NL Modular Station
I’m proud to release the first version of a set of station modules I’ve been working on for quite a while. I’ve had to overcome many technical hurdles to get it all to work, but I’m very happy with the result. This pack is jam-packed with features, so let me list them off:
– Adaptive Platforms; these platforms know whether there’s a track next to them or not and will update their graphical appearance to reflect this.
– Station Names and Platform Numbers; just like with the vanilla platforms, the station name and platform numbers will be displayed dynamically.
– Higher, Wider; the vanilla platforms that came with the game were rather low and far from the track; these platforms are much higher and get close to the tracks
– Station Buildings Still Work; because these platforms are higher than the vanilla ones, I had to create a system that spawns in a set of stairs to bridge the height between the buildings and the platforms.
– Dynamic Overpasses; as if adaptive platforms weren’t enough, I’ve created an overpass system that automatically creates bridges between placeable stair modules. You can build overpasses across multiple tracks, across other platforms – even across demolished platforms (I like building a road in the empty space).
– Addon modules; apart from the overpasses, there are a few other addon modules you can place – an underpass (which works with the underpasses from the vanilla platforms) and a set of ticket machines.
– This mod is relatively experimental; use at your own risk.
– Put other track mods (like CommonAPI2) before it in the load order
– 1.2 – Added roofs, stairs side entrance and support for terminus stations
– 1.3 – No longer overrides vanilla files and should be compatible with other mods
– 1.4 – Added new modules; waiting area, shelter and two-sided overpass stairs
– 1.5 – Hotfix for crashes caused by the latest update
– 1.6 – Fix for compatibility issues introduced by previous hotfix
Besides wanting to get terminus stations to work, I’ve got plenty of ideas for future additions, such as double-wide platforms, additional buildings etc. I don’t know if I’ll have the time to make all of it a reality – so no promises!
