Train Simulator - Linking railroad cars together
by Mary Westmacott · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 10/17/2007 (1:33 pm) · 0 replies
I've been putting alot of thought into how to implement a railroad simulation in TGEA and I've hit a roadblock.
I can't figure out how to actually connect two vehicles together so that one pulls the other. I would like to have the ability to couple and uncouple cars to the train.
The only solution I can come up with is creating a whole new type of node for connecting vehicles together.
Am I making this too complicated? Has anyone tried something like this with the existing engine?
Does anyone know of a mechanism already in the engine for doing this kind of thing?
Thanks
