A way to approach red signals like stations (it will also be useful to warn player controlled trains of an oncoming red signal if your render distance is low)

YES! I WANT! A hud icon telling you the status of the next signal.

yup

and most people refuse to make the signals viable 😦

thats a completely different idea
soft hull
It’s the same idea
delicate sail
i dont want it to force it to stop
its not
i want it to be able to approach a red signal like a station
not stop at a red signal automatically when wearing a hat
soft hull
i want it to be able to approach a red signal like a station
Which is arguably more of a pain
delicate sail
Which is arguably more of a pain
why would it
soft hull
Having to constantly press space bar when approaching intersections just in case it switches to red
delicate sail
Having to constantly press space bar when approaching intersections just in case...
no?
it would show up
like a station approach
and if you see it you can choose to press spacebar
soft hull
When HB’s idea is simply that it will automatically do the stopping for you
As long as you where a conductors cap
delicate sail
thats not rlly create-y tbh
soft hull
and if you see it you can choose to press spacebar
Isn’t the point of your idea to assist in manual train stopping
delicate sail
i rlly prefer my idea lol
delicate sail
Isn’t the point of your idea to assist in manual train stopping
the point is that you dont miss signals anymore
soft hull
And crashes ofc
soft hull
the point is that you dont miss signals anymore
But HB’s idea ENSURES that it dosent happen
delicate sail
if you play low render distance and low acceleration often times oyu cant react quick enough to stop at a signal
delicate sail
But HB’s idea ENSURES that it dosent happen
what if you wanna go through the red signal?
also thats not how trains work irl
at least
not steam trains
soft hull
what if you wanna go through the red signal?
You take off the conductors hat then
Problem solved
soft hull
The idea sounds good on paper
delicate sail
then you disagree
delicate sail
and more realistic and more create-y
soft hull
HB’s idea is more accessible as well
delicate sail
i dont see the issue
soft hull
i dont see the issue
Think of it like th is
delicate sail
HB’s idea is more accessible as well
"oh no, i have to press space bar! what a disaster"
soft hull
If you have a low reaction time
delicate sail
then you would miss stations to
point invalid
also
slowing down with S is quicker than with spacebar
soft hull
And you accidentally cause a crash
soft hull
Then there’s an issue of needing to realign the train
delicate sail
Then there’s an issue of needing to realign the train
why would you need that lol
when you are slow enough the spacebar thing will show up again
so i dont see your point at all
soft hull
why would you need that lol
*reput onto the track
delicate sail
also what the fuck are you even trying
delicate sail
you are trying to tell me my suggestion that I specifically made to be a good suggestion is bad
of course i disagree with you
soft hull
As the hat will take over with less issue
delicate sail
now please shut up
i thought its clear i disagree with you
i see your point
but i disagree with it
delicate sail
https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838
why not? are you trying to start an argument?
soft hull
But It’s not executed properly
That’s the issue
You will automatically think it’s good
Cause you made the idea
delicate sail
You will automatically think it’s good
and you cant change that
soft hull
And are biased because of it
delicate sail
so get out of this channel go do something useful
delicate sail
And are biased because of it
no shit sherlock its almost as if we have different opinions!!11111
soft hull
so get out of this channel go do something useful
I am doing something useful. I’m validating my statements to represent the major flaws in your idea
delicate sail
the flaw you are on about is subjective
soft hull
the flaw you are on about is subjective
You are thinking for yourself. Think bigger
Think of a larger perspective
From the perspective of the player using such a feature
To the player
delicate sail
listen
from the perspective of other players
all i see this being is a good feature
and better implemented than HB
delicate sail
YES! I WANT! A hud icon telling you the status of the next signal.
is this not enough proof?
now please
shut
the
fuck
up
soft hull
Having to constantly look out for the space bar is not good design. Especially in tight situations where lots and lots of signals are in use
But
delicate sail
im begging
delicate sail
Having to constantly look out for the space bar is not good design. Especially i...
why do you think stations work like that
delicate sail
What one dude.
nobody but you has said its bad
2 ppl think its good vs 1 person thinks its bad
soft hull
But
If the game can auto do it then it will reduce the hassle of needing to look out for signals to stop at
delicate sail
If the game can auto do it then it will reduce the hassle of needing to look out...
well i dont like that
soft hull
why do you think stations work like that
Stations are less used the signals. Its not an issue with stations cause there’s less of them
soft hull
If there were stations everywhere then you will find issues of trying to properly align with the one of your choosing
soft hull
2 ppl think its good vs 1 person thinks its bad
Also HB’s idea has received more attention then yours
coral sonnet
enough
soft hull
Fine
coral sonnet
both ideas serve a similar purpose but are unique in their way of implementation
which will be implemented
delicate sail
Also HB’s idea has received more attention then yours
