Train Coupler

Description
[PRE-RELEASE]

Make use of Smart Physics by linking your creations without combining them into one creation.

Put a train coupler on both creations you want to connect and bring the couplers close to each other. Press E on either of them to connect them. You can also connect them using logic.

Its very weak and glitchy some times

I agree I really like this Mod I was suggesting that pushing cars might make it so you can go faster and have less issues maybe.

While yes, there are definitely stability issues as others have pointed out, we've just given this a test and are quite happy with it, it's the best coupling we've seen yet.

Welding is a laggy mess, collision coupling tends to not work, electromagnets can't take corners, or, if given the ability to, they freak out, but this? This works enough to pull a few wagons. Not exactly at high speed or very many, but it is so good that it works.

well you could have a engine/locomotive on each side to push in what ever direction you need to help fix the issue of glitching only problem is how to get both to work while being separate vehicles or you could just use the engine/ locomotive to push rather than pull.

I'm sure it's a feat to get this to work but anytime a train gets over a certain speed the entire consist glitches and essentially explodes off the track & a similar thing when trying to coupe middle cars of a long train.

I cant move heavy trains, it glitches out, can you add a way to fix it? and a way to automatically connect them? overall a great mode non the less

Hello! Author, your idea is wonderful, I really liked it, but there is a problem - the clutch does not hold the clutch well, I checked the train and the carriage, the train could not pull out the carriage using the clutch, the clutch was broken, try changing the mod and making the grip stronger

Looks good, basic mechanics good, needs more stiff connections (make it so the couplers don't stretch and magically stay connected when not visually connected)

Perfect mod!

It has some problems when pushing cars instead of pulling but overall its very good mod
