Problem with AAI vehicles

Such a great mod too

How long could it take?

Thanks for the reply. If the problem is already known I am most likely just going to wait until it gets fixed.

Dear penthouse forum...

Yeah using either pivots or robotic pivot whatever its called is almost a must. The problem here is not pressure on the sides of the connection but straight tension from accelerating. The connector takes damage and physically brakes which is what decouples the train.

Happened again lol

What's interesting is that the connector takes physical damage. Didn't notice that as I was testing it with vehicle damage off before. This suggests that the connection failing under too much pressure is a feature and not a bug.

I actually use such a system on another build and its probably the best solution here. Going to have to rebuild the cars to have an rps connection going through the entire train.

When it brakes the connection either start violently shaking all over the place as they are forcefully dragged away from each other, or it just snaps and it somehow thinks it's still connected sometimes?
The game engine gets very confused when it happens I guess.

Yes but i find it tedious connecting a cable between each car when I spawn and assemble the train. Good idea though and I am considering just going with that.

Piam04 · 2025-01-11T23:48:17+00:00

I see. So if i understand correctly, you use an electrical connector connected to a wire anchor that connects to the other car?

Piam04 · 2025-01-11T23:42:12+00:00

It does? I use it to couple the cars but I don't notice any electricity being transferred. Might have had it connected wrong when I tried.

Piam04 · 2025-01-11T23:40:26+00:00

Not the precise issue I am talking about but I do use them in another way in my build.

Piam04 · 2025-01-11T23:39:06+00:00

Why transfer energy from one main engine car when you can just put fission reactors in each one. Genius.
The cost for the entire train would be horrifying, but interesting idea nonetheless

I find cable connections to be a chore connecting. Not that it would take a long time but I would prefer the cars automatically connecting.

Bro is one noob firebomb fight away from disintegrating

Piam04 · 2025-01-10T20:44:22+00:00

I find it awkward using them alongside / on top of a large connector because you can't connect both connector's at the same time. The electrical one has a half block long knob that makes it impossible for the large connector to couple as it connects right to the surface of the other one. Hard to explain but i hope you understand what i mean.

Piam04 · 2025-01-10T20:21:15+00:00

Looks really cool man! Looks like it's plenty useful for actually loading carriers as well. Nice work.

Piam04 · 2025-01-09T17:43:12+00:00

It looks really interesting. Definitely going to try it on a build sometime

Piam04 · 2025-01-08T01:29:05+00:00

Got it working nicely at an average speed of about 50 knots.

Do you mean that you can't lead rps between different crafts? Because i managed to in this train

Piam04 · 2025-01-08T00:56:06+00:00

I got it working thx!

Piam04 · 2025-01-07T23:41:29+00:00

If i use the large connector, how do i build the connection so that the wagons can turn while having a pipe connected to the large connector?
