Small Rail Cargo Station

very practical.

ok, fair point

@Serious Czech That's why its a mod and not integral part of the game. For me it makes sense and people find it usefull. It is not my goal to make it 100% realistic. I choosed two tracks instead of one to make more of it as i previously wrote. Im not sorry about connections leading into tracks as vanilla buildings do it all the time. This game is hard as it is and through my creations i try to make player's life easier while experimenting with some fun ideas.

sirious cringe, who cares about your meltdown, you cant even notice how realistic platforms works so shut up cringehead

Keeping it a single rail should then be sufficient, ain´t it? Something similar to vanilla cargo unloading, only longer. Because what you have is a passenger island-type platform, not a cargo one.

Unloading cargo to sides have usually a ramp or at least a solid ground, not grass. That´s why we are changing things with my friend in "better connectivity thread" here in steam discussions - so it makes more realistic in terms of use.

Honestly - having these as side platforms with rails in proper spacing for vanilla F4 distance, road where road is and strings of connections to both sides would be doable. OG vanilla one does not look too great and it´s road in the middle is not great

Its a compromise beetwen realistic and usefull. My goal was to make something that player could make most of as vanila and modded cargo stations have too little or oddly placed connections. On the other hand you often see cargo beeing loaded directly onto railcar without any platforms so it fits. Maybe in the future i will make something more refined as this cargo station was made in a rush for my republic.

You have an unloading platform in between rails, but connections from the other side of the rails. How does that make any sense?

I swear, you read my mind. A few weeks ago, I tried to rip the files for the vanilla small rail cargo station, because I thought it would be fairly simple to add a couple extra connections. I gave up when I couldn't find all of them :/ Many thanks for this!
