Train Loading Times

Post by Drengin »

Q> Is there a way to reduce the loading time on the carriages that do not fit in the stations please?

I have a coal train 25 carriages long and obviously it does not fit into the station and the end carriages take forever to load.

Use a longer station or smaller train.

ROFL Thanks IA i worked that one out but was wondering if there was a way to alter it if you dont use that. Plus i would rather not use the long station mod.
Is there a mod that allows stations on bends too?

There was someone working on one but that was on diagonal, not corners. And as far i know its not possible to load faster.

OK thanks for the answer IA. Damn... corner stations would have been perfect for longer trains too.

With the long station patch I fill trains with 40 cars behind it in seconds...I know you will rather not use it, but as far as I know that's the only way.

Corner stations are possible, you just have to change the xml of a station. But: There are no graphics for that (for diagonals stations there are graphics, don't ask me why Chris disabled this). If you want to delete this invisible corner piece, you have to delete the track segment.
