Example: make a train transport iron ore from A to B, then it visits a depot and refits to steel
It then transport steel back to A or near A if there is a factory and then it visits another depot to refit to iron ore again
This is controlled in the orders. If a goto depot order is lightlighted, then "Unload" changes to "Refit"
Control click "Refit" removes the refit part of the order (as the tooltip says)
The player will still pay the normal refit costs
Known issues:
If a vehicle is not in a depot, then the refit window will fail to tell refitted cargo capacity
Refit costs in the refit window can sometimes print 0 when it should not because the refit calculation is unaware that the vehicle will be refitted in between
Warning: autoreplace got a protection against replacing something so you get a new cargo type, but it can fail here. In the iron ore/steel example, it can see that
the vehicle carries iron ore and the new one can be refitted to iron ore, then it will replace. It will not check to see that it's valid for steel as well.
This is something to look into in the future
It's right below the sell button (sell whole chain button for trains)
It's still missing a sprite. That one will be added as soon as anybody draws something we can use
To make room for this button, all depots except train depots now opens with an additional row and can't be resized shorter than that
As side effect this is a
-Fix: The default AI tried to change the service intervals of vehicles via the CMD_CHANGE_TRAIN_SERVICE_INT command - regardless of the type of the vehicle - which of course failed for non-trains
-This allows a player to clone an excisting vehicle of his own
-[fix]: this uncovered an excisting bug in CmdBuildRailVehicle() where depots could build trains of the wrong track type. This is fixed
-Thanks to Celestar for drawing the sprites and _luca_ for including them in openttd.grf
- CodeChange: remove cmd-misuses CmdStartScenario() and CmdDestroyCompanyHQ()
- Fix (invisible): when parameter checking CmdRestoreOrderIndex() the vehicle did not have its orders yet, so it would fail. So move doing this until AFTER the orders have been added back in RestoreVehicleOrders()
- Fix: [ 1197256 ] max station spread patch < 7 does not work. Station spread was not taking into account when not using drag&drop. Fix this up, and add a callback to the settings window to immediately reflect the changes.
a single station.

This feature works much like autorenew, but it will get you a new engine type instead of a new one of the same type. Once
ordered, it will automatically replace the engines while they visits a depot. The GUI for setting this up have been added on the
vehicle overview windows
Note: autorenew is now autoreplace, but to the same engine type
Nice new features, that was added to make this possible
- windows can now have two independant vertical scrollbars
- CMD_SHOW_NO_ERROR have been added as a flag for DoCommandP. It will make it do the action instead of showing the red box with
estimated costs even if shift is pressed
- fixed problem where enginetypes where not initialized when loading a game. It's now done in InitializeGame()
