[SUGGESTION] Remove the loading-time penalty for trains that are longer than the platform of a station (maybe as cheat-function) #330
Comments
Alternatively, you could make the loading time penalty proportional to the length of the train divided by the length of the platform. In other words, suppose it takes 20 ticks to load/unload a 3-tile train on a 3-tile platform: With the same 3-tile train on a 2-tile platform,
With a 10-tile train on a 2-tile platform without through loading, and a base load time of 200 ticks:

No interest in adding this feature? |
I'm considering it, this has significant gameplay implications so isn't something to add in without some thought. |
Thank you for your reply and that you are contemplating this! I would like to add to the above mentioned uses of this feature, that it can also be used when you for example want to set-up an underground Metro-network for big cities. I tried compiling a version myself, where I removed the above mentioned section in economy.cpp |
A great idea but what to do with through loading? |
If I recall correctly, the Through Loading only applies to cargo trains. |
I was wondering if this suggestion still has a chance to be added... |
I feel it's important to include this discord discussion: https://discord.com/channels/142724111502802944/919788785217179738/1077563363577561148 If this feature's full potential is to be realised, it would require a change in the behaviour of where trains stop at a too-short platform. currently they always stop at the end of the platform no matter whether it's set to near end or far end. You should be able to use these options to decide which end of the train overhangs the platform, making stuff like this possible: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/919788785217179738/1077570386713128991/load.gif |
Hello,
First of all, many thanks for all of your work on this great patchpack!!
Could it be possible to remove the loading-time penalty for trains that are longer than the platform of a station? (For example as an extra cheat option)
This is what I did to remove the penalty from a pre-compiled game:

And HackaLittleBit has also already made a patch:
