Modern Bulk Rail Loaders
Modern Bulk Rail Loaders is a complete remake of the original bulk rail loaders mod, and even includes a new visual design. In its current form it's very fast, transferring 40 stacks a second.
To get started, click on a train stop.
Features
- Unloader and loader that are the same item
- Automatic placement via train stops
- Somewhat UPS optimized a little bit
Automatic loader placement
Swap between train loader and train unloader
Set size in settings
coming soon
- Bulk rail unloader graphic
- Colorable silos
- Logistic silos
- Rewriting it to use simple entities instead of luaRendering sprites
- Even more UPS optimizations
- Support for various mods
- Proper support for Cybersyn (most other train managers already work, and Cybersyn does have partial support if you manually set train allow-lists or disable them entirely)
Misc
This is the first mod I've ever made (also my first time using blender). Hopefully everything works (all functionality is working for me) but there will probably be bugs I didn't notice, let me know if you find any and I will fix them. I tried to make it intuitive to use, you don't place down any new items, but there's new UI added to train stops as well as new UI added to train loaders.
The mod is overpowered in its current form, I will l be balancing it later. Yet I also want the mod to be good, the whole point of having a gigantic gravity assisted loader is that it can use gravity to move items quickly into a train.
