It got cancelled because the AI were too dumb to use it.  :-\

If the AI can fly a plane, drive a tank and ride a motorbike. I'm sure it can operate a cable car. Whats there to do, walk up to it, get in and push a button.

i wouldn't have thought it required even that much effort on the ai's part - a cablecar is basically just a vehicle that goes very slowly along one trajectory and with another exactly like itself coming in the opposite direction. if it's animations for the loons that's causing hassle, i'd be satisfied even with the current animation for 'getting into' something. the screenshot looked pretty impressive. what was up with the project? can anyone speak german enough to get in touch with them? ich kann doch ein wenig, aber unterhalten? spinst du oder was?

na ja. cable car or keine kabel kar, i'm doing my 'where eagles dare' pastiche darnit. it's just too good a plotline not to borrow....

Also here's what was said after I asked if they could release it like it is:

"hm i can't do anything for that issue. the addon maker is not a team member and it is quite hard to meet him ... "

So I guess the maker of it is not a team member so they can't contact him ???

Well the A.I. is quite dumb they can't ride my (well I was just messing about) tram (it's just a 5 ton truck that can't turn) they go forwards then try to turn but just go backwards so they don't do to well. :tomato:

If the AI can drive the Train Addon I dont see why they cant drive a cable car...
The AI moved trains around fine and i even got some to hook up the train cars and stuff..
