Are these still used by OR .wags?
  • NumWheels()
  • InteriaTensor()
  • Aheadsion() <--obsolete
  • DerailHeight()
  • DerailRailForce ()
  • DerailBufferForce ()



For those with a "no" answer is there any chance they'd be used again when whatever code for them is written/fixed?

I'm looking for those that are not just dead, dead, and DEAD but also have a wooden stake driven thru their heart

Any other MSTS parms I overlooked?

Although you want an 100% answer, AFAIK, none of the above wag parameters have any effect in OR atm!

NumWheels is certainly used for locomotives (driven wheels). At the moment, I can't see a specific use for wagons, however I would recommend maintaining it in the WAG files for the time being.

NumWheels in wagons was never used in either MSTS or OR. Even though the MSTS documentation stated that it affected wagon braking, I found changing it had no effect whatsoever. No harm leaving it in WAG files however.
