Try to clone using Ctrl+Click. Click only clones the vehicle, but it does not share the orders by default. IIRC it is explained on a tooltip, but it is one of those "hidden" features.

It really works, thanks a lot, Jose!

I think it's a very wrong behavior because cloning means 1-to-1 copy >without< any local changes.

I believe there are 2 solutions:

1. Clone 1-to-1 without fancy explicit stuff.
2. Rename button "Clone vehicle" to "Make a copy of a vehicle with random set of properties". That will be fair enough.

IMHO, by default, it will be better to clone 1-to-1.

If somebody doesn't want to make an exact copy he should use Ctrl-Click. Isn't it that obvious?

This shouldn't be changed. Putting aside the implications of changing behaviour and pissing off thousands off players...

The current clone is correct. It creates an exact copy. The source for the clone is always unchanged by the clone.

In the case that the source for the clone doesn't have shared orders, making shared orders would modify the source. That's not correct for an exact copy.

andythenorth closed the ticket.

Reason for closing: Won't implement

Current behaviour is expected behaviour.
