Description
This mod is now obsolete, use https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3448356257 instead.


Annoy your wife with these tiny fake train depots that make various station announcements!

You will find them from 1925 in the station depot menu. Pick one and plop it wherever you like. Repeat to taste.
You can have different stations make different announcements, and even the same station make a jumble of different announcements in German, Italian, Russian, English, Japanese and French - or just more of the same.

You can adjust the volume in the mod settings.

Note that it takes a minute or so before the announcements start coming.
Also note that early releases could cause an unhandled crash when replacing a train. To fix it, you may need to remove all your fake depots and rebuild them. Blame UG for unhandled crashes.

Planned NS Announcement ?

For train sounds, try my other train sounds mod.
Catching "train approaching" involves adding code that slows down the game, because there is no public event for that. Playing my own sound effects on command, instead of pre-built ones such as bulldozer_large, seems to be barred.

Amazing mod!
I would love it if you could make this mod customizable.
- The user can copy their own MP3 audio files into the mod folder.
- In-game, via a UI, the user can select a sound for each station and track to play:
When a train is approaching.
When a train's doors open.
When a train's doors close.

This way, I could easily mimic Japanese train stations, which have a "train approaching" melody and a melody when the train departs (with different melody or announcement depending on the line).

I could try that but it would cost CPU: the game does not expose the "train approaching" event, so I'd have to check repeatedly with game_config.update() if a train takes up a piece of track heading into the station. I do something like that with dynamic displays and priority signals, and I have switches to turn them off if the game slows down. I might try that in future.

Can this mod be used to make announcements as a Train is approaching a station? I want the sound file to only play when a Train is past the last signal before a station. I would like it to say "There is a Train approaching the Station; please step away from the platform edge."

People have told me this is not possible to do, but your mod description sounds like it will accomplish this.

@lollus I found a few more old videos on YouTube that could help which are fake announcements.
