visbile loads on a platform or dock

[johnwhelan]

It's possible an example is passengers on invisible stations but is there anything set up with attachment points that you can generate other product / commodities on, using industry perhaps?

Thanks John

I think I've solved the problem by switching the product kuid.

Problem with that is that before you had 150 people waiting for the train. Now you'll have 150 boxes on the platform, and not properly staked. But yes, it would work.

Not rocket science to knock something up with the attachment points in the correct place, look at andi06's invisible stations, the attachments are actually a separate im with just the attachments, very easy to make your own attachments, I did for some NG Invisible platforms a while back with Andi's permission, although it wasn't apparently needed! Narrow and low platforms, never got to use them though as my route had several platforms on gradients so you either had passengers sunk into the platform at the uphill end or all leaning if adjusted to the slope!

I use a number of assets that have a concrete pad with various items that can be loaded.
They are from 2006 days but work ok in Tane.
I have added many more assets by changing the configs. You will find them here.

Any sample script code lying around?

I have Andi's working nicely with a shortened platform but he appears to have hard coded the generated kuid in his encrypted scripts which means I'm stuck once more.

If anyone has access to his encrypted scripts that might be useful.

Thanks John

Thanks Mike these look interesting, especially the bus pad. The perfect place to load and unload davesnow's new schoolbus I think.

@ John looks to me like these use unencrypted scripts

Adding these to your config.txt
rotate-yz-range -3,3
rollstep 0.1
height-range -5,5

to your asset would allow for some height adjustment as well as tilting a bit assuming the axis lines up correctly.

@ Mike these really are nice, I especially like the log transfer asset.



:hehe:

Hi Norm,
You have given me some ideas too.
I had not seen the log transfer, so will check it out.
I use the container units as a unload area at my Container stations, as they are set to consume.
I have cloned them and can load any containers onto them.
Cheers,
Mike

I think I have a working solution so its in for testing at the moment. It's not perfect but its not bad.

Thanks John
