Does the mod change the catenary? I have LexyGone's dutch catenary replacement active but it doesn't work on your track

s***. I forgot that pushing an update would override the description. Well, if I can find the original worksheet maybe I'll do that on Sunday.

@DeBones I've pushed the update (managed to find some time this week). I'm not sure when steam makes this stuff available, but once it is give it a try. The tracks this mod adds should inherit the characteristics of the base tracks now - so any mod that modifies those should get picked up (unless it's one of the traits this mod modifies, of course). Should be no problem loading up a save, though I haven't tried that yet myself.

I also reused the existing icons for the station track modules and created gitlab repos for these mods (for multiple reasons). Don't know why I didn't do that from the start.

If you run into issues, let me know what you're seeing and I'll get to it when I'm able.

10-4. The Steam ID for the mod is 2355900055

Sorry for the response, I've been conditioned by work to associate "incompatible" with "it crashed", and made that assumption here.

Now that you mention the issue I have noticed that, I just never cared for my own use.

Not gonna lie, I've lost the original files since publishing this (computer was wiped) so I'm going to have to find the steam version of the mod, get everything set up again (assuming it will remap) and re-learn how to mod this game. But I'm on call on Sunday, so I can't do anything else interesting anyway. Might see what I can do then.

I can't make any promises though. Even if I get time to look into it I have no idea why it's not using the bumpstop when it does seem to be using some of the other assets.

I did indeed mean the US Track Set, my bad. The problem I'm having is both versions of these classification mods aren't using the US bumpstop. It uses the default European buffers instead.

Do you mean "US Track Set"? I did a workshop search for "US Track Asset" and nothing with that name came up. Not sure if I'll have time to get around to this, but it certainly won't happen if I don't know what mod you're talking about.

If you did mean "US Track Set", I've never had issues using this with it - I've been playing with that combination of mods for a couple of years now. If you're getting an error using it, I'd be interested in knowing what that is.

That being said, I'm a tad more amenable to suggestions than demands, so the priority in which additions to this mod are worked will reflect that.

Make these compatible with the US Track Asset mod

DeBones: It's all cosmetic. It's just a way to replace the old group of tracks with a more cost appropriate version for the year as the game progresses, and to give a surface level reason as to why they cost so much more. I haven't looked into it, but my bet is (sadly) that any sort of Positive Train Control or advanced signaling of any kind is probably beyond the mechanics of the game. Not that I would really consider block signalling "advanced signalling", but you get my point.

That being said, the terrible consequences of human error that PTC is there to eliminate doesn't really exist in this game. More advanced signalling would be pretty awesome though.
