Mini Trains Lead the Way

Make mini trains available and mandatory before regular trains. Mini trains are adorable, compact vehicles from the Mini Trains by Klonan mod, designed to add early-game train functionality.

Features and Changes

  • Rearranges the research tree to unlock mini trains at the Automation Science Pack stage.
  • Changes the mini locomotive recipe to use iron gear wheels instead of engine units, allowing crafting without requiring Logistic Science.
  • Makes the fluid wagon to be unlocked at the Railway tech and shifts the mini fluid wagon to be unlocked at the Fluid Wagon tech (fluid wagon tech is also moved closer in research tree).
  • Pushes regular trains further back in the research tree, unlocking them only after Logistics 3.

Optional Tweaks

  • Adds mini trains and wagons as ingredients in regular train recipes. (Default: enabled).
  • If Wooden Logistics by SafTheLamb is installed, replaces some steel with lumber in mini train recipes. (Default: enabled).
  • Optionally reduces mini trains’ max speed and acceleration for more engaging gameplay. (Default: disabled).
  • Adds an option to choose what happens with regular trains: they can be delayed (Default state), pushed to Vulcanus, pushed to Fulgora, they can even be disabled, so that you can only use mini trains.

Compatibility

  • Space Age
  • Mini trains by Klonan
  • AAI Industry by Earendel
  • Wooden Logistics by SafTheLamb
