MTR Quick Getting Started (Part 1) -The theoretical knowledge [MTR] My World Railway

This tutorial is set by the author to use the CC By-NC-SA protocol.

Before the tutorial

The purpose of writing this tutorial

If you can use all kinds of items of MTR freely, then this article is nonsense for you, and you can go to other tutorials.

There are some very, very basic things in MTR. These things are necessary for the construction of the subway, but some tutorials will not mention (including some machine settings and unit conversion of GT6).

These knowledge is generally recommended to explore itself to fully grasp; but if you need to invest quickly, you can look at this tutorial, quickly pass these foundations, and deepen your understanding through practical practice.

This tutorial is theoretical knowledge, and the actual example application tutorial will write another article.

Module installation and configuration

Module version selection

1.12.2 This module has stopped and has poor compatibility. It is basically not recommended to choose (it is difficult for you to download it).

In the high version, there are differences in different versions, but the content is generally the same.You can choose from other modules you want to play

(Recommended 1.18.2 and 1.19.4).

This tutorial is written in 1.18.2. If there are different versions of the content differences, please be corrected in the comment area.

Affiliated choice

There are three main affiliated MTRs: jobanclient, MSD and NTE.

The Jobanclient module provides more station blocks, especially information displays and shooting lights, which can facilitate the construction of the station.

NTE provides a variety of three -dimensional track models that make your track look no longer a monotonous line.

MSD provides contact network. If you want to build a line with contact network, you can choose (but not compatible with the latest 1.18.2mtr).

Choice of additional package

You may be tired of the original MTR's original train, information sign and logo, then you can choose the rich and diverse additional bags of community production.

Adding packages can be downloaded in MTRBBS.

The installation method of additional packages is the same as the general resource package.

Please ask the license agreement used by the additional package author to avoid the opponent's train model in public content and cause disputes (such as the Shanghai Metro Payment additional package).

Choice of other modules

If you want to build a railway system in the original terrain instead of the super flat, or build a railway system with a certain scale, be sure to install the WorldEdit Creation God Model, which can shorten your construction time to about one in about one fifty -fifth of the original.Intersection

For other decorative modules, the more recommended ones are:

Create mechanical power, Quark Quark, Domumornamentum.

MTR's setting and underlying logic of railway system

rail

The MTR track is virtual, creating the track by connected between the two rail nodes by using the rail creator.

This orbit is not available and cannot be placed directly/destroyed (removing the use of orbital removal).

The advantages of this form: can directly operate the entire track;

Disadvantages: It is difficult to make subtle adjustments to a long orbit.

train

MTR trains are physical as most mainstream rail modules, but the train is founded by the side line (that is, the car manufacturer), and it cannot be drove by default (the driving mode needs to be turned on).

Cold Knowledge: The earliest MTR train needs to be placed on the track in the form of items.

station

The MTR station is drawn on the map with a railway dashboard (the meeting will be said later). You can adjust the name and range of the station at any time.

Car factory

Also known as the vehicle section/garage, it is the parking point of the train on the route.Without a car factory, a line will not be able to run the vehicle on it.

The car manufacturer is usually set up after a line at a section, and is directly connected to the line.The car manufacturer can also be at the end of the station, but this requires special setting in and out of the warehouse.

A car factory can be used for multiple lines at the same time.

Railway instrument board

The core item of the MTR module (it is important to talk about it with a whole chapter).

View railway system status

Right -click the railway instrument panel item to open the railway dashboard interface.On the right side of the interface, you can see a brief map (yes, the MTR module has built -in small maps), and use different color blocks to identify all stations and car factories in the server archive.

Positioning, constituencies, settings and deletion of station and car manufacturers

On the left side of the interface, the stations in the current map are arranged in a list.Move the cursor to a station, you can see four buttons.The second from left to right is:

position

As the name suggests.After clicking the button, the right map is immediately positioned to the station/car factory and displayed in the best proportion.

Election area

After clicking the button, you can re -election the station/car manufacturer.Use the left mouse button to draw a rectangle on the small map, and click the determination of the lower left corner of the interface to select the new range of the station/car factory.

set up

Modify the configurations of the station/car factory.

station

The options available are: station name, entrance and exit, station color.

The station name can be tight directly to the modification;

The entrance and exit must be input in the form of letters+numbers, but when used in actual use, you can use only letters, but not only numbers; the color of the station is RGB, but it is not allowed (0, 0, 0). Once you typeEssence

Car factory

The options available are: car manufacturers, timetables, car factory colors, line instructions and refresh routes.

The name of the car factory can be tight directly to the modification;

The timetable is divided into game time and real time. It is recommended to use real time (convenient setting for a few minutes).There are examples of the format of setting the real time in the input box below; the recommended frequency is about 4 to 5 minutes, about 4 to 5 minutes.

