[NFO] How to make an "older" vehicle-set tramtype aware
Posted: 24 Nov 2021 13:45
Hi all,
I am trying to make some changes to one of the older vehicle-sets, HEQS.
I would like to make it possible for the industrial non-electrical trams to drive on an un-electrified tramtrack.
At the moment that is not possible, they only drive on electrified tramtracks and can only be bought at the electrified tramdepots.
I have not much experience with vehicle coding, so asking here is probably a lot faster than me just fiddeling around
For as far as I understand it now, I think I need to add a Tramtype Translation Table, should that look like this:
And then I need to referr to that in the Action-0 of the tram, right?
But how exactly?
If I understand correctly, I need to add prop-05, but where and what should it look like?
Here I have an example of the Action-0 of a steamtram from HEQS:
What and where should I change/add the Action-0?
Are any other changes needed too? For example the Action-0's of the wagons too?
Thanks in advance!
