Factorio Forums

Hi, why no one is making a train mod? Maybe even an signal helper mod?

Because vanilla has a signal and train station helper?

?

He probably meant that the ingame hints provided by vanilla factorio are sufficient.

In my eyes, you weren't specific enough about that "train mod". Like, what should it help with (i.e. what information should be shown) and in which way should it change the game mechanics.

1. would be to change it from train specific options to train line specific options, so you can add trains to train lines more easy and dont need to edit every train on its own.

2. some sort of help where to put signs and how to use it

3. more ways to controll trains... e.g. you cant read whats in the train....

Browse the mods.
Smart Trains offers train lines and reads content of whole trains over the station
Inventory Sensor reads single wagons

I browsed the mods, besides the invetory sensor nothing i need.
