Title: Railways switches
Post by: Fabio on January 05, 2009, 06:53:05 AM
I'm digging up this issue, a rather old one.

It would be easy and very nice to see (specially in 128), to set graphics for the switches so that once they are reserved from one train, they adjust their appearance to match with the direction the train will take.

e.g. the switch is N-S-W and the train, coming from S, goes W: it should display a S-W switch.

Any patch writer, have a go. For steel track there are some graphics in pak64 sources.

the idea is that the code should be almost ready (there used to be also an option to show the reserved track using blue dots!), but some refining is needed.
good of you to bump! ;)

Here, have a cookie^Wupdate: if you press 'b', revervations are shown, and it enables the reservation repair tool.
