Trains

[Duck_Hunter]

Is there a way to view from car to car when loading? I mean, when I load say a long train of 20 cars, I am in the engine, and I have to look from there to line up the fill point with the cars. It would be much easier if I could be at the elevator fill point and see what I am actually doing. I know I can change the car by the "G" key to open each car, but how can my view jump to each car? I am on PC. Any ideas on how to do this?

It's not possible base game anyway. I've never heard of a mod that does this.

there may be way of adding in a camera to default wagons then cycle through views

Its not the answer you are after, but I always park a vehicle by the fill point. Either temporarily, or more often, I have a mod of an old cheap bicycle which I just lean up against the pipe and leave there permanently. I switch to that, see that the wagon is lined up, then switch to train to fill and repeat when needed.

I used to just move forward slowly until the fill trigger prompt appeared

That's a awesome idea, I will do that

Maybe Helazak will see this, and add the following to his wish list.

- In base game enable a -Tab To- the current trigger while the trigger is occupied. This would allow the player to tab between the vehicle on the trigger and the trigger itself, which would be especially helpful for trains.

Or maybe we could ask VertexFloat if he can add wagons in his Camera system mod...
