Advanced Train Simulator (ATS)

Recommended Posts

This mod's clearly going to be extremely powerful once it's had all those planned features added.

 

Personally hoping those A2 tracks are done soon.

I agree, as cool as cable cars would be, would personally love to see rails/trains completed first ;)

I had the same issue when I first tried to setup this mod.  You may need to add this to your description.ext or your cfgremoteexec (mine was cfgremoteexec inside my Epoch.Tanoa.pbo).  All credits to Duda for this info!

 

class CfgRemoteExec
{
class Functions
{
class ATRAIN_fnc_unregisterTrainAndDriver { allowedTargets=2; }; 
class ATRAIN_fnc_registerTrainAndDriver { allowedTargets=2; }; 
class ATRAIN_fnc_updateTrackMap { allowedTargets=2; }; 
class ATRAIN_fnc_hideTrainObjectGlobal { allowedTargets=2; }; 
class ATRAIN_fnc_hidePlayerObjectGlobal { allowedTargets=2; };
};
};

 

If you get the cfgremote/desc done and they still aren't moving check to see if you see a msg on screen saying "ATS loading" or something to that effect when you enter an engine car.  If you don't u will probably need to check the description.ext or cfgremoteexec.hpp and make sure the class Atrain_fnc functions are in there.  If you do get the msg and the train doesn't move get out of the train and move to a different engine car try that and if it works go back to the first engine car it should be working now.  I had this same issue on my Epoch server.

I have a few issues to report.  First when I enter a train car on my Epoch server a clone of my character stays at the point where I entered the car.  This clone can be killed and will kill the character riding the train.  Also it seems that many times when attaching 10+ cars to the train the delete function will stop working and you cannot exit the train.  Also the server FPS goes from 49 down to around 30 and doesn't seem to recover if a train with a large amount of cars is moving around the tracks.  Seems to be a pretty heavy FPS hit which makes me wonder if there are errors flying in the background I'm not aware of.  Any help would be appreciated!

 

Great mod by the way this has got me super hyped to get back into ARMA after a long break.  Hope the development continues on this the future road map looks exciting!

Well the cable cars are already done since more than 1 person is working on different parts of this mod at once.  And I won't even say I'm working "on" the mode... I did the cable car models on a whim really.  You're welcome.

 

Geez it seems like all the issues are to do with Epoch.  I'm curious... do ANY of these problems happen on Tanoa w/o Epoch?

I did some testing in the editor on Tanoa running ATS only and I didn't have any issues.

Im sure the tracks and trains will be added in good time, please remember addon making is hobby to most. Addons makers make what they want, consider it a bonus content is released. :f:

This mod is just amazing!
When it gets to the state where it has sounds and even more details fixed, ohh..


So we are running this mod on our A3 Exile Tanoa server, and it work so far (for admins :P).

We have reached out to infistar through the Exile forums, awaiting answer on a problem with players getting kicked when entering a train.
This due to infistar´s old: 

checkHiddenObjects = true;

The problem has something todo with the player beeing inside a "invisible object".

Still waiting for an answer for this, but if someone else already got it. Feel free to share it with us :)

Wonderful work on this mod.  I have to vote for A2 rails as a coming feature.  The reason why is as of now you can't use the Tanoa rails in Terrain Builder, and I'd like to build a custom map entirely based around trains now that there is some functionality there.  I would love to work with you on this or do anything I can to help!  Best of luck developing this mod further.

I believe the Tanoa assets, at least some of them, have recently been decrypted, meaning we should be able to use them.  I know at least some of them were... not sure about the tracks however.

Somebody get this man a promotion! jk

 

But seriously that would be such an awesome mod. You always see 'Combat Skiers' in movies, so why not in Arma? Most likely impossible to do, but oh well.

lol. Well yeah it would be amazing if this was on Australia. Also, there are other maps of equal size in the works that could use this creativity. Good for role play and combat scenarios.
