Go away you filthy spamer. We don't even understand a word of what you're trying to tell us, and it appears like the wrong character set (likely because I don't even want/need Cyrillic)
anyway, the eis_ois mod is a good mod... now only if CO (or he, but hard to script) would give us building block stations...

What is building block stations?
You can have block houses in Hybrids Modding Garage. Also on the wiki.
I think this spam thing would be solved if they add a captcha to the registration process.
He means a station that can be built from seperate pieces. Like a piece for a platform, a piece for stairs, entry, etc.)

Getting a basic tram underground station to work (so people are seen) is higher priority for me.

Underground trams seem so much easier than changing the entire ingame mechanics for adding the building blocks stations. I hope that gets added in CiM2...
I can't say that is true. Getting a way to even build a tram line compatible station was a nightmare.
Since November I try to get a functional platform for a underground tram station working, simple the passengers refuse to use it. So I started from scratch, now directly with two sides, still no luck, I even have now the problem that the platforms are switched, aka the wrong side is highlighted + the second one isn't click able at all. If it won't work in January I will stop my work on it.

Is there a chance you will release a beta version with only underground tracks and ground-to-underground transfer? (without the stations)
The problem with beta version is, I am not able to change my mind and change something without killing save-game compatibility. And currently I still have so many objects missing. Specially without junctions the underground tram tracks are pointless.
But let's move the discussion about underground tram stuff:

A great solution (don't know if it was discussed yet) would be some kind of underground "road" made for passengers to walk in. This way we could add another station nearby the old one and connect them without forcing the passengers to go outside. The same is done with eis_os mod, but what if I want to make a 6 way station?
I have seen this suggestion mentioned before on another website. There was also mention of creating public walkways to link up metro with busses, trams and road crossings.
It would definately be a good addition to the subway network and the game in general.

I've suggested this here before. I have given it's some thought and I think there are things to consider. When you are a placing a station in the game, you see the green "ring"(with lack of a better word) around the station which tells you potential passengers. The center of this "ring" is the platform and not the entrance/exit of the station itself.
I do believe with walkways this "ring" should be altered to something more complex since I've seen ridiculous long walkways IRL before. They are not very popular, but I think people do complain less about them than just walking om the street when changing lines. I do not know how you could work this out the best.
This is something I consider for the metro upgrade:
The whole station as of today should be in pieces.
-Entrance/exit.
-Stairs.
-Escalator.
-Elevator(to increase attractiveness for disabled people).
-Big entrance. Something like this that offers the whole package.
-Lobby.
-Stairs and escalator.
-Platform.
-Walkways.
-Small walkway and wide walkway to handle huge amount of passengers.
-Moving walkway to increase attractiveness
-Different levels all the way from bottom to lobby level.
-Slopes(with moving walkway), stairs and escalators.
Tunnels
More tunnels too choose from. 1, 2, 3, 4 track with good merging capability and better priority for handling of trains.
Kind of went overboard with this post.
Not all of these are important, but I do believe they will ad more playability to the game.I've suggested this here before. I have given it's some thought and I think there are things to consider.

There are some very good suggestions there.
I have thought also that it would be good if we could have connections to allow us to add bus, tram pickup points from the subway station which could be connected via walkways from subway platforms directly to a bus, tram stop.
This would be far easier than having to place bus and tram stops within close range of a subway station.
And you get complaints due to overcrowding. Also, the big station entrance idea should be divided in eras, and you should be able to choose. For instance, you'll start off in the early ages with Leslie Green façades (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bb/Russell_Square_station.jpg), but at some point others become available, then the variety of Charles Holden façades become available (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Holden#London_Transport), in the late 1960's/early 1970's you'll get a large building like this (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/39/Brixton_Tube_2006-04-22.jpg), and at some point in the 1990s you'll be able to build Jubilee line extension like stations (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/ce/Canary_wharf_tube_station_750px.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e1/Canada_Water_station_building.JPG)
of course, these are London ideas, but the London ones might be the most influential and best known.

Another thought that I had for the metro.
It would be nice to be able to colour code my subway lines to make them easier to identify.
I would also make it easier to identify diffrent track depths if they were colour coded also but done slightly diffrent, E.G If I had a line colour coded in "red" then the deeper the line(1,2 or 3) the darker the colour.

Thanks very much. Awsome MOD.
