Ad# 25343 is for Masters 3 from back in August and is no longer relevant.
I would recommend adding this in it's place
-
25343 doesn't load.
this happens on both S1 and M22
I also noticed that it first comes up as 25195 and forwards after 10 seconds to 25343. Very strange
Everytime it comes up, I have to hit reload -
The problem seems to have been resolved. I think the video size was too high. My internet connection sucks so it has problems with 720p. It hasn't repeated, so I assume someone reuploaded a smaller resolution.

Yep, fixed.
Thanks!! -
Display MoreThis is so stupid...take them away for a day then put the things back in. Nice work Rail Nation!
FWIW, I don't have a skip button pop up, so no video's again.
Why couldn't they just leave well enough alone once they got them out?????????????
Apparently someone there really wants me to go to Vienna, since those are the ONLY ads that play.
The skip button won't come up until about 32 seconds in (after you press play). It will display on the lower right corner of the video. Until you run one of these ads it apparently has a serious bias towards it, after you run it, you are unlikely to see it nearly as often.

The railcars sidebar won't populate since the last update. It appears to be a conflict in the margin and/or sizing with the inclusion removal of the scrollbar.
the bottom text flashes between these 2 displays of the message and does not populate

Vienna ads are back as of about 15 minutes ago.
It's the same ID 17149, so somebody did something goofy in the database.
Here the clue you are about to get one:Close and restart is showing an average of these ads at 25:1 Not only are these ads awful, broken and long, but are 25 times more likely to appear.
EDIT: This is not as bad as I thought. The devs worked the YouTube over pretty well, it doesn't auto close at 30 seconds, but they did enable a [Skip AD] after 30 seconds that allows completion, so Kudos! -
I just though of another simple solution.
Put a timer on the video dialog, when the 30 seconds completes, mark the video as watched (return true). It would require modification of theVideoStart()
{
Timer(30)
bViewed = true}
OnClose()
{
If (bViewed)
{
bBonus=true
}
else
{
RestartDialog()
}
}

Didn't pay my bonus prestige and cash after I watched the video. Happened to me several times so I closely check again its not giving me bonus they promised when watching video.
They are aware and are working to remove them. The YouTube ads don't work inside that container.
The worst part of it is that these come up more than 90% of the time now.
-
ok, I did finally get the ID!
17149
All the videos seem to key off that same ID -
The problem isn't really the Vienna ad (outside of all of them being insanely long), it is that the container in Rail Nation doesn't support YouTube ads. The temporary fix, would be to disable the YouTube ads until it can run successfully in the container.
In Phase 2 you could offer a skip after 30 seconds of the ad running. -
-
Another solution, since they don't seem to be interested in fixing this issue. Click on the title of these youTube videos. That will take you to YouTube where you can down-vote them. It won't stop them from appearing, but if the devs don't want to fix the issue and want to unending push 5+ minute ads on us we can make it unattactive to advertise here.
The devs should disable the YouTube ads until they fix it. this is a mess.
-
You can press the play button in the middle of the screen, it's a YouTube video. But even if you play all 5+ minutes of it, you still won't get the bonus. It will cycle forever through it's play list there is no end. Bonuses are dead.
-
I keep getting the Vienna ads which are over 5 minutes long. Even if I wait to the end of them, they just go to a playlist and don't close. They seem to be set to a preference and kills the possibility of collecting the bonus.
