Backward driving automatic trains

Ideas that are too old (too many things have changed since) and ones which won't be implemented for certain reasons or if there are obviously better suggestions.

Backward driving automatic trains

Post by Factoruser »

- Trains in automatic mode should also drive backwards - if forced to - of course much slower if there is no locomotive at the other end. This might once be used for a train depot, i.e. trains could park in simple terminal stations.

Currently, you have to place train stops for both/the proper directions at a single-track-line BTW, even if you are running a bidirectional train.

No. Has already been discussed. That would lead to uncontrollable train-routing, where you cannot know in which direction a train drives to a train-stop (with the front direction or with the back direction first).
Moved to not implement.
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.
