wraith70 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I've set up a simple mission on the Normandy map. Setup a locomotive with some box cars in Cherbourg with waypoints heading south. When I start the mission I see no trains. I say a youtube video showing how it's done, but it's a few years old. Has anyone successfully got trains working lately?? -Wraith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wraith70 Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 Turns out they work on some tracks in Normady. In east normany, the waypoints don't follow the track...they are straight lines. In Cherbourgh, I used the left tracks and it started working. -Wraith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honez Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I think it's broken, especially for MP. I have tried creating several train intercept missions and finally gave up because only the host could see them. Are you trying to do it in MP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for the heads up for MP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't yet tried to edit Missions with trains, but when the P-47D gets its rockets I will surely try to use trains as targets :thumbup: For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 It is a known bug with any "single rail" set of tracks. The valid path is in only one direction. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

xjk Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Has anyone tried trains on the Persian Maps. I would like to use a train as a moving target, but I cannot get it to work. All looks good in the mission editor, but when I 'fly' the mission, it's as if the train doesn't ever activate. It's simply not there. Any other experience with trains or locomotives?

fargo007 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 They also don't respond to triggers, and will not draw fire from the opposing coalition at this point. Have fun. Don't suck.
