Mod-in train crossing whistle/horns?

[Nick B.[US]]

My question just is would trains whistling/blowing horns at crossings be possible now? We now have realistic blowing when leaving stations again via a mod, but that's gotta be much easier then how it would interact with a railroad crossing. I have an OK understanding of coding but never have made anything from scratch myself so I know how hard some of this stuff can be.

I would love to see this as well, it would be great if it would activate with sign placement, similar to the placement of signals

They do that in Chris Sawyer's Locomotion, it would be awesome if we could find out how they did it back then and adapt it into TpF2

I have been saying this for ever, Urban Games don't care. I emailed them, posted all over the place still no horns... :( I suggested a check box in game setup area, horns yes/no so those that hate horns are covered and those that like horns likewise. a horn sign placed on track could blow the train horn as it passes over it like a signal post. If it was raining ♥♥♥♥♥, i would get hit on the head by a butt hole.......

Not every suggestion from every single person can be attended to, unfortunately.

This game is European-centric where horns do not need to be blown in rail crossings unless there are no warning devices; indeed trains do not need to do such in most of the world.

I think ya'll are missing the title. I'm asking if this would be possible as a MOD, not a built in feature. I got no idea what is actually possible with modding in this sim. Custom scripting ain't even possible in half the games we have nowadays. Usually, you have set parameters and things you can mod in, you can't use or make your own custom scripts and assets.

I know I have seen some out of the ordinary/not vanilla stuff that is possible and that people have done. Like American loco sound mods where the bells sound at low speeds.

I do not think so unfortunately.

You could mod the train crossings to emit train horn sounds instead of rail crossing equipment chimes, but that would not sound too good.
