Train Parts Bogies

*******************************************************************************************************************
Since the train era in Medieval Engineer begun, many compromises had to be made in our designs due to lack of apropriate train parts: wooden wheels, sconces in place of headlights, etc. This is why Xaerthus' Rail & Air Industries' invested heavily in a brand new development branch, where highly skilled engineers work day and night on bringing you custom parts, carefully adjusted for your best railroad experience.

This mod adds 36 different variations of bogies working identically to the original Rail Mod ones and keeping trains on track. They consist only of axles to make them as universal as possible and allow for custom decoration, both with vanilla blocks and dedicated suspension blocks (that will be added in the future). There are following types present in both standard and narrow gauges and in spoked and full wheels variants:
- Bogie Single - 1 axle bogie with the axle directly under the mounting point. Works like a free rotating, floating rail guide so its ideal for making 2 axle cars.
- Bogies Single 1-5 - 1 axle bogies with the mount points offset from the axle. Ideal for making leading and trailing trucks of locomotives
-Bogies Double 1-5 - 2 axle bogies with different axle positioning.
Additionally matching decorational frames have been added for all the sizes of 2 axled bogies.

*******************************************************************************************************************
Usage hints:
- The bogies might be a little hard to use in the beginning due to a lack of correct placement indication. Both standard and narrow gauge bogies have mounting points in the middle. In case of confusion, please use the Shift F12 and Draw Physics function.
- The usage and behavior is exactly the same as with the normal bogies as well as the height of the mounting points. They are completely interchangeable without any need of rebuilding suspensions, etc.
