[HullTec] Monorail - Cargo Carriage

Description
UPDATE 16.12.2018
- carriage is now 2 blocks shorter. This allows to connect multiple carriages to connectors on the rail at once. (see picture)

MAJOR UPDATE - 14.12.2018
--------------------------------------------------------------
NEW FUNCTIONS: (still no mods)

Input-Output-System
- the carriage now has two sorters. One input sorter and one output sorter
- only one sorter is active at the same time. The other one is off by default.
- the carriage now has two yellow buttons at each side.
- upper button: switch between input & output
- input/output status is indicated by green arrows on displays (up= input, down=output)
- by default the sorters are set to blacklist with no active filtes. So the will basically let everything through.
- if you want the carriage to be only for ores, just set the sorters to whitelist and pick *ores* as filter
- you can also set the output sorter to whitelist *ores* and the input sorter to whitelist *ingots*. The carriage will then export all ores stored and import all availiable ingots at the same time. Helpful if you use the train with my ore refinery for example. The train will simply exchange all ores for ingots.

connector status light
- the lower yellow button will lock/unlock the connector
- a light beneath the button will always have the same color as the connector, so you can see if you are in range of e.g. the station's connector or if the connector is successfully locked

--------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION:

A Cargo carriage for my monorail system.
It has 8 large cargo containers and a connector (bottom). The connector is centered. You can load/unload the carriage with your conveyor system.


HOW TO USE:

01 Spawn blueprint
02 Attach blueprint to your railway
03 disconnect carriage from track (unlock connector)
04 convert carriage grid to ship

MONORAIL TESTWORLD 2.0
This carriage is included in my Monorail Testworld 2.0. You can test it there on a predesigned railroad track.

Hm, I'm aware that the cargo goes into the blind connectors partially but I didn't notice that the cargo can't be removed afterwards. I will try to fix this.

Im having issues where items put into the cargo carriage dont go to a cargo container, rather they end up in this blind connector and can not be removed from it. Any ideas?

oh thanks for telling me. I will fix that as soon as possible.

Or you could replace the 4 small juntion boxs to a another upside down blind connector, so all of the items go through the sorters.

Love the carriage but there is one thing. you have 4 small juntion boxes on top of the connector that does not work for moving items to the large cargo. Ive just place a large juntion on top of the connector to get it to work. No sure if you know this tho.

also I love the new coupler system, simple yet effective!
