electric train
Posted: Tue Nov 26, 2013 7:26 pm
				
				this is the code i created (edited really) for an electric locomotive.
the game launches just fine, i can even place done the train.
BUT, it wont work(it wont get electricity, although it clearly is in the radius of an pole), and when i press the button to open the inventory, the game crashed.
is this possible?
yes, its still the diesel, just used it to see if it would work. that way i dont have to create an item and recipe for it.
