Train not working

[slimspaydee]

Ive made a train work before, but this one isnt showing up for some reason. I have got the track layed out and all the waypoints labeled and right. I have checked it over and over and still nothing. Can anyone help me, i would appreciate it.

EDIT: Now i got it working but it wont stop where i want it to. I labeled the waypoint where i want it to stop as station, thats right is it not?

EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out finally, im an idiot.

I'm trying to implement a train into my map, and I've followed every step in atleast three different train tutorials. However, I can not get my trains to show up on the map. They are inside the boundary but they do not exist. I'm sure it's something simple, but what am I doing wrong?

StatiK, here's a simple guide on how to make train work.

First create a train tracks and put the waypoint path so it follows the train tracks.
Waypoint path doesn't need to be placed exactly on the tracks, but it looks bad if train doesn't follow them.

Now when you've done that, put object "TrainEngine" somewhere near the path and that's it. Train doesn't require any scripts to work, just put it there and it's gonna follow the tracks itself.
Also be sure that waypoint path goes in circle and never ends, otherwise train will just dissapear when it reaches the end of the path.

Note: Trains and waypoint paths don't need to be named, unless you want your train to stop at a station, but I'm sure that you already know this.


Practice a bit, and if you have any other problems or questions, feel free to ask here. ;)

Yeah I had problems like that too, but after re reading RVMECH's excelent tutorial it all seems to run smoothly, For stoping trains try naiming one waypoint STATION, and another DISEMBARK, For example; 'Waypoint132STATION' and further down the line 'Waypoint156DISEMBARK'
If in doubt try triple checking what lies near the train tracks and waypoints.
Hope it helps.
