Hi all. Is there a script,command, whatever, that effects which end of a train couples to a consist. If i want an AI train to couple Cab forward (e.g. North facing), or Engine end (South facing), is there anyway to do this.
I know for multiple engines I can simply setup one engine to be reversed, but for an individual train it may be desirable to always couple either Cab end or Engine end depending on the train type and whether shunting or long haul. Sorry if it doesn't make much sense, but i have a scenario wherby an single engine sits at a whye with Cab forward facing South, and want to couple with a consist but the eventual destination is North. Despite the Whye, the AI ends up coupling to the consist Cab Forward facing South, so the train ends up pulling the consist backwards for the duration of the long haul. I would like therefore to issue a command that tells the AI which end it should couple to the consist, therefore forcing the AI to take the correct path through the Whye that will enable it to connect Engine end with the Cab forward facing North.
Regards