The color settings of the color of the car factory are the same as the station;

The line instructions can add the car factory connection line, be sure to add only the line that is directly connected to the car manufacturer;

Refresh the line, as the name suggests, but be careful not to click to refresh at will. If the lines of others are building a new part, refresh may cause it to run.

delete

As the name suggests, but carefully execute this operation!

Add or decrease stations, settings and deletion of the line

Move the cursor to a line, you can see three buttons.The second from left to right is:

Increase or decrease station

Move the map to the position of the station, open the increase or decrease station option, and click the small white block (that is, the platform) in the station to add to the line.Please distinguish the upstream platform!Otherwise, it may cause problems such as the train to stop.

Just reduce the delete button on the right side of the station list on the station list.

set up

The options available are: line name, whether to report to the station, whether to circulate and line numbers.

The format of the line name is: "X Line || to XXX".Two of these vertical lines ("|") can replace the space, but the subsequent content is only displayed in the railway dashboard, and only the previous content is displayed in the station;

Do you need to modify whether to report to the station;

Whether to circulate as the name implies;

The line number only needs to be filled in the digital line, and the non -digital line does not need to be filled.

delete

As the name suggests, but carefully execute this operation!

View the operation of the generator

In the main interface of the instrument board, the "operation ..." in the lower right corner of the left button can be seen to see the operational generator (bridge, tunnel, tunnel wall) operation.The operation cannot be adjusted, and it can only be deleted.

The explanation and application of the division of the rail system

Rail node

Right -clicking the orbital node is placed in a total of 8 directions. The direction depends on the direction of the player when placing.

Right -click a node with a rail creation device. When a green arrow appears on the connector, right -click another node to generate a track between the two nodes.

When a node connected to the track is destroyed, the connected orbit will automatically disappear after about 5s.

Use of brush

Hold the brush, and you can see the basic information (length, turning radius, slope) of the track at the track node (in the absence of the orbit).

Holding a brush, Shift right -click track node, you can adjust the rail model and vertical curve radius (can be applied in batches).

The diameter of the vertical curve is generally recommended not to modify it if it is not necessary.

Rail creation device

There are 5 kinds of rails: ordinary rails, one -way orbits, platform tracks, head -to -orbit, and side lines.

Ordinary orbit

Ordinary orbit allows the train to drive two -way driving. The material is made from wood to diamonds, from 20km/h to 300km/h.

It is recommended not to use the track that is too slow or too fast, otherwise it may cause your game experience to be poor or server/archive BOOM!

One -way orbital

The speed and material are the same as ordinary orbit, but they can only drive unidirectional.For example, using one -way rail creator first click to click A node, and then click B point B, then the train can only drive from node A from node A.

Advantages of one -way orbit: Prevent train retrograde.

Disadvantages: If the direction is wrong, it is extremely troublesome to find the unable to create a path.

Platform track

For red.Used at the station and speak in the station one section.Generally, the slope and curvature are 0 and parallel to the coordinate shaft (it can also be 45 degrees or curves, but it is troublesome).

Turn on

For blue.As the name suggests.

Side line

It is yellow and there is no pillow.Speaking in a section of the car factory.

Rail removal

Right -click the two nodes to remove the orbit in their middle, regardless of direction and quantity.

Generator

It is divided into three types: bridge generator, tunnel generator, and tunnel wall generator.

Use

Sneak first and right -click to select the material (for bridges and tunnel walls), and then right -click two rail nodes to create in turn.

Use order

Bridge-> Tunnel Wall-> Tunnel.Reason: If the bridge is not used first, it will cause a niche on the wall. If the tunnel is not finally used, it will cause the drops of the drop in the tunnel.

Other matters

The archive/server can only perform one generator operation at one time. If your generator operation is not executed immediately after the operation is created, it must be that other operations are being executed.

Part of the station system explanation

The single -line station system is divided into platforms, station halls and entrances. The platforms and entrances are necessary.

Platform

For passengers waiting, get on and off.

MTR's platform consists of two elements, which is indispensable: platform track, platform block.After paving the platform track, the platform and blocks need to be placed in a row of the positions across the side of the platform, otherwise it will cause the orbit/train mold.The purpose of the platform track is to allow the train to park (when the station exists), and the platform block allows the train to open the door (when there is a platform track on the side).It is worth mentioning that the length of the platform block does not need to be as long as the platform orbital, and it does not have to be close to the platform track.

Station hall

For the settings of the gate, the interoperability between the platform (if it is a side platform) and the interoperability between the lines (if it is a multi -line station).

Entrance

For passengers to the ground from the station.

It is generally recommended to have two or more.

For the entrances and exits of the underground station, it takes a lot of time to dig directly. It is generally recommended to build a cross -section of the entrance, then copy it, walk to the stairs, and then paste it, so that it will be pushed until it reaches the ground.

