Track Design Patterns

This mod give you possibility to create kinds of track patterns precisely with parameters, which more alike real life engineering work. It gives you hand to control separately the following parameters: Slope Horizontal curves, presented by radius Vertical curves, presented by two different slopes at two ends of the track Size of switch Relative height of the whole construction Signal spacing, or emulated moving block Walls at sides of tracks, including type, height, distance to track, and height variation to avoid Zig-Zags when you want to make a transition of walls of different height Automatically calculated terrain which is impossible to archive by normal constructions === Six patterns are found in Asset menu category "track_design_patterns" === 1. Parallel tracks 2. Underground parallel tracks 3. Compact tunnel entry 4. Switch 5. Crossover 6. Track ladders 7. Road stacking over tracks === Brief introduction to patterns === 1. Parallel tracks This pattern permits you created tracks with all parameters mentioned above. You can create groups of tracks with signals automatically installed, an emulation of moving block is supported. 2. Underground parallel tracks The underground version of parallel tracks, by removing wall related options 3. Tunnel entry This pattern permits you create a concrete looking tunnel entry, which is frequently used worldwide. No signal option exists in this pattern. Use the parallel tracks to complete the vertical curves at the beginning of the entry, otherwise you can use native construction to make it (but less easy to control). 4. Switch This pattern create simple a switch, by controlling the size represented by cotangent of the switch frog. You can use it repeatly to quickly construction a diverging section of a depot or station. This pattern also permits a flat junction quickly, by multiplying number of tracks You can choose the form of turn out of switches by changing "compactness" option between "Complete" and others
