I think each vehicle should be a bit longer, you should also apply an anti-aliasing to make it nicer
It's already a very nice train, I hope it will be included in the mail pak.

Nice! Looking forward to the production version.
And which Electric Loco is pulling the prototype (no pantograph yet?)?

Nice train, but isn't the distance between waggons too big?

Management.  I like to try to cram as many trains as possible on a double track line, and find original ways to keep things flowing.

Sorry, I could not extract the files, because the extractor asks for a p****word. Could you tell it?

IMO this will pose a lot of restrictions on underground systems. Particularly, for underground metros, we may have to build the two tracks (for two directions) far apart because we have to build under single-tile-width roads and double track is not available. Loading savegames from older versions can also be problematic.

When I build underground metros in ST, I already simulate RL by restricting the tracks more or less under roads. IMO players who want to build like RL can continue to imagine like I do, without having the actual restrictions in the game code.

I have been creating rail bridge for speed 400 km/h too - in two versions.

1st version is similar to bridge from picture

but less pillars. It should be for cities and with length limited to 16 tiles.

2nd version is similar to this

It shoud be mainly for country ways and less limited length - but with pillars, of course.

The first development screens (less track - but at home I have playable demo of the first version - with many graphical bugs):


original one of covered bridge - coverage had to be changed because in game transparency almost died


pillars have to changed (their shape of pillars is not quite good - I have to simplify it; in this version it is resized pillar of the first version)

One question - why would the livery affect the speed? I don't think that people mean it literally when they talk of "go-faster stripes"...

As said ^ you can change colours.

If you want completely different look like, say, Coca-Cola ads vs. McDonalds, sorry.
