So far, do the trains work like vanilla minecarts in their mechanics? What kind of plans do you have for mechanics and rail logic?
You are moving right along nicely. I've seen other posts where some one wanted to do something similar to this mod, but none of them had got as far as you have so far. Nice job.

Main difference is that my wagons don't mirror if they change direction of moving like standard minecarts or carts from Traincraft or Railcraft. That always annoyed me very much. Also, my code is waaay easier and takes less place than standard one. I've fixed some critical bugs and now wagons ride the rails fine. The only thing left to do with rails is to fix that crazy bug with collision boxes and after that i can start normal work on forks, s and z rails, rolling stock, coupling and all other.
If you mean El_Zirbs and FlintTD's mod, i've tryed to write to them, but they don't reply. El_zirbs wrote in his profile that he will be off till the end of spring, so, maybe, he will come back soon...

You mean you wrote your own train logic code? Nice. That'll give you a lot of room for change.
I'm not sure as to the authors of the other mods I was thinking of. That's probably them. I'm not saying anything negative. Just complimenting you on getting so far.
Have you thought about elevation changes at all yet. That could be challenging. The grade would have to be less then the minecrat 45 degree change. More like a real train with a change up of something like one meter up for every 4 meters traveled, or something like that. Anymore and it would probably look silly. Just a thought, that's all.
Oh, and how indepth is the train system going to be? A ala-minecraft system of coal make go? Or a more complicated but realistic system of water and coal and steam? How about diesel and electric? And your rolling stock; freight cars, livestock, flat cars? Just curious about how much you have thought of so far.
All and all keep up the good work. Looking good.

If you think something's impossible.
You haven't tried hard enough.
I've thought about elevation, but i think i'll implement it not in nearest time.
Currently, steam loco runs like minecart with furnace — from clicking it with coal, but i gonna make all controls, from opening and closing the firebox to reverse and regulator with all gauges and valves.
I wanted to make a steampuck mod, so no diesel and electric, but now my mates persuade me to extend the locomotive stock later. Also, mostly all types of wagons are going to be made. If speaking about freight cars, i want to make them visualize the contents, or kinda like that.
Thanks.

I can't wait! you said you will be able to make an early release in a week. This mod is definitely the next mod im going to try out when its released. I will be checking this thread everyday to look out for the early release! Heres some diamonds for you!
This is one of the coolest mods ever, i can wait to play and make a huge railroad, i used train craft but it just didn't feel right, like a real train, even when i played with my friends, BTW do you think you'll add muitiplayer support, i know you explained it will be hard in a comment farther back, i wish i knew how to model so i can help you guys out, keep up the amazing work, once again can wait to try this out and make a railroad. - and dio
If Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter were all destroyed, 99% of teens would go insane. If you're one of the 1% that would be laughing at them, copy this into your signature and hope it happens.
i think that you should stick to pre 1900 trains, due to the fact it's more fun and more fitting in minecraft to have primitive trains, are you thinking of allowing them to attach, and for there to be a chance of them breaking down?
I know I built up a lot of expectation with my last attempt, but it didn't pan out.
So I'd like to join your team as a general worker. I can do some texturing, some modeling, some coding, and I love trains as much as you do, especially the golden years of steam (1920-1950).
My schedule's pretty clear right now, so whatever you want to start with is fine by me (great-looking rails, by the way!).
Honestly, this is quite amazing. Mojang could take a tip from this. As of now the rails vinilla minecraft adds.... would probably leave a real train in pieces. Kind of scared of what's going to happen when they try to add trains.

Best mod ever!
Can't wait till its Bigger, good Job.
I'll keep watching this Thread
[EDIT] Oh, and It would be nice if you Add some modern Trains like our German ICE or the Trans Europe Express.
Yeah, I know that by now...
Maybe.
I'm stuck to steam locomotives.
