Description:
Red's Track Sensors is a custom SCO package of various proximity sensors and track mounting hardware to dress up your ride with a fully functional sensor system. There are currently 5 different styles of sensor, all modeled after Pepperl+Fuсhs' iconic sensors used on most modern real coasters. Each sensor is fully recolorable, and has functional indicator LEDs that will illuminate when a train passes over, all automatically - without any manual track triggers. The pack also comes with a handful of recolorable mounting hardware for most coaster types. This hardware can be manually placed, or easily snapped to the closest track for perfect alignment. Multiple sensors can then be easily snapped to any position, on any mount, simply by putting them in proximity of a mount. All items are designed to be "one size fits all", with multiple configuration options to position them, and their mounts, in any orientation you would like.



What's Included:
Sensors
  • Regular Proximity Sensor (w/ top or side targets)
  • Old Style Proximity Sensor (w/ top or side targets)

How to Use:
  • I tried my best to make the pack super user friendly, and it's entirely possible to pick it up without any prior instruction.
  • However, to learn how to use the pack as efficiently as possible, please read the short README.html in the pack for best practices.
  • If you have any issues with the pack, please comment below and I will update the pack or answer your question as soon as I can.

@Wessel983 You mean the "Special Track to move with" setting? If your coaster has a special track (like a transfer table or switch track) it will appear in the list and you can select it. If you do, the sensor (or mounting rail) will move with that special track if it moves.

@GraSh Load up the park in the editor > File > Extract Package > Choose a place to extract it

Then, close the game and find the folder you extracted to in your file explorer. Within it will be a "scenery" folder, and within that will be the pack's folder called "reds_track_sensors". You can copy that folder to the folder of any park you would like to use it in.

Within that "reds_track_sensors" folder is a README.html that you can double click to read in your web browser (highly recommended to learn how to use the pack properly).

Happy sensing! :D
