Train with cargo do not graphically (they are connected physically) connect when going up and on upper corners. Down, left everything works. Same with tanker/fluid wagon.
Can somebody help please? I spend a lot of time searching for some cool locomotive skins after i make trains able to kills behemoths.

I cant figure it out why this is happening.

its for 0.15 version

If i had to guess it has to do with the shortening-lengthening they had to do to trains a while back. The problem was that inserters didn't line up well or lined up differently on N-S vs E-W track so they made the cars do a little magic act shrinking and expanding them depending on direction.

Failing that, the skin is the problem and is missaligned to the train itself.

Solved !
It was
vertical_selection_shift = 0.5 instead of vertical_selection_shift = -0.5
