Long description

Long description
This mod is currently a proof of concept for a rail layer, which supports multitrack curves.

To test it, just add the mod and start a new game. I modified the recipes for the locomotive and the straight rail to cost only one wood, so you can just chop a few trees, build some rails, place the locomotive, enter it and drive around the map like crazy.

The rail layer removes trees, rocks and for simplicity spawners. No additional rails are needed, nor are signals. This will be implemented later, if this mod is of interest.

@Airat9000: you probably have a Factorio version before 0.12.12

that being said, from the description I figure that you managed to deal with the problem of curves during parallel track placement. If so, I would recommend that you try integrating your solution with Choumiko's already existing rail layer. Thereby, you save yourself a lot of work to re-implement stuff that Choumiko already did. Also, it will improve FARL (I am positive that Choumiko is more than willing to integrate this).
Bonus points because players will be given one powerful mod.

Anyway: great work
