Whole consist loading

[butch_koch]

I see those who post youtube loading a whole consist of hoppers and/or well cars at once. How is this done? I have no problem loading car by car.

How is this done?

See the Trainz Wiki page at Loading Consists (Incl Locomotives). Follow the steps. Steps 4 & 5 explain bulk loads.

Download the rule Instant Load.

Instant Load

That is a actually a Driver Command and will not set the load before the session starts, plus it will load all empty wagons with whatever is the first item in their product queues.

I believe the OP is asking about the consist setup procedure using Surveyor where individual wagons, or groups of identical wagons, can be pre-configured to particular loads.

The OP has not stated either way. butch_koch was saying the other users can load all wagons at once.

you can do that with instant load, and if you want to it can happen when the Session has loaded as long as the first command is instant load.

It's true. My expanded command <kuid2:45324:555017:10> Instant Load Command can do even more and i use it to start sessions all the time. It can do one of 3 things when executed by the schedule.
1. load the entire train with a random load from the freight queues
2. randomly load cars in the train with a random load
3. can figure out double/single stack intermodal loads when used with a great many intermodal cars.

Generally this chooses a random product and loads it, if the next car is the same type and queue configuration then it it likely to receive the same load as the last car in order to sortof mimic blocking of cars in the train with similar loads.

I am playing around with your Multi Industry mark II at the moment.

Yup. I use it all the time and it's awesome.

Hello Justin
Where do I find the x:10 version of your loading command. In my content manager I have the x:8 version as "packaged" as the latest version. My Trainz+ is build 129343.
Thank you very much for your answer in advance.

Regards
Swordfish
