capacity – Train Fever Official Website (archived) Sat, 25 Jun 2016 10:09:44 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 Longer Trains /forums/topic/longer-trains/ Sat, 25 Jun 2016 10:09:44 +0000 /forums/topic/longer-trains/ Continue reading ]]> So, I’ve seen in several places where people want longer trains, and the agreed on method of doing so is to lower the capacity of wagons so you use more. BUT, I’ve only seen the Cargo Mod (I think it was that one) actually make it happen, and it seems to do so manually (the creator manually edited each wagon in the mod) so non mod wagons are uneffected. I decided to change that.

I believe I have a working script that cuts the capacity and weight of every rail wagon (including mod wagons) in half, and with a price mod of your choice you can then cut the price and running cost in half, and it’ll effectively be exactly the same, but twice as long.

That said, should I just implement the prices into this mod? And should I cut loading speed in half as well?
Should I try to refine it to industry wagons only since passenger wagons never really had a length issue?
I’ll also be working on getting it to be configurable with TFGM’s built in config tab, but I’m not a coder, so I don’t know how long this will take.

Anyone have any thoughts on this or want it for testing purposes? Is this even a thing people are still interested in?

Can the capacity of a Truck Station be changed? /forums/topic/can-the-capacity-of-a-truck-station-be-changed/ Tue, 16 Sep 2014 14:16:49 +0000 /forums/topic/can-the-capacity-of-a-truck-station-be-changed/ Continue reading ]]> Hey guys,

I’m actually surprised so little people have addressed this problem earlier, but it’s really bugging me.

The maximum capacity I’ve seen on a large truck station (for one platform) is about 16. For me, this is just not enough. I’ve got a single line from a oil well to a refinery. The oil well produces about 400, which means oil comes in big flows, I estimate about 40 units at a time. Now I have a 40 ton truck waiting all the time, so 20 units are transported immediately. In the time it takes the next truck to pull up (which was waiting behind) the other 20 ish units have reached the truck station. But the problem: There are only 16 units available, because the truck station can’t handle more.

Could anyone please tell me how I can change the capacity of the truck station, if it is possible?

Tim

Station capacity /forums/topic/station-capacity/ Tue, 09 Sep 2014 13:09:58 +0000 /forums/topic/station-capacity/ Continue reading ]]> A little suggestion, I’d like each station (specially cargo) will show the max. capacity when selected, so I know when limit is reached and should add another.

It also should display as a tooltip when you select from the build menu.
