Mega Rail Hub #2 - Train alternative

Description
QUICK DESCRIPTION:

A modified version of Mega Rail Hub #2 by the excellent @Klyte that modifies it to be compatible with the current game by replacing the DEPRECATED: Shinkansen Station Track with a standard ground train if you like this, please also give a like to the original. I am considering testing upgrading the Shinkansen to the current working v2 version, or testing if this is now essentially obsolete using @Klyte's Touch This! Tool 4.

Details:
This is a station with 6 connections:

Standard Monorail [Mass Transit DLC]
MAGLEV Monorail
Ground Metro¹ (MOM)
Ground Rail [Vanilla]
Underground Metro¹ (MOM)
Underground Regular Train [Vanilla] (Fake Sunken)²

¹ Due to ground metro being added to the base game, it may be possible to change these to the vanilla (free patch with Sunset Harbor) metro, however, it uses an integrated station which I believe is associated with MOM
² You will need to either need to use @Klyte's Touch This! Tool 4 to remove the node or use Fine Road Anarchy 2 to correctly hook up the "Fake Sunken" underground train station. I am considering removing it or replacing it with a more properly functional version, such as available as some asset creator resources.

Requirements
• Mass Transit DLC
• MOM and it's dependencies
• Maglev Station tracks and it's dependencies/related assets
• Fine Road Anarchy 2 or Touch This! Tool 4 to place tracks. (see above note)

Design Notes
Thumbnail is not the final design, I will try to export the full resolution original and modify it.

You can just use the vanilla one, and customize it with the current tools provide

Good to know about MOM I stopped using it since it broke my metro lines every time I loaded back in to the city. but I honestly just meant like asset pictures for the workshop page. Also if MOM is no longer supported perhaps an update to the mod requirements is needed. Not trying to be a Duck just thought I should say something.

Turns out I can't make every possible option one may desire
codewitch  [author] 18 Mar, 2022 @ 7:09am 
@Ludicrous Arts - I could, but you should probably use RON, Network Multitool, or both going forward. MOM isn't supported, and I can't use the asset - I myself just use tools instead

It looks so cool but I can't totally tell what it looks like. would you be able to add more pictures?

@zzxmty absolutely. The more I got into it, it seemed to just make more sense to have the tools to do it at runtime rather than do make different versions with all possible combinations (actually permutations since order matters). (Trust me, permutations add up quickly). Apart from that, modular stations are a thing, and it's a shame that some don't support some transport types...might be something to do about that.

Thank you, you reminded me. But I now Touch This! 4 is not available for me for some reason.
I should probably study where the problem is, because it seems to be more useful.

@zzxmty

Before I do so, however, can I confirm a few things:
1. Given the functionality of Touch This! 4, you still need this update. Part of the reason I didn't make more variants is specifically that it's ultimately pointless when you can already configure it whichever you way you want using either a combination of that and certain assets
2. Station configuration - do you just want exactly Klyte45's version or is there a more useful configuration we can agree on?
2a. Do you still want the "fake sunken" U-rail
2a.1. do you want to "fix" the fake sunken to make it...not fake
2b. Should I explicitly include MOM, or do you think it's safe to leave them as vanilla (MOM should be able to override if installed)
2c. Take a look at the original station and start from there.
2d. Which monorails make sense? Both MAGLEV
3. Would it make more sense to try and adopt a custom modular station for this purpose.

I will look into updating the station tracks from vanilla (instead of editing Klyte45's version). This may fix the After Dark lighting issue.
