Default Idea for supply system is this possible

I was thinking about creating a train and a train line for a factions supply system,

You would have to build the station which would have the idenity of the supply station and then you build tracks which i work code like a wall or something that lead of the screen to connect to the train, the train comes in and works like a supply drop as the train comes in money racks up, the train comes in from time to time.


is it possible with the current .ini files
i mean i think it is considering all the parts are there I just not as famliar if its possible with given code.

I have a train system, but its far easier just to have a station by the track for a faction. Simply give it a periodic cash injection and time that with the passing train.

Your method may work, I've not thought of doing it that way, but it depends if you can use DeliverPayload with a ground object as opposed to aircraft.

maybe i could do a underground tunnel system as not to have to model the tracks, yea but with your method the train station is already bulit when the map loads, and what the units just cap the train station and it works like a oil rig. I was thinking about but it might be to much bs to get to work, If i can do a underground train station i coudl just have the opening in a tunnel and a animation of the train poping up and out of it and docking and resource injections

Aye, that's how it works - it is essentially an oil rig in different clothes.

ummm you know making a model for this would be.....well hard, because of map sizes, if you did the under ground one it would be much easyer.
