How to save an intermodel consist ?

Hello all,

I'm using Trainz+ Build 126280.

I'm trying to build an intermodel consist with very specific containers. I have the well-cars and I manully load the specifc containers that I want. When the consist and load is to my liking, I save it and give it a name (in this case "CN Intermodal"). My problem is that when I load the consist, all I get is the locomotives and the empty well cars. Is there a way to save the consist with the specific containers ??? I would like to use it in a Portal, but if I can't save it....

Thanks for your assistance,

Cloning rolling stock for specific loads, then using a combination of industries, stations, and the instant load/unload commands works for using portals.

Well, that's a start I guess. With the instant load command I'm getting containers on the well cars, but not the ones that I had specifically picked out for the consist. Thanks for replying.
 
When you save the consist you are only saving the kuid's of the train vehicles and the order they are in.

Yes, thank you. I've figured that out. I'm trying to figure if there's a way of generating a train with specific containers on them (e.g. nothing but Happag Lloyd).
 
You can edit the config file of the well car and delete all the products it can load and add the one you want, then you can use instant load when you come out of the portal.

Or you can add the product you want loaded as the first product listed then use instant load. Instant loaded always loads the first product listed.
 
What Lewiscc65 said above:- "You can edit the config file of the well car and delete all the products it can load and add the one you want."

Also change the Initial Count from 0 to 1, then every wagon you place will be loaded with your product selection.

Well, I guess I'm not up to speeed on the intricacies of cloning assets. I changed the name of the cloned assesset and replaced container kuids with the ones that I want to use. Each time, after initally accpeting the mod, it came back faulty after trying to use it in game.

Hi there,

I tried that and for whatever reason, the asset came back as faulty. That being said, I certainly need to learn more about coding... Thanks for the suggestion nonetheless.

You do not need to clone the asset. Just open and edit the configure file. I do this all the time. When you clone assets the game will check the whole model for errors. Most times when you just edit the config file the game will only look for errors in that file.

Ok, I will try that... :)
