Summary of Locomotive Changes
Standard locomotives have higher speeds in some conditions, but take a long time to get up to speed.
Hybrid and Nuclear locomotives, increased acceleration, so they get up to higher speeds faster at a slight increase in power requirement.
Junk train locomotive had to have lowered air resistance so it could approach the same speeds on junk rails.
Fuel Modifications
Original trains are mostly limited by their max_speed setting; and therefore the fuel modifier of top_speed_multiplier affects
their top end speed. Solid fuel has a top speed multiplier of 1.05, rocket fuel has a top speed multiplier of 1.15. Becuase train
max speed is now basically uncapped, this multiplier needs to be expressed as an acceleration modifier instead.
-
Solid Fuel
- Decrease acceleration modifer from 1.2 to 1.1
-
Rocket Fuel
- Decrease acceleration modifier form 1.8 to 1.25
Existing Issues
Rail Power System mod requires updates to allow me to connect to cement and bridge rails. A work-around is to connect a segment of standard
powered rail to cement or bridge rails and use that to connect a rail power pole. Also, the internal max power transfer for hybrid trains
is hard coded to a small value, so new trains will be limited in speed, unable to draw the full 1500kW power from the rails.
Cargo Wagon max speeds are left un modified; this may limit trains more than they should.
Changelog
0.0.703
- add compatibility with More Trains
- fixes bad water rail penalty application on Bio Industries wood bridge
0.0.702
- fix compatibilty with RPS 0.1.4 so I don't REQUIRE update to that.
- add optional mod dependancies
- increase cargo-wagon and fluid-wagon max_speed
0.0.701
- rebalance rail modifiers so they're all less than 1
- rebalance train performance for all rails being a penalty
- rebalance fuel type bonuses to acheive effective max speed bonus
- add FARL compatibility modification (untested balance)
- add Electric Trains compatibility (untested balance)
- add Fusion Locomotive compatibilty (untested balance)
- add Yuoki Industries - Railroads compatibility (untested balance)
- add YIR - Uranium Power Trains compatiblity (untested balance)
- add YIR - Youki Industry Railroads compatiblity (untested balance)
0.0.5
- fix bridge power rails.
- Fix placing power poles to power new cement and bridge types.
- Add update accumulators already on the map to the new required value
- add a bridge rail accumulator for placing powered bridge rails.
- tweaked junk train settings a little to make it a hair faster; normal player walk speed is 32kph, and the reduced value (30kph) I decided was
too slow; so increased it to 33.1kph.
0.0.4
- improved optional mod dependancy behavior; only define rail types to track based on which mods had been loaded.
