Alpha 7 is out at http://www.ttdpatch.net/src/

Aside from fixing the road vehicle refitting bug (and a few others), there 
are several changes.  First of all, Csaba managed to persuade TTD not to 
resort the vehicle list many times a second.  Instead, now it's resorted 
every few second, and you can change the update frequency by the parameter 
given on the "sortvehlist" line.  Also, the selection of sort categories is 
now a dropdown menu, accessed from the same button.

Note that the format of the sort categories in ttdpttxt.txt changed 
slightly.  If you're using this file, you have to remove the initial "\98", 
or they won't have the right colours in the new dropdown menu.

Additionally, I changed the mammoth trains feature so that long trains now 
wrap to the next line in a depot.  This means that now all wagons are 
visible, and can be manipulated.


All changes in 2.0.1 alpha 7:
- correction in newgrf.txt, action 7: descriptions of
   condition-types 4 and 5 were swapped
- added weight override along with power override for train set
   wagons
- forgot to add powered wagons to adhesive weight for realistic
   accel
- fixed bug: road vehicles could not be refitted
- implement plane and train refitting cargo list (props 1D resp. 13)
- fixed bug with tenders not having the correct distance from train
   (tenders with this bug need to be rebought)
- fixed old bug in cht: resetvehicles which reset the selection of
   active graphics to the default, now only cht: graphics does that
- setting train and plane refit property works now, can even make
   train wagons refittable
- by Csaba: make sortvehlist only update every few seconds, settable
   by parameter
- removed sortvar from veh struct, made separate array for it (3.4
   KB * morevehicles)
- new vehicle variable 0x72 counts refitting to same cargo e.g. for
   different types of goods
- improved mammothtrains: now too long trains continue on next row
   of depot
