If it is not possible to set the station at 24m, use the unlock path of the network multi-tool to unlock it and lock it after setting the station. Please write an announcement description

Would be amazing if it didn't take hours of anarchy to connect one track

ok then... this is sad to have this problem.... thanks for making this prob tho.

Nice looking, but broken station.
manphibian 10 Jun, 2022 @ 1:19am 
Damn that's too bad, it's a very nice looking station. Thanks for the reply

There is nothing I can do about it. It is a problem with the game.
manphibian 9 Jun, 2022 @ 4:36pm 
As Genki and I'm sure others have previously said, this station will only let you use one side of each metro platform (probably also true of trains but I didn't test). Using Advanced Station Selection can help you find the elusive spot where the second add stop prompt shows up on the other side, but your trains can't find any paths to or from it. Still works like a single metro station with a more divided pair of stops, but a fix for full functionality would be nice. Also had the tunnel problem but re-placing it fixed that.

Its impossible to connect any lines without the game throwing in a tunnel entry which is a pity as its a beautiful asset
13.0 MVP 29 Dec, 2021 @ 8:44am 
it is not working, the metro statin cannot add line like normal like i can only add it to one way not the other.

@Terminal Frost it is probably not this mod, I have had this problem with other stations including vanilla stations It is rare though, its not the tracks you are building thats the problem, its the station tracks, for some reason when you place a satation sometimes the game will think the station track is above ground, you can see when you go to add the tracks in it doesnt show a depth which means the station tracks are at ground level not underground, even tho its actually underground, usually deleting the station and rebuilding it will fix the problem, maybe hard to fix seeing as it has 4 tracks, I think the problem came from an update and it casued a bug between the game and a mod that affects trains and metro.
Nickayz  [author] 26 Apr, 2021 @ 9:55am 
@Terminal Frost: I have another idea. You can download the mod Map Editor Tunnels Enabler: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=645390478 It also helps connecting tunnels with underground train stations.
Árion 21 Apr, 2021 @ 10:33pm 
Thank you for this asset! It is beautiful and very useful, but it has been difficult placing the stops.
Nickayz  [author] 13 Apr, 2021 @ 11:59am 
You can try disabling those mods.Does it happen everywhere on the map or only at this specific place?
It could be a train related Mod or maybe MOM. What changes did you make for your new city?
Terminal Frost 13 Apr, 2021 @ 11:51am 
The ground is completely flat (level-graded for a large, custom airport). Are we sure that it isn't Fine Road Anarchy or Fine Road Tool 2 causing this weirdness?
Nickayz  [author] 6 Apr, 2021 @ 2:51am 
Is the ground completely even? Otherwise I don't know.
Terminal Frost 5 Apr, 2021 @ 8:31pm 
New map, new city. I have used this asset before and *LOVE* it. Zero problems before now. However, now whenever I connect a train track to this station it renders as a tunnel entrance with cliff sides all around (including up against the station platform). I have both Fine Road Anarchy and Fine Road Tool 2 installed. Have tried forcing it into the tunnel/underground state instead of "Normal" and have tried with Smooth Slope on and with it off. Still encountering the same problem regardless of what I do. Any ideas? And yes, I can hide some of it by using Anarchy and putting a building or road over it, but it does *not* look good, like at all...

Omg so beautiful and useful :steamhappy:
isaacwang22 1 Nov, 2020 @ 1:08am 
I figure it out. The update is more reasonable. The old version can clash with other buildings without indication of "space already occupied". So, I can built the hub really close to other buildings. This means now I need more space between the hub and other buildings.Thank you very much for your help.

Nickayz  [author] 1 Nov, 2020 @ 1:34am 
Sure, I can do that later.
Can you post a screenshot please of the "metro track go up to the ground" ? I don't know exactly what you mean 😅
isaacwang22 1 Nov, 2020 @ 1:24am 
After test, metro is o.k. with very strange solution. I have to let the metro track go up to the ground then it works. Is it possible that you can upload the old version for sunset harbor DLC?The old one is much better :) . My city now is paralyzed without this hub.
Nickayz  [author] 1 Nov, 2020 @ 12:29am 
Did you try connecting in with the metro station, not the train station?
isaacwang22 31 Oct, 2020 @ 11:17pm 
Hi, Nickayz

after update and rebuilding, it seems I only got train track, no metro can be connected
Nickayz  [author] 31 Oct, 2020 @ 10:28am 
Better check first, if it works :D
Peregrinus.Ether 31 Oct, 2020 @ 10:08am 
Thanks a lot for update!
Nickayz  [author] 31 Oct, 2020 @ 10:07am 
UPDATE 31.10.2020
I had to remade the whole file to fix some issues. And I also removed the Sunset Harbor DLC dependancy. You can now find it in the "Train category". This also means that you must rebuild it in game. Sorry about that.
Nickayz  [author] 15 Oct, 2020 @ 12:49pm 
Hi tlcooper93. Thanks for the feedback. I do indeed have an idea. It's probably a bug with the invisible pedestrian connections. I can deal with it over the weekend.
one0fnine 15 Oct, 2020 @ 8:21am 
Nice hub.
With all three of these hubs, along with the NTE Falcon metro train hub, I’ve managed to find a way to connect train tunnels in Sunset Harbor.

However, all four of these hubs have a major issue: they aren’t accessible to roads. The only way to enter or leave is via subway/train, which is problematic for intercity trains/terminating lines.

