Mission Editor - trains

[Gierasimov]

Hi,

Does the inclusion of objects and Mission Editor options for trains mean that we should be able to use it for missions building now?

 

I placed the train in Persian Gulf - set its composition in ME as well as start on tracks (defaulted to train depot in Dubai) but it is not there while in mission.

 

WIP or a bug I wonder?

 

PS: Train depot in Dubai is an asset that has got name starting as BAGRAM_... and does look like military structure :) I wonder, if it is the same Bagram (ICAO:OAIX)...

Its been there for a while, but it was only present if you had the WW2 asset pack installed as it contained the only trains in the game up until today. Now the Modern US style train is in the game by default, so everyone has that icon now.

 

It doesn't have the icon for the F10 map in game, but you can use Ctrl+F12 to spectate. There are lots of "quirks' with trains at the moment. For instance they do not stop, several triggers are kinda broken with em, and they will not exist if a valid path is not found. Just make sure there are cars on the train, and the path follows the route of the rail line.

 

Yeah there are loads of world objects with odd names from, what we can assume, other projects. For example Las Vegas has a few "Azerbaijan Light Pole" objects.
