Description
Maglev Rails

Development of this mod is discontinued.

Enhance your game with working rails. Mod by Shaostoul and Draygo.

Contains the following blocks:
Straight 1
Straight 3
Straight 9
Straight 27

3 Small curve blocks
5 Medium curve blocks

1 6x1 Ramp block

1 3x3 Crossing block.

Maglev suspension
Maglev "Wheel"
Maglev LandingGear (can lock to the track) - This is the block that makes it levitate, without it it will not work.

See video above to see how it works!

Protip guide
Place suspension blocks perpendicular to the track you are riding on if you plan to go around curves.
Set the dampening (to about 15%) and strength (to no more than 5%) on the suspension block for a smoother ride.
Use autolocking rails at the end of lines to automatically stop trains.
Super long grids will lag the game! trains can usually clear 1 block gaps no problem so just make a small gap and a new grid for the train to jump on to.

i would love to see this with a higher elevated raise in ramps. because i would love to build a train system in a colony where it raised the track to 45 degrees

Is it working still? I found a guide but very old (2016). When I set up the 'train' it jiggling like jelly and will not move. Klang has found its new toy it seems. The 'wheels' are set up as, with each item below the previous:
>train chassis
>suspension
>landing gear

Am I doing something wrong? I can't see a "dampening" option anywhere but it may have changed name.

People that complain. The curve track work if you make guard rail that copy curved rail shape.
Very old SE update (before warfare1) broke the curved line calculation in script this mod use.
Still neat mod and i build many stuff with it.

Was one kinda, I dont remember name offhand but it did not have cross pieces or real angled parts if i recall.

As for update ya would think once people see its last update around 7 years ago would realize wont be a update.

love the people asking for an update when the description says there wont be one. I have aq similar question, does anyone know an up to date rail mod?

Hello, An update would be great for this mod because the curves no longer work. We go straight and we derail.
