Signal deceiver

Deceive a signal forcing it to give a red light to a safe track.

- the signal deceiver.

How it works: Collisions in Rolling line are made based on the main mesh and the coupelers. The signal deciever has a very big offset for the coupelers and no main mesh. So if used properly it can't be crashed into by other trains (the signal deceiver is a train, not a track addon). However Signals can still see it on the track ahead and they give a red signal even though the track can be traversed because it can't be crashed into.
One more note on the crashing, it can be hit. If a train rams the coupeling so make sure the coupeling doesn't hang over any track.

AN APPLICATION for the signal deceiver is track merging. You herd me. track merging! Two tracks combine into one and AI trains can drive over it without crashing. The second image shows how you can make this setup.
to further explain the image. The when the train on the blue track can't see a train on the red track it will drive to the green track. If a train on the red track can't see a train on the green track it will drive forward. The yellow track allows the signal on the blue track to observe the red track. No trains are suposed to drive over the yellow track.

(p.s) if anything goes wrong with track merging with the system I showed, please, don't sue me. I haven't tested it hours on end. Im not NASA.
