With the announcement of the spring update's feature of sound everts at signals, I give you:

Whistle Posts!

Finally, horns at crossings can be a thing!

But, the update not only brought the option to sound a horn, you can do multiple types of horns.

Thus, 3 different kinds of whistle posts [per model!]

Note:

Currently the crossing post and station posts work only with certain sound types. To use for all vehicles, use the whistle posts category. For details, see below.

Modders:
I suggest we all use the same terms for our sound events and categories, to make them all function better for the players.

Here's what I used:

Whistle Posts
Sound Event:
signal = { soundevent = "horn", type = "WAYPOINT", upright = true, },
Category:
category = { categories = { "Generic Whistle Posts", } },

Crossing Posts
Sound event
signal = { soundevent = "crossing", type = "WAYPOINT", upright = true, },
Category
category = { categories = { "Crossing Posts", } },

Station Posts
Sound Event
signal = { soundevent = "short", type = "WAYPOINT", upright = true, },
Category
category = { categories = { "Station Posts", } },

Now accepting Skin commissions!

I updated these to work with all "horn" soundsets.

I do enjoy these, although I've yet to find a train that cares about the X and S posts, so have yet to get a train to blow the "Q" signal at all the crossings. Just one minor grief with the mod: once the posts are placed, it's impossible to delete them individually; have to delete the track it's attached to. Which gets a bit annoyed when I have to relocate them

Oh nice I'll try to figure it out :yazdwink:

Depending on the locomotive absolutely, it's about the .wav files that are used for the locomotive, as well as the sound config file.

Hey, I'm relatively new to the game and have been loving this mod :projectstarship_smile:

However, I've been wondering... is there a way to have the train use the same "3 beep" horn as when it's leaving a station, instead of a single "honk" when using the "W" whistle post?

Ah I was wondering why my station and crossing posts was not working. Other that those two. Its a great mod.

"Currently the crossing post and station posts work only with certain sound types. To use for all vehicles, use the whistle posts category. For details, see below."

Basically, only the W posts work at the moment and the others are reserved for actual sound events that have to be created.

We did, I have trial (beta) turned on and it still doesn't work as it should.

You should read the description.
