Railroads Mod for Farming Simulator 25

Train Carts for ZCA Railroad mod

This is my attempt to make railroad mod. My inspiration was JWeezy, and wanted to make support mod for FDR Logging in FS25.

All carts were tested with 45km/h on curves

To place locomotive and train carts on track you need strength mod or use console command.

Important things:
- !!!don`t forget to unfold train and train cart after you place them on tracks!!!

- If you connect locomotive and few carts together and want to go around and connect locomotive from the other side - it won`t work due to how this game works. You need to disconnect every cart first, so they are separate, then you can connect loco from the other side

This is work in progress and beta release, feel free to post comments and bugs. Please consider making a donation, it took many hours to model and script the mod.

Look for my other railroad mod as they work together

Hello again, I've noticed that the wagons do connect to a machine, and when I turn that same machine around to connect them in the other direction, it won't let me. What am I doing wrong? And on the other hand, the tanker wagon doesn't load/unload anywhere. I can't load diesel at the refinery or unload water at the car washes. Is there an easy solution?

the connection from another side is how this game works. If you want to connect engine to the carts from other site you have to disconnect every cart then go around and connect it again. Every time you connect cart, the game determines where is front and where is back (rear end) and there is no feature in this game to pull something from it`s "rear end".

To load diesel/water/herb you need to press U to select which tank you want to use. Below you can see the trigger boxes. The place where you want to load/unload have to be in corresponding trigger (it`s invisible in the game). Left - water, center - herb, right - diesel.

Sorry, it's a problem with my layout. It's set up on the Zielonka map and has many uneven and winding paths. I've tried on a flat map and with an oval, and everything works fine. Only when the cars are loaded and if you have several cars, do you have to take the curves very slowly. Thanks for your interest, best regards.  P.S. It's a shame AutoDrive isn't working.

curves on slopes are made with workaround and game physic hack. They are super unstable and i cannot change that due to how the game engine works.

Hello, first of all thanks for the mods, they are incredible to me. I have some problems and I will explain them to you in case they have a solution. With the updated mods, the wagons and locomotives keep derailing. The autodrive doesn't work entirely well since it goes in fits and starts, only with the trains. Now, on request, the tanker wagon should be able to load more things like slurry, for example. And on request, some railway decoration, station platforms or something like that.

can you elaborate on derailing, did you unfold them? can you post some video clips. I haven`t changed anything with collision and physics so they should behave as they were from beginning.

autodrive will not work with this mod and may cause the mod to stop working at all, so maybe this is the issue with derailing

awesome mods, it would be cool if they all had a way to pick them up by crane
