Future trains list?

[6000 Chipmunks]

Is there a way(ingame or not), to get a list of trains/consits and what year they become available in the game.

I find myself waiting for long periods for the one train/waggon/bus that I need but find it is not an option to see what becomes available in the next year or years.

I guess I could manualy create such a list if I played the entire game, and wrote down what became available when, and then do the same for every subscribed mod I have, but this is quite the undertaking, and I was hoping there might have been some kind of mod, already created, that could parse the files, and list them.

I have no idea how to mod this game, or I would create such a thing myself. If I had a few months to mess with it. ;)

Perhaps if I used the "all trains available from the start" mod, I might be able to see that info and record it. I might need to look and see if all of them list their availablity dates while using that mod.

Well there is stuff in the guides section such as for the vanilla , for mods not so much .

Using the all trains available from the start just changes the start date to 1850 or whatever - overwriting what is in the file so you would lose the actual start date .

There is no such list in-game. If you are using mods you need to check their description or files.

Edit: dammit Autocoach!!! Why are you always faster by 30 seconds?! ^^

Thanks so much, both of you. This is awesome.

Thanks also to cszolee79, for the laughs!

Also, just wanted to say... guess this would work with mods as well if ye were trying to figure out their availability. But, couldn't you just setup a 2nd game. Custom Option > Set Year to the max > go into the cheats section and set it for No Vehicle End Year. Then, ingame. Write down the availability years for the vehicles so you know when they come unlocked?

Good idea! My brain-thingy sometimes takes a break without asking permission. :)

No problem, my friend. Glad I could give an idea. I have that problem as well, sometimes. Was playing INFRA a little while ago, trying to figure out a puzzle. My brain was like... NOPE! Took a small break, and decided to read a wee bit in a walkthrough. Found the puzzle I was working with. Sat there looking at the instruction and all I could think to myself was, REALLY? LOL

LOL!
Your idea really is the best answer to this question as it would included mods as well as vanilla vehicles. It would take a bit more effort to document all of it, but it would work for sure. I guess I could use a spreadsheet and then if I add more mods I could just update it as I go.
