Rail Upgrade Mod

Adds various rail-related upgrades/items.

Locomotives

• Stack size is increased to 20 for every locomotives.

• Each locomotive has a unique minimap icon for easier identification.

• Light weight locomotives

• Have same acceleration as original but are lighter. (Hyper-level has slightly higher acceleration)

• Improved versions need low density structures.

• Hyper-level needs carbon fiber in space age.

• More suitable for short-distance transport.

• Displayed as a green icon on the minimap.

• High-speed locomotives

• Have higher acceleration, but are heavier.

• Additional materials are required. Also, improved versions need low density structures.

• Hyper-level needs tungsten in space age.

• More suitable for long-distance transport.

• Displayed as a blue icon on the minimap.

Cargo wagons & fluid wagons

• Stack size is increased to 40.

• Lighter variants have less cargo space.

• Heavier variants have more cargo space.

Advanced rails

• New railroads requiring tungsten plates and carbon fiber.

• In exchange for the high cost, production rate is high, and stack size is larger.

• Removal speed is twice as fast.

• Good for massive railway production on various planets.

• Supports elevated rails and can connect to vanilla railroads.

Technologies

• Light weight locomotive (1~3)

• High-speed locomotive (1~3)

• Advanced rail

• Infinite rail productivity (10% per level)

• Infinite braking force upgrade (15% per level)

Plans

• Add recipes for space age

• Balancing

This is my first factorio mod ever, so it is more like practice for making mods.

Any feedbacks are welcome!
