Hi,

thanks for reply.

I use the "Advanced Trains [advtrains] [1.11]" version, but these problems are identical with the "Advanced-Trains-Optinal-Additional-"

I have prepared a video that show what happens when I restart Minetest for 3 times: but these problems are there even without restarting it... I simply download, unzip, placed in the mods folder and activate (....) I create one new v7 level but in this video you see my problems (you see also the power line above the train...).... I am going crazy for understand why....

PS: in the video I use the latest version of Minetest in develop (0.5.n) but the problems are identical in 0.4.16.

http://sendvid.com/b5oikzmj

please help me....

Probably it`s a error in the mod engine itself. The mod uses pretty old version (1.8.8) on my github repo. I will try to update soon. Advanced-Trains-Optinal-Additions works identically Advtrains mod. What did Orwell answer you?

Here i`m waiting a reply from orwell:

https://github.com/Andrey2470T/Advanced ... -/issues/1

I don`t know how to update the mod completely in my repository as i don`t know how many changes were officially implemented after my last commits there. I know only some sounds are added and that`s all. But some changes were done with API by orwell. That`s why i don`t know what files/folders pertain to the updating.

Hi,

1.
it is possible to make a wagon with an autocrafter inside? Or a furnace?
I want to build a train (the german word is "Bauzug").
I ask because I'm not a lua-coder but I have this idea and I think many other would like this.

2.
What is the function of the "loading track" ?
Please not answer with "Its loading things into trains".

best regards

The loading track is used to load things onto trains, from a chest placed below the track.

Bildschirmfoto zu 2017-12-15 07-33-35.png (473.38 KiB) Viewed 758 times
and i get messages and errors like this:

Bildschirmfoto zu 2017-12-15 07-35-18.png (600.17 KiB) Viewed 758 times
minetest is 0.4.16
I hope you can help.

I could be mistaken, but the train engine and cars seem to need a footprint of 3x3 nodes. When placing parallels I never put the rails closer than 3 nodes something like this (gravel, rail, gravel, stone, gravel, rail, gravel). Have never used platform nodes as they seem a bit obstructive. There may need to be more distance while turning corners in parallel, but I have not tested this. Perhaps give that a try and see if the errors go away.

Something like: platform, stone, rail, stone, stone, stone, rail, stone, platform

In keeping with your decor. Looks good btw. :)

And for the real reason I logged in. Finished a 4.5k node loop and putting on the finishing touches. To simplify some of the tracks, I've used detector rails to automate passage from one rail onto the next. The idea is to manually change track to travel off the main loop and to lay the track out in a manner to automatically return to the loop to continue the route. (Unless the tracks are manually chosen to travel a different pattern.) All works as it should unless travelling in reverse through an automated switch. Here's a screenshot of the uh-oh moment:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aNXNpC ... sp=sharing

So either I have to change direction or get off and manually operate the switch to continue. Here's a screenshot of getting off after the uh-oh to inspect and decide next step showing the detector, switch and override placement:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SHhjGE ... sp=sharing

So, I went back to hq to hash things out and come up with a way in game to circumvent such things. This is a screenshot of a delay array which gives me just a little more time to finish transitionaing from one rail to the next before the switch disengages:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Di8G1V ... sp=sharing

That's two delays and a diode added to the detector switch.

That was the scenerio, now for the question. Here is what looks to be the section of lua code which returns the rail from on to off state as the train leaves the detector node:

---cut---
advtrains = {
on_train_leave=function(pos, train_id)
advtrains.ndb.swap_node(pos, {name="advtrains:dtrack_detector_off".."_"..suffix..rotation, param2=advtrains.ndb.get_node(pos).param2})
mesecon.receptor_off(pos, advtrains.meseconrules)
end
}
---cut---

Would it be possible to add a small delay in transition before the detector node switches off? A second should be more than enough as long as the train isn't creeping and would simplify the layout. Wouldn't it be funny if I was the only person in the world who ever ran into this. Lol!!! What a goof. 8O Have fun!!

Yeah, early on I think they had the standards set rather easy. But as they try to make things more realistic-ish they seem to keep tightening those thumb screws. A real kick in the pants for me came when the box car inventory was cut in half. Had to re-arrange the tracks to accomodate for a train twice the length. Is all good though. As many things as they change, the general thrust of this mod does seem to get better over time. There's no knowing, a year from now we'll probably have to change all the tracks again for some other major upgrade. Lol!! Ooohhh... Like double box cars that are 8 nodes long... And then they can have 48 stacks per box car again!! 8O I like it! 8D

Doog fades into the distance bouncing off doors and walls dreaming in his stupid little head.

Peace :)

Lately in the comments was announced a lot of screenshots with new models and new textures. When will they be added in the main branch of the mod or in distribution from mbb's?

It's definitely not the footprint.
I have added a commit that implements an additional check, so that the error should no longer appear. However, i need to investigate where this error comes from.

Ah.
GABRIEL?!
When you split the rails from the core mod, you didnt move the train_load function along...
loading.lua needs to go into advtrains_train_track and get included properly.
I don't have access to my computer right now, i'll fix it tomorrow in the evening...

1.12
Rewrote large parts of the rail connection system (see commit message for more details)
- Might cause problems that i'm unaware of yet
- /at_sync_ndb and off-track trains no longer spam the chat
- trackplacer finally works with switches
- side effect: trains can now also pass a switch from the 'wrong' branch, however, when reversing, they go back where they came from, i'm still thinking how to solve this best. Workaround is to right-click the switch twice
- fix loading rails (with gabriel (sorry, i forgot to add you in the commit message))
- new (yet undocumented) feature: right-clicking rail with track worker while holding aux1 will rotate rail by 180°
Lua is great!
