What Berry said. I’m not asking to drive I’m asking to manage my train operations for shunting and movement of freight. Would be nice not to see my train just do an instant 180 to start driving the opposite direction, and it would be cool to have trains assemble them selves in a yard to take out your mixed goods train.
I would like to see trains load their cargo, example- A port has cranes that load the stack or double stacks onto flatbeds/ intermodule cars. I would like to see that in game, not just stuff getting stocked up on a platform and then disappears when the train arrives.
I’d also like the ability to drop certain freight at certain locations.
I really wish I could edit that first post, lol. I was thinking way faster than my fingers were typing…
Hmmm.. I also thought we would see loading of the train cars. Kinda like sid meiers railroads. It is a neat feature/eye candy. How does oil and wood works for loading? Is it like coal where they deliver the coal to the station for pick up? I think annexes would be much better instead of a stationS. Perhaps have it attach right off the industries? Watch the coal slide right into hoppers etc
Will there be any form of ports? So we can have stack and Double stack cars? Trains do service ports ALOT.
I understand models are a go for modding, but i was wondering if the devs could put some input on what modders can do.
I think it looks great. What I want in a Business sim like this is for the ability to create rail yards for sorting cargo loads for another main line train to pull. By what you mean?
Perhaps having a locomotive specifically take train cars from a coal mine loaded to a local yard. Lets say there are 5-10 tracks in the yard. Train drops off consist in track 3 and a locomotive sitting there couples up and pulls out, or perhaps waits for more trains cars or something. I just wish a business sim would actually incorporate alot of railroad operations. Not to mention flip around trains at stations, wish there was something to get rid of this.
I wonder if a mod to could come along and actually change these dynamics.. think this would be possible?
