What's new:

Fixed bugs: (0.84.2.2)
 - Serious problem in vehicle movement code in all 0.84.x versions so far: 
     sometimes vehicles stopped too late, and i.e. missed a signal and got stuck. 
 - Minor problem in reading the simuconf.tab got fixed. display_height is now read correctly 
     (formerly there was a typo, Simutrans looked for "display_heigth")

New features: 
 - Code now supports speed limits for bridges (not complete yet) 
 - Bridge menu handling completely rewritten 
 - Tree planting tool (hotkey /) 

Improvements: 
 - Vehicle info window now shows total running cost an minimum max speed. 
 - Line selection in depot window got a drop-down list 
 - simuconf.tab now got entries for default resolution and PAK file path. 

Fixed bugs: 
- At least the one case of stuck vehicle that KaCzachs save game displayed is fixed. 

The others are minor changes and improvements, see the change log below.

Changes:

15-Feb-04
FIX: added ø character to prop.fnt (needed for danish translation)
CHANGE: included updated danish translation from Finn Rosenbech Jensen (not yet using ø, was made for former font version)
NEW: included new, downscaled, oil rig from 128x128 pixel tileset made by James Starr
WARNING: this one is 3x3 squares - the old one was 2x2 if you load old games, that have things near oil rigs, there might be bad effects if the new oil rigs overlap the existing things!
WORKAROUND: get the old factory.Oelbohrinsel.pak from the 0.84.0.1 base package and use it instead of the new one.

14-Feb-04
FIX: fixed a bug that could cause a truck with a trailer to wait for itself to clear the road (= was stuck)
NEW: added "topspeed" parameter to bridge dat files
CHANGE: removed bridgepos parameter from bridge dat files
NEW: speed limit for bridges (not really sure if that works for sure it won't affect existing bridges in old games, only newly built bridges)
NEW: bridge tool tooltips now list additional information (price, speed limit)
WARNING: the changes to the bridge DAT/PAK files introduced a slight incompatibilty with former bridge PAK files:
the old files do not store icon information for the menu. Thus if you use old PAK files with this version, the bridge tools menu will show emty icons. The tooltips will help to identify the correct sort of bridge.
-> ATM this only affects the 128x128 pixel tile set and selfmade bridges. Both must be updated to include icon information and recompiled with MakeObj 0.1.6
-> See datfiles_15-Feb-04.zip for examples (MakeObj forum, examples section)

12-Feb-04
NEW: added more simuconf.tab entries
NEW: new toolbar like tool chooser window (will be used to select bridge types and way types)
CHANGE: changed bridge tool selector to use the new tool chooser

NEW (by Hendrik): line selection in depot window now got a drop-down list (click into the input field to open)
CHANGE (by Hendrik): vehicle info window now shows total running cost
NEW: a simple tree planting tool (hotkey /)
CHANGE: vehicle info window shows top speed limit and max top speed of the pulling engine
