Hi RFMad,
Yes that is the message you get when you click the Open button that shows when your mouse is over the train in the train manageger, but you should not get that message when you click on the Dispatch button. When it dispatches then the same button changes to Boost.

They are aware of this problem with the Open button and working on it.

I would have noticed it long before this had that been the case Taz.

Hi Alexm,
The only information we have is what Raul posted.

Hi farmers

Raul has just added a note to point 6 b) in the main post:

b) When unloading a train, if you have at least 3 trains dispatched or ready to unload with 10 cars each, you will earn an extra bonus of 80% of the products delivered by that train. Note that any of your trains have the chance to earn this bonus, not only those with 10 freight cars.

so i just unloaded my train from f40 turbo freight and got 1.8million in normal and 1.2 million in 80% bonus my turbo was also ready on f37 unloaded that and it said i wasn't eligible for the bonus and it gave me just the standard unloaded loot any reason why? both these have 10 carts attached (i have 3 in total with 10)

Hi Alexm,
Did you not get a pop up telling you that you did not have 3 trains dispatched with 10 cars (because the first one you unloaded)? The reason would be if you only have 3 trains with the 10 cars then when you unload the first one you no longer have 3 trains dispatched. What you need to do as I have to do too, is unload the first one, then dispatch it. Once you have done that then you will get the additional products when you unload the second one.

I unloaded 2 trains and got the extra bonus for both.. I have 10 trains and all have over 10 cars on them. Very happy with the bonus.. and my trains seem to be returning home a lot quicker now that I can see how many still need boosting each day,
