Sweet Thanks for the info!
Either I've always been playing too honestly, or this bribery is a new feature that I didn't have back then in the version I played.
It's a TTDPatch feature.

Personally I never use it, by the time my rate's near Mediocre I'm caught and it goes back to Appaling :angry:

Then you weren't rich enough for those (exclusive rights are about $1m)

Btw, anyone ever noticed the X-Com references in the game?


"Train + UFO" disaster.

Left corner, arctic Snowy Peaks map.

Looks like Chris Sawyer was a fan of X-Com

They are the disasters, , for monorail a UFO land over the track and it´s blowed off by the X-Com, in water there are submarines(i saw them but never saw an attack over a ship), a smaller UFO can colided with your road units, a zepelin crash over an airport and if a plane try to land in these airport before removed, u will got a plane crash

Anyway, i didn´t know of the X-com HQ

It might have just been an in-joke, Microprose made both games.

Still pretty amusing though...

The submarines don't do anything, they were put at Microprose's request to link with another game they were marketing at the time.
And UFOs don't just land on monorail, they also like railway and maglev :P though they only show up later in the game.
