Description
Hey,
With this modpack you get everything a cable car needs. Read instructions!

- stations (end and middle station) with different roofs, decoupling function, directly placeable masts and construction aid
- masts: wheels top/bottom/both, with bending and rotation
- Rope: as a placeable road between the masts/stations
- Gondola (as bus): five passenger gondolas, four material gondolas, chair lift with/without bubble - colourable, animations, passengers
Resource-saving: A single 2K texture in DDS format. Each gondola has under 2k triangles
-> approx. 40 gondolas result in a Siemens C2

Instructions:
Build:
1. Download CommonAPI Mod, ingame top left Common API - Roads and Track Toolbox - Change curves and gradients from 'Standard' to 'Without restriction' (larger slope possible). CommonAPI is not necessary and can be removed at all times. It simply allows higher slopes for building the cable car.
2. Place end station and middle station (bus stop) with desired parameters
3. Align and place masts (bus stop) (up/down also possible with picture up/down)
If construction assistance is required: Open station menu (upgrade), activate guide, do not close. Select mast, build. Close station menu.
4. Connect mast/station with rope (road)
5. Create line and assign vehicles
Snapping of masts on already existing roads is not recommended and can lead to a crash in rare cases! If someone knows how to prevent snapping, please let me know!

Upgrade:
- Stations can be changed at will
- masts: 1st street/roll off 2nd column select and upgrade

Delete:
- Simply tear down stations and masts
- Upgrade rope/road with bus lane and then tear off

Available: 1950

Material gondola based on Elli's basic model, chairlift based on InfinityRibbon's basic model
The mod (especially code and functionality) is based on 'Aerial Tram'.

Without my express written permission, the use of this mod in whole or in part is prohibited.The mod may not be uploaded to any other website or file host.

information for Modder:
Own vehicles can be published as buses at any time, so they can be used as gondolas with this mod. The maximum size of vehicles is 4x4 meters. The height is based on the stations and current models.
Own stations and masts are added with constructions as Street Station.
You may use the code (only the code! No textures, models, etc.) without agreement, as long as you can untangle it.

Any chance to convert this to TF2? Please :)

Yeah I didn‘t know that in the past. Also nobody reported that.
Crashes also can happen because UG bug.
I won‘t support tpf 1 anymore, sorry.

Under Linux, case sensitivity of file names is important. This mod doesn't follow that rule. I tried making symlinks for the offending files but after the third crash, I unsubscribed.

Not really. I want it too since we can now place cities on mountains so a cable car is useful.
Just their shit implementation... and modular stations are extremely difficult to mod.

I guess you can write to UG and see if they have any ideas (or are willing to implement it themselfs)... The more I think about how it can be implemented, the harder it looks. Thank you for your replay (I assume you are getting mad at people asking you to port this to TpF2 already :steamhappy: )

There is still no upgrade button. Therefore no possibility to change stations etc. once placed.
It's shit for cable cars. No progress at the moment.
MKH1020 10 Mar, 2020 @ 12:16pm 
Any progress? I think it would be possible to count the terminals as road terminals and tell people not to put more than two at a station... The joy of having a cable car is worth he risk :steamhappy:

Schwierig. UG hat die Stationen ziemlich verkompliziert.
Wird noch dauern.

Würde es toll finden wenn die Seilbahn auch für TF2 erscheinen würde. Dank im voraus. ;)
