Ah yeah, it ended up being too much for a single README file, but I never got around to splitting all the documentation up properly as its a bit of a bigger task which is still on my list to get through.
Was semi-documented in the changelog at the time, but if you've any questions feel free to ask:
Version: 0.9.0
Date: 2019-12-21
Changes:
- Add supply train dispatching, so a train full of supplies (e.g. an outpost train,
landfill, concrete, etc) can be dispatched to the players location independently
of tnfp trains
- First Steps:
- Enable 'Provide TNfP Supply Train Rail Tool' in your shortcut bar, or go into
the keyboard control settings and define a hotkey for it
- In the keyboard control settings set 'Next Supply Train Station' to your
preference. It defaults to CTRL+EQUALS but CTRL+MOUSE_WHEEL_UP is better
- Supply stations are added via the 'TNfP Supply Station' virtual signal, in
the same way as normal tnfp stations. The signal value will determine the
order they're listed (lowest first)
- Ensure you dont have duplicate signal values, it will ignore them
- Trains must be in automatic mode waiting at a signalled supply station to be
available
- Usage:
- Use the 'Provide TNfP Supply Train Rail Tool hotkey or shortcut to get a
special railtool
- Select the train you want to dispatch (using the 'Next Supply Train Station'
keyboard shortcut, default CTRL+EQUALS)
- Drag the railtool over a valid train stop and the train will be dispatched to
that location. On arrival it will switch to manual mode and reset its
schedule
