Kinda but it can mess with your logistics… might be OP but thats up to you 😝

Are these too OP? I mean, one type of car for everything with make everything else worthless. Similar to how you can use universal cargo trucks for everything so you don't bother with other types.

Because of my mod?

Glad you enjoy it :)

By far the single biggest improvement to this game, completely changed how I organise train routes thanks to this. THANK YOU

@jf_v you are very welcome

Great mod. I searched very long for that.
Thanks foryour work!

This is amazing since there is no way to swap the car on a line automatically. Would you be able to update this with this new cargo mod? some of the cargo are not included such as fiber, papers, etc. Would you be able to just make it into a "All cargo"?

Thank you for making such awesome mod.

Very, very useful

@Pizzaguy
I've thought many times about expanding on it. Coloured/textured box cars. Completely new model to remove the stakes - flatcar instead...

id be interested if the idea can be expanded upon. What if there were different textures for different rail cars, like a boxcar? maybe perhaps an american variant. or the cars themselves can be more heavier than vanilla version for balancing reasons

Ok

Also, @Waffle, I don't think so.
(Sorry for slow reply)

Oh wow great! Thanks for testing 😊

Tried this with Yeol's. Works perfectly out of the box.

Look up 'bromberg vans' and the first image is what I mean.

I'm not sure what they are, could you point me to an image?

No, a universal van.
Like the German Bromberg vans.

as in a universal stake car truck?

I mean a goods van that has the same characteristics as this mod.

Hi Tankymcplaneface
I think there already is one - the flatbed truck?

Will there be a van version of this?

Tnx ShraGan

This may help :)

I'm a noob with TF2 (and mods), how do activate a mod in TF@. Thanks for any help.

I'm not sure. Haven't tested it. If senseless doesn't add any new cargo types then it should be.

Is this compatible with Yeol's Senseless?

Hi @srae
Glad you're enjoying my mod and you're welcome for the port. :)
I checked the original 1890 stake car wagon and it's release date is also 1900.
Perhaps it is simply a naming thing or a mistake from the original game?
/shrugs/
If someone can point me to some official doco from TF2 devs, I'll be more than happy to change it to release in 1890.

First, I love this mod. It was one of the reasons I continued to play TPF1 rather then switch to TPF2. It just makes the game more enjoyable. I have moved on to TPF2 (thanks very much for the port), but found that the 1890 model does not show up until 1900. It seemed odd so I took a look at the LUA where I found a variable "metadata.availability.yearFrom = 1900" in the file :

variable in: ...\2113300296\res\models\model\vehicle\waggon\NafeysStakeCar_1890.mdl

I changed that to 1890, returned to my game and all was right with the world.
(I should add that I checked all the other 'yearFrom' dates which seemed correct.)

@South Buffalo Buzz
Glad you appreciate it. Thank you! 😁
There should be 1850, 1890, 1950 and post 2000 versions...

Really appreciate this mod - so useful, especially late game. But, I wish there was more than just the 1850 and 1950 versions. They're a little slow and don't carry enough. Perhaps you could make a few more variants to come into the game at different periods, maybe every 20 years or so, with additional capacity and higher speeds? And perhaps late game versions with 4-bays and really large capacity? I've seen cars with 150x4 capacity and top speed near 200 MPH in the post-2000 era, but they're dedicated freight. A Nafey stake with that kind of hauling capacity would be outstanding.
I find the stakes less useful, for example, in the period between 1900 and 1950. The 1850 model isn't as useful when all the other trains are running at 60 MPH or more and carrying five or six times the weight, and until the 1950 model shows up, as the economics push toward more speed and capacity.

@Moscow Melbourne
You're welcome, glad you're enjoying it! 😁

Thank you so much for this mod, it completely turned the game around for me, beautiful!

Hope you enjoy my mod

@ ShraGan. Hello, How and where can you place those downloads. You already mentioned "Place this AFTER the industry mods in the load order." But where can I find that load order, I can't even find the folder of "Transport Fever 2" ..... I have the mod expanded industry but what is "Mail and Waste Add-on? .... Is that a mod too?....Thanks for help !

Anytime! I love your waggons

Sounds like it's all working as planned. Thanks for testing.

mail works, confirmed.

Great to hear it!! 😁

Okay, after starting a new campaign with "Expanded Cargo Demands (Dynamic)" loaded BEFORE "Industry Expanded", I actually got IE to produce waste. The stake cars moves waste!

thanks :)

I tested normal goods, and it works. I'm yet to test IE-goods, but it should work.

You bet correct! After.

wich order should the mods be loaded in? before or after the Industry expanded one? (I bet after)

Just updated to be compatible with industry expanded mod. I've tested what I can but please let me know if anything is wrong.

in the U.S.A. & CANADA their are called Trucks because i have family that works on the VIA & CP RAIL.

@Davidmoor668 that is a matter of culture as here those on trains are called train trucks or bogeys, and those on the road are called trucks.

@Shragan Would it possible to have another unlock in like 2050 or so that increases the top speed? I'd like my rail network to increase above 160 km/h at some point.

Most if not all of the locomotives can handle over 160, but non of the cargo wagons seem to be able to.

Which Trucks are u speeking about because The Wheels on Trains are called trucks and trucks are called rigs/semi I hope this help u VoshkaVonBadMeow. :-)
