Small & Compact Truck and Cargotram Station

Description
The Vanillastations looks often a bit misplaced and inept, specially outside of a town. therefore i made this mod, that allowed a discrete loading- and unloadingplatoform. But also some bigger stations are doable of course.

With parameters are different adjustment possible:

- Platform length 10m - 80m
- Platform width normal or narrow
- Platform type high, low or ground
- 1 to 3 Terminals
- You can select individually for every terminal, if it's for truck, tram or electric tram. It's not "all or nothing" like at the vanilla stations.
- Type of the connection street selectable
- 6 different positions for entry and exit
- selectable border (fence, wall, curb or nothing)
- selectable ground texture
- optional signs
- optional light
- optional foodpath connections (those small automatic connections between street and station)

With invisible ground texture, connection street or platform, you can paint your own with the Painting tool.

Help, the station doesn't have connection to the buildings!
When using certain road mods, it is possible that the station has no connection to the buildings via the road. Try a different road type or use the foodpath connections.

@Chris
Bus stops are not affected by this mod as they are not modular.
Slider is a good idea. Let me learn how to edit.

@Ragno
Maybe try some mod like this, although it is not completely invisible.

Hi, is there a way to make a truck station cargo completely invisible for customization? I want to create an industry with an invisible cargo station inside.

Thanks for the confirmation, most appreciated.

"Higher Cargo Capacity" has the same effect than the storage buildings at the vanilla stations, but it's not a visible building, just more capacity. You probably cant't add it to a existing station, when the station has a collision with something.

Another point. Understanding that the max length of the terminal is 80m and you can't add cargo storage buildings, it seems, what does the function do that you can select "Higher Cargo Capacity"...?
How much is added to the cargo terminal before its maximum capacity is reached..?

Thanks

Ah, thanks for the explanation. Not having a great deal of experience with the game I hadn't figured out that the placing of permanent traffic lights was a game bug.
But then I started to use wider roads and the vanilla truck station......................and found out...!
Not sure how long that issue has been there, surprised it hasn't been addressed.

Thanks again for your help, appreciated.

This is a bug by the game. You will have the same problem when you place any other station or depot directy to a big road. I have no possibility to influence this.

Wonderful, wonderful many thanks for sharing.

When I place a station and it happens to be placed on a large country road I get a full set of traffic lights placed on the road entrance and the road exit from the truck station.
Even with the traffic overlay these are not able to be deleted. Any ideas, I don't see them as an option to place or not..?

Thanks

was ich ja noch gerne hätte : separate Zu- und Abfahrtsstrassen je Terminal
das Fahrzeuge parallel einfahren können :-)

For buses, it's easier to use the shelter bus stops.
