Hello I have a question, is it possible to define more costs for one wagon?
So to have one wagon and get anything set up?

I was busy on another issue in these days. Now I'll try to provide at least some reply.

The link provided about Coolhand is really interesting, I think few knew that there are so many pickup options hidden in MSTS.

LoadingStartDelay isn't active at the moment.

Replying to Howky, it is possible to define for the same wagon more types of possible load, but the wagon can be loaded only with a load at a time. The syntax is not the one Howky shows, but the one described in paragraph 9.3.2 of the manual.

Coolhand, why are you saying that 'Coal_freight' refill rate cannot be adjusted? If you define a pickup of type coal_freight you can define the Fill rate for it.

Well, I have no problem setting the wagon for one type of cargo.

I looked at the instructions, but I did not find how to set more costs for one wagon.

It is clear to me that in the game I am going to load the wagon with one kind, but I would just want to load it, go out and then ride a different kind of cargo with the same wagon.



Here is Vag for one type of cargo and coal. It works

Carlo
I have adjusted the Coal_freight fill rate pickup many times in the past via RE or the world file, ie -10 to -50000 but in OR, the fill rate appears fixed. Coal_fuel fill rate is adjustable and works 100% in OR.

Thanks

Sorry Coolhand, but the adjustable fill rate for coal_freight works to me.

I'm unsure why this is not working for me?. I will go back to my test route and change the fill rate again.

Thanks

If "UnloadingStartDelay" ( * ) is set to 1 in the ORTSFreightAnims section, you can press the T key just once when the wagon is over the pickup and the coal will automatically unload from 100% to 0%.

I didn't know I had implemented that... Jokes apart, it's an unwanted feature. As I see that it can be useful, I must study it a bit to see if it easy to add the sound.

Many thanks for looking into that.

I just tested again, and the fill rate for coal_freight is fixed, regardless of what fill rate setting i put in the pickup. Very odd this is not working for me?

Thanks

So, there was a misunderstanding. It's not the fill rate for coal_freight that has no effect, but the unload rate.
I fixed this in x.3897.