almost as if they posted before me
coral sonnet
is up to the mod team
soft hull
or do something useful with your life
But your still a shitty person
turbid lindenBOT
coral sonnet
raptor enough also applies to reactions
when i said enoiugh i meant leave it not react to shit in a toxic manner to not continue chatting
delicate sail
anyways back on topic of the suggestion i guess
coral sonnet
yea lol
anyway i think your idea gives more freedom and is less bulky that stratos's however it might get annoying as something like this isnt a thing everyone wants
both have their advantages and disadvantages
delicate sail
anyway i think your idea gives more freedom and is less bulky that stratos's how...
eh, tbh i dont think it will be that bad since you can just ignore it lol
its just a small pop up at the bottom
distant dawn
I'd like a warning about a red light ahead
delicate sail
like train stations
delicate sail
I'd like a warning about a red light ahead
what do you think about being able to approach it by holding space?
delicate sail
I don't exactly see w reason for that
same reason you would approach a station yk
distant dawn
not really
delicate sail
they could have just made it that if you are within a 1 block radius of it
it activates
at least thats how i see it
distant dawn
when you approach a station with space
you can disassemble a train
and it shows the current state
delicate sail
yeah i know
delicate sail
they could have just made it that if you are within a 1 block radius of it
but this
they could have done this
distant dawn
I think signals already have redstone behavior
delicate sail
maybe a middleground
?
coral sonnet
hold space, u can ovveride it
delicate sail
wear a conductors hat, ur affected by signals
or a config option?
also fyi
im not against HB's idea
i think raptor may have made you think that
i like his too
like we could just have both
distant dawn
oh that actually reminded me of sth
delicate sail
like without a hat you need to use space, or theres a warning or smth
whereas if you have a hat
distant dawn
in a train sim I played
delicate sail
it does it automatically
delicate sail
in a train sim I played
oh?
coral sonnet
ahh i just feel like having to hold space to stop at a signal kinda defeats the point of not having to care, and having signals decide if you should go for you
coral sonnet
like without a hat you need to use space, or theres a warning or smth
warning sounds good
from afar
distant dawn
you have an hud element that shows the state of the next signal
coral sonnet
hmm
might be a bit weird
considering there are interesctions
hmm actually
holding space to stop could work
so if you
delicate sail
ahh i just feel like having to hold space to stop at a signal kinda defeats the ...
wdym
coral sonnet
wanna obey traffic laws just continously hold space
like
if you have to start holding space
when you get close
its weird
but if you can hold space 1000 bloicks away and itll stop you when you get there
might be cool
delicate sail
but if you can hold space 1000 bloicks away and itll stop you when you get there
might be compat issues with stations
coral sonnet
like aslong as you can hold space and itll work for signals rgardless of when you started it i think itll be cool
coral sonnet
might be compat issues with stations
ah well gotta stop holding it near stations
delicate sail
like aslong as you can hold space and itll work for signals rgardless of when yo...
yeah
and maybe if you get close
theres a pop up
like stations
coral sonnet
yeah that sounds good
delicate sail
but you can just hold space
delicate sail
and the pop up opens up anyawy
coral sonnet
when the pop up appears
delicate sail
in the same way you would approach stations
delicate sail
when the pop up appears
yeah
coral sonnet
if you hold space b4 the pop up appears i dont think it works
delicate sail
what if
coral sonnet
(from b4)
delicate sail
you make it so you can approach stations from anywhere too
distant dawn
I might make some concepts around these ideas
delicate sail
if you hold space b4 the pop up appears i dont think it works
yeah it doesnt
sharp basin
jesus what happened here
I was linked here from my suggestion
Honestly I would also like to have a server option to force every player train to also always obey signals, no matter what. Forces people to not crash and to signal properly
delicate sail
Honestly I would also like to have a server option to force every player train t...
server option sounds good
but what do you think abt my suggestion?
sharp basin
Something I would likely find a bit annoying to have a popup for, don't like that. What I can get behind is holding space when wearing a hat to skip over a red signal.
tall stag
so
what im hearing
is if the server config is on
you'll always stop at a red/yellow signal
elseif you're wearing a conductor's hat
you'll stop at a red/yellow signal, but can hold space to skip it
else
a popup will appear when approaching a red/yellow signal, and can hold space to stop at it
delicate sail
a popup will appear when approaching a red/yellow signal, and can hold space to ...
yeah this sounds good
burnt herald
I made an easy signal system, its a video on my channel. Check it out Green, Yellow, and Red
tall stag
link?
tall stag
so it basically just makes the signals easier to read?
tall stag
is if the server config is on
if i had a nickle for every time i used google slides to visualise something ive explained in text
id have two nickles
which isnt a lot
but its weird that it happened twice
burnt herald
so it basically just makes the signals easier to read?
pretty much if a train is on the next track itll show a red light
and once it passes that block it turns yellow