Any ideas?
Otaner 24 Jul, 2020 @ 12:56pm 
@Nickayz
1. sure thing man, I have a few more in my screenshot gallery , Its so cool!

2. the way I placed the roads leaves only 1 placement available (turning off anarchy)

3. well ULOD has a few settings with many options to play with
Nickayz  [author] 24 Jul, 2020 @ 12:31pm 
Thanks for your contribution!
1. Your screenshots are amazing! I can only dream about 4k.. Would you mind, if I upload them to the description?
2. Your idea of the fix is interesting. Thanks for sharing! I guess, it can get difficult to replace the station at the exact same spot sometimes. Export/import with MoveIt! could probably help. I will play around with that.
3. ULOD is indeed a good idea. Probably only for a machine that runs 4k without problems..

@Devolvy @Nickayz I think I found the fix, it worked for me:

1. Place station

2. Connect tracks to it using Road Anarchy's forced tunnel (will terraform)

3. Use Touch This! on all station tracks to modify them

4. Upgrade station tracks using forced tunnel (terraform will be gone, but no stops can be assigned, train/metro just go through it)

5. Remove Station

6. Replace station in the Exact same place :steamhappy:

I had lines going thru it, my train got reconnected, not my metro, all I did was remove the last track node and reconnect it. Pics already fixed:

Hope it works for you guys, {LINK REMOVED} and It is a real life station! Thanks for sharing Nickayz, love your workshop mods, keep it up! :steamhappy:

The LOD is a little wonky. If you zoom out even a little, the spires are just gone and it looks like a shell.
Nickayz  [author] 6 Jul, 2020 @ 9:38am 
Hi. Thanks for your feedback. The problem is, that the game is not officially programmed for underground train stations. They are only added by the Extra Train Station Tracks ( ETST ) mod. So it comes with disadvantages. I haven't found a solution for that yet. The only thing that helps, is using the MoveIt mod to place a building above the strange shape to hide it.
Devolvy 4 Jul, 2020 @ 11:52pm 
I have ETST enabled and I tried connecting the train tracks like you described but it still does the weird terrain transformation. What could be the problem?
snowflitzer 30 May, 2020 @ 7:02am 
yep I know :) looks better :)
Nickayz  [author] 30 May, 2020 @ 6:52am 
Liège-Guillemins? But that one doesn't have a metro station ;o
snowflitzer 29 May, 2020 @ 7:02pm 
Thank you for your answer. I decided to use your latest station :)
Nickayz  [author] 29 May, 2020 @ 4:05am 
Thanks snowflitzer! There is nothing I can do about that. That is the regular game behaviour. There is no official visualization of underground train stations implemented in the game. It's the same with vanilla roads or highways. These aren't rendered either.
For roads there is the Network Extensions 2 mod (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=812125426) that renders tunnels.
For metro stations, there is the Metro Overhaul Mod (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=816260433) that adds that function to the game.
Unfortunately there is nothing similiar for train stations.
snowflitzer 29 May, 2020 @ 2:25am 
I very much like these 3 similar assets.
I did have them connected and they work, they just fail in the way when you want to take a ride in the train or metro and you see just blank or transparent?

Otherwise I would love it
Nickayz  [author] 9 May, 2020 @ 8:52am 
@Alger P
Because metro stations were updated with the patch 1.13, not with the Sunset Harbor DLC. The patch is required to install Sunset Harbor. Sunset Harbor only gives additional content like new transportation hubs and the fishing industry.
I made this hub out of the template from the Sunset Harbor DLC so it fits nice into the new hub-category.
I could theoretically make a version for the vanilla game without the DLC, if I find time.

@Sp3ctre18
Hi :D
Alger P 9 May, 2020 @ 8:21am 
Why does this require SH DLC when the metro-only version doesn't?
Sp3ctre18 7 May, 2020 @ 7:40am 
I mean too white. :steammocking: Sorry I haven't tried it myself yet, but I'm just saying, in the picture it looks almost a pure white that looks unrealistic. BUT, Luckily, I decided too google it. LOL it really IS that white in real life??? Gosh.... never mind then, haha. That's unfortunate, because usually when people make assets that look this white, it's a mistake. For people like me who pay attention to an asset's color and texture quality, maybe you should add a picture of the real thing so that we know you're doing it right, lol

Oh hey, you're the invisible train track person. Hallo!
Nickayz  [author] 3 May, 2020 @ 2:58am 
@jurgenschaub
Sorry to hear that. I don't know why, but I guess that is, because the game does not officially support underground station track. It can happen with sunken stations, too, by the way.
You can try using the terraform tool to make the ground completely even.
Actually I have the problem, too quite often. Sometimes there is a ditch, sometimes there isn't. The stations in my city have it too and I can't get rid of it. Best thing to do is placing a building over it with MoveIt or RICO mod to hide it.

@Sp3ctre18
What do you mean too white?

@DrivingABus
Glad, you like it :)
jurgenschaub 3 May, 2020 @ 1:10am 
I'm having all kinds of trouble connecting the trains, even when using your hint of a very short tunnel first. It always creates a ditch where the train tracks go through. I've got Precision, ETST, and Advanced Stop Selection. The metro tracks connected just fine, but no matter what I do, the train tracks create ditches in the map. Do you know why this is happening, and do you have any other hints?
vandiris 30 Apr, 2020 @ 8:57am 
why is it too white huh Sp3ctre?
Sp3ctre18 29 Apr, 2020 @ 6:09pm 
Is it a softer white than in the picture? Looks like it may be too white.
