I could add a forum, but Im too lazy to do so... besides, for now the site will just have info on the trains and have the download (as well as here)

I started to code the trains what done, but i'm newbie in GRF coding, so I can't do all of that because I can't do complex codes...
The current:

Screenies

I definitly have to improve shading.

Lol! But, still, it looks good just for the first 2 Locos So far, its semi functional, as theres still no Tanker, Mail (or Utility Car), Covered Hopper (for Farm Goods and Waste)

BTW Colossal, think in the GRF Name (what you see in the grf list)

Generic Train Renewal Set MS 0001

(and In the info part)

Generic Train Renewal Set MS 0001

Artists : Nekomaster

colossal404
Coders : colossal404

I coded in the Colossal loco too, but it's available from 2021, and i'm working on to broke 3 parts and these are be at the front of the wagons. And I know, the weigh and power were halfed, but it's a mistake.

The MS short of what? I think not Microsoft

If some new loco/rolling stock were included in the set I will correct the name and other things.

MS = Milestone as this is not a Alpha nor a Beta yet, as their isn't even enough locos\wagons\cars to make a functional set yet, btw, if you can, could you please do up a full sprite sheet for that Whale Belly Tanker I did last night

Yes, I do the tanker, but remember, I'm not a drawing machine. If I have time I will draw something, but I don't have unlimited free time.
Grf attached.

Thanks, Sorry, its just I really wanted that Tanker in as since its actually an American thing, it should be in the NARS set but I guess for balance reasons pika didn't put one is

Ok, but the 150 ton of oil isn't a bit untrue? Just 2-3 wagons and you transported a medium produced oil well's monthly production...
And if you want to made my work easyer just don't draw too many things what longer than 32 pixels, and don't write the price and running cost in dollars, preferable the "x" as unit. It can be between 1 and 255.
For example, the passenger carriage is now on 189x, the electric loco's price is 95x and running cost is 75x.
The "x" real value is different for wagons and engines, so 1x of the wagon not = 1x of an engine.
Thanks.

Alright, um, maybe scale it down either 80 Liters (which is still A LOT) as yes, even I relise thats too much, 10 Tankers holding 150 Liters will handle 1,500,000 Liters

Anyways, I write in USD because I don't know how much 1x or 50x would really be...

also only the Colossal Trains are over sized.

[maths_bof_mode] no no no no no 150litres x 10 = 1500litres [/maths_bof_mode]

Ok, this one was quick and its kinda pathetic, but it might be useful for either messing around, or small lines, like between a Steel mill and factory or as a mine train, going from a coal mine to the train station.

Oops, I ment 150,000 Liters, as thats close to the largest ever put in service from GTAX

[maths_bof_mode] yep thats 150,000 x 10 = 1,500,000 *wagging finger* you should be more clear[/maths_bof_mode]

Lol, anyways have you checked this out yet? theres not much but so far its fun

140 tons for this tiny loco??
Ugh... The MLD EDP 23 was only 130 tons and and thah has 2350 HP.

But you can correlate the loco's prices to each other. I can't code them with USD, because only the x-s show the correct scale between 1x and 10x, if I code them in USD sometimes the 2000$ is more than 6000$.

Corrected its weight, its suppose to be 45 Tonnes, and its more or less just a powerful Truck engine on rails

Anyways, how much does 1x come out to? and how about 255x?

Ok, heres some more Wagons\Cars in 2cc :3

Capacity : 40 Tonnes of Coal
Refitable to : Coal, Iron Ore, Sand (FIRS), Gravel (FIRS)

------------------

By the way, Colossal, sorry to make you do more work, but the Whale Belly tanker is also suppose to be able to Carry Goods , Fruit (In tropic) and Livestock

No problem, these coding things were easy, just a few click. But the tanker doesn't need another graphics for another cargos?

colossal404 wrote:No problem, these coding things were easy, just a few click. But the tanker doesn't need another graphics for another cargos?

*shakes head* No, its a tanker, though in real life you would need to change the contents sign if it holds checmicals. Also, do you know how to add support for FIRS? Basically if you can add support for ECS that should work, as I would lik this set to be compatible with FIRS

So, chaneges to be made :
Whale Belly Tanker : 80,000 Liters of Oil, Goods, Fruits (Fruits and Veggies in FIRS), Livestock (Milk in FIRS), Chemicals (FIRS) Farm Supplies (FIRS) \ Max Speed : 80 MPH
3rd Gen Pax Coach : 45 Passengers \ Max Speed : 110 MPH
GRS Bethgon Hopper : 60 Tonnes Coal, Iron ore, Sand (FIRS), Gravel (FIRS), Waste (FIRS, use scrap metal Sprites), 40 Tonnes Scrap Metal (FIRS) \ Max Speed : 85 MPH
