[orwell]

Me and a friend.
ATM It's not for public, maybe we will release it later.
It's actually a map that we began building in Minec***t and converted.

When i installed new version and started my world i got error:
"<invalid UTF-8 string>
<invalid UTF-8 string>
<invalid UTF-8 string>
<invalid UTF-8 string>"
Why is it so?

[Andrey01]

yes, you can't move wagons, only engines. Also, steam engines only connect to the green wagons (and other steam engines), the subway engine only connects to subway engines and the japanese engine only connects to japanese wagons/other japanese engines.
to couple 2 wagons, you need to push them together using an engine:
- place wagon,wagon,engine
- drive engine towards the wagons until it stops
- get off
- connect wagon and engine (green icon rightclick)
- drive engine and first wagon towards the last wagon
- get off again and couple
voila, you have a train.

What is it "green icon"?

Why is it so?

Full debug.txt log please
the green icon should have been replaced by a proper icon in the latest version

In debug.txt nothing was wrote.I am not understanding, is green icon this a item in the mod?

[orwell]

Yes, the green icon was the icon for the japanese engine.
This <invalid utf8 string> stuff ist not an error, you can play the game anyway, right?

[Andrey01]

"Green icon" i haven`t searched that item in my inventory

[mbb]

i made other textures

[DS-minetest]

@mbb: looks like the current rail texture, only edited. i think, the edit doesnt look good
Edit: and please make uv maps to your models instead of just coloring them, in minetest it doesnt look that good (i think you colored it, idk because i did never color models)

[Andrey01]

I think would be good to add new trains, for example: fast passenger train, freight wagon with some coal, empty freight wagon, carts, electric train and generator of rails and trains

[orwell]

Edit: and please make uv maps to your models instead of just coloring them, in minetest it doesnt look that good (i think you colored it, idk because i did never color models)

My workflow with your models: 1. Smart uv project 2. Bake full texture 3. Save as image.
Done in 1 minute.
And it doesn't look soo bad

[orwell]

The japanese train drives 20 meters/second, minetest can hardly handle this, no more speed. Mine railway is planned. (maybe even on default rails?!). There are some freight wagons ( see industrial/box wgn.)

On the other side, my trains hypothetically can drive faster than 100 m/s (means it works) but stopping such a train because of

minetest's buggy object management system

is not fun.

[orwell]

Update 1.3.0
The train controls now work different. See the readme.txt for info how they work.
If you dislike the new controls, tell me here. EDIT: I like them.
Also fixes various bugs. EDIT: and you get off on the platform if there is a platform

[DS-minetest]

nice
but hud doesnt get removed if pressed shift + e

[orwell]

Known bug. I have no idea why.
EDIT: Ah, now when I think about it...
EDIT2: Fixed.

In the minetest's main-menu/mods-tab, mods without a description.txt
show up with "No mod description available".

How about adding a description.txt, with contents like this:
