Trains by danekbel [pre-release 1]

[danekbel]

It's my try to implement train system in TheoTown.

Plug-in includes:
- railways, the same copy of the ones in in-game trains, but in road. Bridge graphics are included.
- trains: blue and red suburban trains and cargo train.

Pre-release update 1
- added three new train stations
- redesigned trains
- added some decorative stuff
- category inside the train category (only for toolbar, if you have your toolbar turned off, it would be as separate category)
- some small bugfixes
- removed 1x1 boxes. They were replaced by ingame containers which spawn cargo train and @KINGTUT10101's stop, which spawn suburban trains.
- moved to in-game train category
- added crossing rails, which allow cars to ride on it
- deleted some obsolete textures

Thanks to @Lobby and @KINGTUT10101 for graphics and code.

Updated the first post

Maybe I will be able to find some time to help you with stations. Unless you want to do them yourself, of course.

I don't think I'll make something nice, so yeah, I'll be glad if you will help me

[THEMAX]

I could help you with train stations

[cesareborgia94]

I think I will wait for the train station update before trying this excellent plugin. Nicely done

[danekbel]

In my idea, I want stations look next way:

Train station

Cargo station

Passenger train stop

I tried to do something, but I only did this:

But, as you can see, this leaves much to be desired... stupid autocorrect

- trains: blue and red suburban trains and cargo train.

WIP:
- borders in bridge graphics: parts of trains could be visible behind them
- train and cargo stations: for now they're just some weird cubes, because I can't draw fancy graphics

Thanks to @Lobby and @KINGTUT10101 for graphics and code.

Great stuff!
But if you have problems with the borders, why even bother with those weird pinkish rails anyway?
I think it would look far better, if you used regular rails, like those that there were in the early version of Theotown before it became an android game. Ground rails like that wouldn't need any borders.
For the bridge parts, you could use the grey version that I made a while ago, if you like:

I solved this problem in a new update

Hey, maybe you can facilitate the inter-station. We were planning it already with different train makers. @KINGTUT10101 @Lobby @Kulche @Borbor

What do you mean by "inter-station"?

[22Alpha]

Like the airport, except trains are coming.

It is like trains from Germany, France, Spain can pass throguh Italy in one station. Or Spain, France can have a rest on Germany for the last station.

I don't think it's possible to make it with plug-ins

I think Kingtut knows how to make a start.

What we planned on doing is making all of our trains cross compatible. I suggested we all used the same flag to achieve this effect.

[22Alpha]

There you have it. I even use flag tram since it is a general flag for trains.

[KINGTUT10101]

What flags are you using @danekbel ?

I'm using flag user5, but I can change it to flag tram
