Streets mod which uses train-logic

Post by Hellfiredragon »

Hi,

I want to create a Mod with Streets where Cars can drive like Trains on Rails or Cargo Ships on water-ways. The main point of this streets should be the radius of curves. It should be much smaller and the cargo of the Cars should be smaller than the cargo of wagons. To achieve this, I need to change the radius of the curved-rail.

It seems, this is currently not possible during hard-coded values for rails.

So, I request the developers, can you implement an 90° curve which has a smaller radius? It could be deactivated by default but enabled for other mods like cargo-ships or streets. A current full 90° curve has 12x12 tiles of size. How about a curve which has the size of 4x4 or 6x6?
Or can you add some modded value to create curves in the 2x2 grid?

I know for mods which create autonomous driving cars, but they are all UPS intensive. But with new curves I could use the much faster hard-coded train-logic for path-finding etc.

If someone has another idea to solve this problem, I will be happy to know it.
