Author Topic: can someone make a train  (Read 1985 times)

i have seen some people who have made relistic looking trains but they dont work.i think it would be cool if they where i vehicle that was on track,but the track themselves could go up or down.and instead of sitting you are standing and you can walkin in the train so basicaly its a rollercoaster and you can go from one train car to the next.and in the front train itself you can ajust the speed like vary slow,slow,medium,fast,vary fast(on turns can wreck and blow up or somethen) oh and stop. it would make citys better,and not only trains but subways and monorails so you could have a easy set of trainsportation. i know it would be hard to probly script for but at least make a working train where you can stop it with with a button not with the keyboard if you get what i am saying.

This is probably one of the most requested thing of all time.

probably is it would be cool tho

hmm probly trader could do soemthin like that,cuz he likes to take time in his work and what not why don't you personily ask him?

well the rail thing can work if you make the turns so that they are not like curved.

and the whole switching cars can work but walking around in the car itself conflicts with the engine.

you think i am the only person to post this,besides last time i pm someone they tried to get me banned

you could make the train  AM TRACK and it would hold 15-1 people.that would be a dream. :cookie:

i thought of another idea,for the train how would you get it on the tracks if it was on a vehecile spawn well,build a track for spawning trains. i also thought there should be alimit to like 20trains otherwise you need 1 more engine,the tracks themselves should be like ranging from the sizes of baseplates, and there should be like specials just for trains like cover bridge things,caves,ect. i'm tring to learn how to script not workin so good.

Making trains that run on tracks is likely not possible without a really hacky (and possibly laggy) add-on.

Ya I try but I can't find the addon.

i think he ment its probably the most requested add on

no, lol

Ive said this about 5 times now- Make the train a bot

Notice how I said "really hacky"

Tracks are gonna' take up too much brick-countage, unless someone comes up with something better.

Actually, most modern tracks are curved and angled, so trains can go faster over turns(actually, station was built on a turn which is kind of fail).



You see the track is curved and angled. That's actually not too modern, been around for awhile. Well.. back to the point, one screen(visibility distance in BL) of tracks will take thousands of bricks. So a better solution for less bricks first.



Trains are not that wide, that one is like 10.0ft(real information, don't remember length).
