Hand Car GFX

Post by WWTBAM »

I decided I would like to see a handcar in TTD even if its useless. I was thinking it could be used to pull a single empty wagon from depot to depot or just for show in yards with wagons. Here is the first sprite the _ sprite, please tell me what you think. I got my refrence pic from http://www.kamrail.com/images/photos/rs ... ndcar2.gif

Not bad :)

Are you going to animate it? Four frames ( \ - / - ) should be enough. ;)

Hmm...

The diagonal isn't quite right, you've got the ends as horizontal lines when they should be diagonal.

Attached is my 3/8 length vehicle template, it may be useful to you. :)

Naa, I like this idea. A novelty item, perhaps, but it'd be quite amusing in game. Do it, Robo, do it!
