Title: Add jobs to rail stations
Post by: longhorn2 on March 07, 2011, 09:14:17 AM
I've lotted a rail station to serve two transit lines.  One coming in diagonally and one coming in straight.  Transit switching appears to be working fine, at least it was before I added jobs.  I'm having trouble lining up the diagonal platforms with diagonal viaduct rail, but that is a different issue.

The main problem I'm having is adding jobs to the station.  Part of the lot is a tower, so I wanted to add enough jobs to accommodate the tower and the station.
The original lot is based off Maxis' original passenger station.  In fact the station building is hidden under the tower prop.

I've added the Capacity Satisfied and Purpose properties to the exemplar.  Purpose is set to services.  Nobody goes to it for work, and I can open the properties query box, but when i close it, it crashes to desktop.

Is there a way to fix this?  I appreciate the help.

You can't add RCI jobs to a civic building, and you can't mix RCI and civic building properties. Actually, stations do have jobs by default (civic jobs), those are added by the "Demand Created" property.

Thanks.  So all I have to do is delete the capacity satisfied and purpose properties, and up the demand created to the amount of jobs I want?  I assumed demand created was a demand effect rather than station jobs.
