Trains in 19?

Post by manosaurus »

Once a long time ago I watched a video of a mod for FS17 that made the trains into a switchable item. Meaning you could switch cars around and change tracks just like a real train. Now for the life of me i cannot find any info on this mod. However I do hope that if the trains remain in FS19 that they become more like that mod.

Honestly I forgot all about trains since the couple maps that ended up being my favorites don't have them. However, in the beginning when all we had was GCV, I did enjoy messing with them. I would not be against improvement down this path, but IRL does a farmer ever deal with trains other than making sure his grain gets to the co op before the train leaves?

The only thing i hate about trains is when your in a deep sleep, they blow that damn horn and wake you up. Im quite literally a stone throw away from them. Two houses down and theres the train tracks.

I play broad acres. It’s a 16x map. I use the trains (modded to my preferred capacities of course) to haul all my crops around

What hardware are you running that on? Just got a new PC after playing on XB1 for most of 17. It might be nice to try a larger map. I was thinking 4x, but I'm curious if my hardware would handle a 16x.

Not 100% sure lol. I had it built specifically for simulation gaming. I do know it has the GTX1080. But I’m a pc noob. So asking for the specs is unrealistic. I do know it’s beefy enough to run BA on max settings with about 50 mods and a constant 60fps

Very nice. I'll just have to give it a go and see how it turns out.

You could download something like speccy and that will list all the major components in your pc.

I honestly thought that trains were over hyped for fs 17 simply because they had so little import in the game I hope the keep them but try to improve them moving forward cause at the moment on console they’re very limited

I wish the trains could deliver to more than one salepoint. I hardly ever used them.

Yeah what I personally think (opinion mind you nothing more) would help trains is make if to where they can go to two or three sell point where at least one can be dumped at by either the train or tipper and then one just for trains that I think would help trains at least a little bit and not make it to where you have to use the train for just one sell point

I honestly don't use trains.the tracks are good cause tracks are on roads.but...I like trucking the product by truck.if the trains would once a hour or couple hours would just run on there own without me running it..that would be great...for me.I have my hands full just dealing with farming..take care all.

I do not mind having trains in the game ... but on most maps they are just pointless really!

If you add trains to a map ... Please put some effort in making them useful and with a purpose ... :this:

For me it would be nice if you could load them and send them off, but also it would be nice if there is more then one train to be able to switch lines and add or subtract cars. That way you could haul more too in one shot for the best price
