Track Assembly Tool support seems broken
Every time I try to build a track with the train props, often I can't snap them together, and when I do, It doesn't even connect. Instead it places the track next to the previous. The switch tracks are basically useless with this tool as they can't connect to anything. I could use Smart Welder, but it doesn't even recognise the rails, so that is unusable.

And I'm using the 64-bit branch btw.

Yeah a fix would be nice, but considering the awful state this is in, if it is in a state at all, there might not be any hope in fixing this bug.

Still, a life hack would be nice.

Why do you report a Track Assembly Tool issue to me?
I'm not the developer of the tool.

If you have trouble using the tool, then there is nothing I can do.



EDIT 1:
I still looked into the issue.
Next time be more specific that you only have one attachment point per rail and it have something to do with my stuff. You should always mention that when I need to understand the issue correctly, I can't read minds dude. In the first moment your report just sounded for me like a bug report for the TA Tool in general.

Anyways, we take care of this problem.



EDIT 2:
Changed your title from:
Track Assembly Tool isn't Functionally Correct
to:
Track Assembly Tool support seems broken

i am also having this issue. it's not letting me snap together the parts for the suspension train tracks.
We talked with the developer of the tool. It seems that he made a mistake in his code.

In the tool you can add rail pieces via LUA with vectors and angles or with model attachments. We use for all our addons model attachments. It's easier and the Track Assembly Tool offer this method.

But like I said, it seems the developer of the tool made a mistake and broke this function. So we have to wait patiently until he fix it. There is at the moment nothing what I can do.

We are aware of the problem and are working on it! :steamthumbsup:

WAIT A MINUTE, I'VE COME BACK FROM HOLIDAY AND IT WORKS NOW?!
Anyway, I guess I just needed to restart Gmod. I apologise if I was rude in any form, or I didn't explain the issue well. Should I delete this page now?

Since the issue is fixed and I also tested it positive again we can close that case.

Closed as solved!
