Railroad Movement - Bug or Feature?

[hoeleng]

Noticed something strange with the railroad with regard to movement. Its stated that it takes 1/10 MP with railroad. However, it seems that every unit can only move 10 squares regardless of the movement points they have.

For example, the Indian Fast Worker has 3MP, so i assume with railroads they can move 30 squares but it only moves 10 squares. Is this intended?

I believe this is as intended - simulating the unit getting on a train and moving, the train doesn't move faster because it's hauling rabbits rather than tortoises...

It's intended. 10 squares is the maximum you can move on a railroad.

It is intended. Otherwise it would be almost the same as Civ3, and there would've been really no point.

yes, 10max, and its perfect this way...now it's strategy and not large-army vs large army

If you put a horse on a train, the train will not run faster then
if you put a worker on that train....
