Just wanted to point out that if you are playing single player, the train will stop out of render distance. IF you are playing on a dedicated server it will continue to run even out of your render distance. Almost forgot, great video sir. Very informative I bandged my head against the wall for a couple hours before I looked up this guide 10/10!

Great vid! btw, You can add 5 cars, detach them from the engine, move the engine forward, add 5 cars, back them up in to the previous 5, attach them to the other cars :) You might.. have to attach everything one by one after the ones attached to the engine, i forget, but you can definitely have long trains, i haven't gotten one long enough to get out of render but that might just be the limit.

That would make sense as I was trying to make a loop on the Island but the train was going to face the other direction as I wanted to make a train yard. I think Snail should fix this as in real life trains can go either way on the track. It would also be interesting to see what happens when two trains colloid.

As a train enthusiast and long time ASE player, I would most certainly get this add-on if I had ASA on my Xbox One. However getting the game means I’ll have to get a new Xbox for it as my current one just the standard version, not the X or S Serious. The first thing I’d do after constructing my rail network would be to build a Tender (the train car the contains a steam train’s fuel and water) behind the locomotive for realism, and then go from there. By the way, this locomotive is a 2-6-0 “Mogul” under the Wyte Notation (the most commonly used system for identifying different types of steam engines. It works by tracking the number of wheels the engine has, which are arranged in 3 or so groups. Pilot wheels (unpowered) at the front of the engine, Driving wheels (powered) in the middle, and Trailing wheels (unpowered, unless it’s a booster unit) in the rear. Engines will sometimes of more than one pair of drivers in the middle. Certain types of engines are exempt from this system (Geared steam engines for example). If an engine doesn’t have pilot and/or trailing wheels, it will be shown as a 0. Wheel arrangement examples: 0-4-0 “Porter” 4-4-0 “American” (the true cowboy train) 2-6-2 “Prairie” 2-8-0 “Consolidation” 2-8-4 “Berkshire” 4-6-2 “Pacific” 4-8-4 “Northern” 4-6-6-4 “Challenger” 2-8-8-4 “Yellowstone” 4-8-8-4 “Big Boy” Sorry for the history lesson, I didn’t mean for this comment to be this long.
@DixieRailProductions401828 күн бұрын
Also steam engines that don’t have a tender are referred to as tank engines and are equipped with a fuel bunker (compartment) and water tanks (example: 0-6-0T. T stands for Tank) Geared steam engines are exempt from this as well as Fireless steam engines, where the T is replaced with an F. Just felt like I had to get that out. Sorry :)

But I must admit I was very, very intrigued by the train, and your video did an excellent job informing me on how it works. (And it definitely has tempted me into reconsidering playing ASA!) I was also really curious to know how creatures interact with it (do they aggro to it, or mostly ignore it?), so thank you for including that hilarious clip of the Deathworm.

Just a couple of tips I didn't see mentioned, For one, do not stop trains on top of track splits. It tends to either break connections or render cars and the engine inside of each other. This can also happen if leaving the train and cars against a track stop. For two, mounted water tanks can only be filled by hand or by rain, intakes, even ones in range, will not fill them up. This makes any onboard farms require a lot of water storage to keep going, depending on how many plots you have. I have not tested this yet, but I would guess the same is true for electricity. For three, because i wondered the same thing, no, the train is not capable of ramming, in fact the engine itself is unable to be built upon and only mostly a physical object, the entire undercarriage of the platform cars are not physical objects at all and you and dinos can walk right under them unhindered. For four, tracks must always be contiguous, meaning they must be constructed as an overall circuit. He did mention this point briefly, but I felt I should emphasize that this means you cannot have smaller circuits, I.E, a turn around loop on a line, the train system was definitely designed to make giant, continuous circuits moving in a singular direction. That said, you can construct storage/bypass lines along the circuit for multiple engines and other cars. Thoigh notably there are no crossing track aegments, only joints, so in theory you could cross tracks with two joints mirroring each other. If it helps, imagine the track segments as having polarity, like a battery. For five, simple beds (and the coffin from the dlc) will likely gliych you into being stuck in the car floor, however the bunk bed works fine, haven't tested the cryobed but I imagine it would also glitch. For six, while the platform cars count as foundations, 2x4, you can only build out one foundation from the side of the car. The limit will not allow you to add more than just a ceiling, sometimes allowing you to make the ceiling a trapdoor and add a rope ladder. In my case, I used this minimal extention as landing pads and platforms to enter and depart over at train stations.
