Choo Choo [ a Little Project ]

[RedKetchup]

back to drawing

i just modified just a little bit the train so it looks more "Banished" ? ^^
the rear part is now full wood instead of iron.

Really like this idea. Any idea when it will be available for testing?

Really like this idea. Any idea when it will be available for testing?

there wont be alot of testing before it will kinda rdy. When the whole will be done, i will release it as fully working mod (as 1.0) and if no bugs, it will stay like that unless i need to make a bugfix (then will be a 1.1)
and then i will never touch it back, will never add things to it.

the only thing maybe , i ll do a version compatible with NMT (for NMT resources)
and if CC Crew want to release one with CC resources... will be up to BlackLiquid.


last thing for tonight :
first draw of a wagon ?? (not 100% definitive like that, but mostly. I need to fix that stupid "moiré" as much as i can)

this Train Wagon 1 will act as a mini barn (just for food things)
capacity of 1000-2000 weight.

Again, great work RedKetchup you are always bringing new ideas to the world of banished!

So the railway pieces are decorative? do they have a cost to build?

I would like to try making some good roads to go under the railway sleepers..?

Some good gravel types, plus stone for town/cities, faster speed and possibly with an extra cost? (it is a railway - half the world went bankrupt and into perpetual debt building their lines)
1-2 Stone per tile, 1-2 work?

Again, great work RedKetchup you are always bringing new ideas to the world of banished!

i am trying to give them a "banished" look instead of real life look.


the tracks cost something, 2wood + 2iron, they are decorative , they allow road be built under it
and will be ghosted to be able to be removed

[RedKetchup]

i ve reduced length of the wagon 1 and made some color variation (a more washed by rainand time, and one more like the barn/house color)

[RedKetchup]

Train Wagon 2 for the other items ?
clothing, tool, health, textile, alcohol

capacity 1000-2000 (not defined yet as wagon1)

Nice work, @RedKetchup. Are you thinking of doing a caboose for the end of the train?

Another insane idea: A passenger train that attracts nomads.

[RedKetchup]

yes i planned to do a last wagon of a train chain (if that is what you meant)

i planned nomads for a train station part (building like the merchant export) but i can use the idea for the last wagon of a train chain though
(or a passengers wagon , i will see ^^ )

i still need to figure out the purpose of the last wagon of the chain.

Caboose - sleeping quarters for the crew?

[OldnRetired]

Hey !  Kid ...... That's a great idea you have!  Make the caboose have the attributes of a house ..... needs food, firewood, etc. and a place for the railroad workers to live!!

[RedKetchup]

great idea then

[Denis de la Rive]

Hey, too lazy to read all the posts, (its been a while), just a question have you considered making the curves for your tracks multi-squared, like 2 by 2 or 3 by 3. What you give up in flexibility you gain in esthetics with a real curve rather than the clumsy one you have now.  It would also fit better with the physics limits of tracks which do impose certain ways of doing things and it opens the possibility of things like sidings and rail yards. Also will there be a black only option for the engine ? 

[RedKetchup]

the curves will be smoothed at the end.  the tracks are 2x2 tiles. and the railroad is placed in center. they will allow road being built under and will have to "check" and "learn" how to do the ghost thing so they can be removed.

no there will be 1-2 more train (alt F)
also, i will probably give an alt for train and wagon to be placed in 45 angle. but they wont stand on the "curved" tracks.

[RedKetchup]

after to have made the 2-3 different color of the Wagon 2 .....

i started the Train Wagon 3
This one will be used to store : Wood, Stone, Iron, Fuel


EDIT: i did the color variantions and modified the capacity from 2000 to 5000
