Siemens Nexas Rebalance

Description
Rebalance and improvement patch for Luke.P123's Siemens Nexas mod. Single deck suburban passenger train with a crush capacity of 792 and 1584 in a 3 and 6 carriage set respectively.
! ! IMPORTANT ! !
This mod is a modification to, and continuation of, Luke.P123's "Siemens Nexas"
To avoid my having to redistribute other people's textures, you must download Luke.P123's original mod, else the trains will not have any textures. It does not need to be enabled in your save, but it must be subscribed and appear as available in the mod selection panel.
If you are subscribed and the textures still do not appear, ensure it appears as available in the in-game mods panel. If not then unsub and resub to both mods and restart your game to ensure its downloaded.

The Siemens Nexas is an electric multiple unit train manufactured by Siemens Transportation Systems in Vienna, Austria for Melbourne's suburban rail network. Based on the Siemens Modular Metro, 72 trains of 3 car sets were ordered by franchise operator M>Train and entered service in 2003 to replace ageing Hitachi trains. M>Train however never operated the trains, as they handed the franchise back to the Government of Victoria in December 2002 who then passed it to Connex in April 2004.

This is a rebalance patch for Luke.P123's Siemens Nexas Mod. This mod corrects acceleration values, adds a colourable variant to all cars and tweaks carriage length to correct anomalies. The mod also allows custom compositions, and adds driving trailer and non-driving motor variants to facilitate more configurations.

This mod implements the design specifications, instead of their current operational limits, to allow more freedom for the end user. In Victorian service these Siemens trains are limited to 115km/h operating speed, and 1.0m/s² acceleration, which can be set by line in game. Power per motor unit increased to 720kW each, in line with X'Trapolis and HCMT mods, as it makes more sense for the train role and speed.
