1) Separating the motor cars and the trailer cars.
The motor cars should be separated from the trailer car and placed in different folders. This will reduce file space used as a single folder may be used in more than 1 train 'presets'
For example, Trainsimcentral's British Rail Class 37 passenger (BR_Class37-416_passenger)'s locomotive should be saved in the \Train\BR_Class37-416 folder, while the carraiges, possibly \Train\BR_Mk2 . In the route file, it should be written as
- Code: Select all
With Train
.Include (BR_Class37-416, BR_Mk2, BR_Mk2, BR_Mk2, BR_Mk2, BR_Mk2)
2) External view liveries
Trains are usually used by more than 1 operating companies. This give rise to multiple train liveries. These liveries should be saved in different extensions.cfg files, and not in different train folders.
As an example, the British Rail Class 220 'Voyager' from Trainsimcentral. This train actually have 2 extension files in the train folder -- called extensions.cfg, and extensions for Cross Country.cfg, containg two liveries. We should be able to choose between these two, without modifying/renaming any files, from the main menu, perhaps via a drop down box and the route file, like
- Code: Select all
With Train
.Folder (Voyager[VirginTrains])