Division of station facilities

Platform block

Core block of a station.Stand on the outside of the orbit of the platform when placing, so that the yellow line of the platform block is facing outward.

When the platform block is placed, placed across the side of the orbit node to avoid the track and the train model.

When the train stops on the platform track, the door will open when there is a platform block on the side of the door.

It can be placed separately, but it is recommended to match the shielding door.

Shielded door

Divided into full high shielding doors and half -high shielding doors.It is generally recommended to use a full -high shielding door at underground stations, and it doesn't matter.

The shielded door must be placed on the platform and the square, and it must be placed on the outside of the track and placed in the orbit.

The shielded door is divided into three parts: glass, door and glass edges.The position of the door must be aligned with the door of the door when the train stops, and the remaining part (train window) is placed.The edge of the glass is used on both sides of the platform and can be used.

Full high shield door

There are two parts when placing: the door of the high 2 grid and the closing plate of the height above the top.When the platform is located in the line, the line information will be displayed on the hanging board.

There are two forms in total: one part of the door has patterns, and the other is not.

Half -high shield

When placing, there is only one and a half height door, which does not contain a suspension plate.When the platform where the shielding door is located is located in the line, the line information is displayed on the above half of the glass (when the shield door glass is placed in two or more, and the brush is merged into a whole piece)

There are two forms: one is the original form of MTR, and the other is the MTR Disney line (located in the Jobanclient).

Shield door

Due to the additional bags you use, you need to experiment by yourself.

Use of brush

Hold the brush and right -click the door in the door to lock the shielding door.Right -click the suspension plate of the full -high shielding door or the information bar on the glass in the glass in the half -high shielding door, which can change the display direction to match the line.

The use of scissors (yes, you didn't read it wrong)

Hold the scissors and right -click the hanging plate of the full high shielding door to separate the hanging board and the door.

Escalator

The escalator in the MTR is created by the escalator block and one section, which is a multi -square structure.

Place the escalator block from bottom to top, and you can see the running elevator pedal in the middle of each elevator block.

The two ends of the escalator need to be placed one more block to prevent the mold.

The escalator that can be settled, or a 45 -degree escalator, or a combination of the two.

Use of brush

Hold the brush, right -click to modify the direction of the elevator, or stop the elevator operation.

Glass guardrail

Similar to the fence, the height is one and a half, players cannot jump over.

It is usually used for isolation paid areas and non -paid areas, and can also be used to isolate stations and outside spaces.

Gates

There are two forms: ordinary gates (in MTR) and Thales gate (in Jobanclient).The two only have different appearances and their functions are exactly the same.

Players do not charge for the gate gate; if they have entered the gate, they will be deducted by 1 yuan when they get out of the gate;

Please be distinguished into the gate gate and outlet gate!(The bottom material of the entrance gate is orange, and the station is green).

Standing name

There are many forms: such as no background text type, single/double -sided column type, in -out -and -mouth shape, etc.

The placement methods and uses are different, but the common characteristics are: the above station name can be seen only in the corresponding station area.

Use of brush

Use a brush to right -click some station brand names, you can adjust the color of the text to black/white (the station name is not clear).

Schedule

Used to display the number of vehicle information.The timetable cannot be placed too high from the platform.At that time, when the table was directly hung on the ceiling, the time information was not displayed. It is recommended to use the Jobanclient timetable and use it with the timing of the pillar.

Information card (fixed format)

There are 6 different lengths (from 2 to 7), and the number of blocks is divided into 12 forms.Right -click on the ceiling of the information card.

Use of brush

Hold the brush and right -click the information card to change the information card content.The content of the information is very rich and can be freely selected.

Information card (self -determined information)

There are two types of lines, three lines, and four lines.

It is worth mentioning that this stuff can also be used to display vehicles.Use of brush

Hold the brush, right -click the information card to adjust the text displayed (manual key).

Lift ladder

This is the most complicated item in the station facilities.To build a lifting ladder, you need to prepare the following items: brush, elevator track, elevator floor orbit, elevator display, elevator button, elevator door, elevator button connector, elevator updateer.

Dig a elevator well (need to be square, 2x2 and above).

Place the elevator track continuously from top to bottom on the wall of the elevator.

You need to set the height of the floor to replace the elevator track to the elevator floor orbit.

Place the elevator door, elevator display and elevator button on the corresponding floor.There are two forms of elevator doors and displays, one is inward, one is free to choose.

Use the elevator button to connect the connector, and bind the elevator display and the elevator button to the corresponding floor orbit (if the bind is wrong, you can use the elevator button to break the company).

Using an elevator update device for any section of the elevator floor orbit, the elevator model will be generated at the bottom of the elevator.

Enter the elevator and adjust the size, position and direction of the elevator.

Use of brush

Hold the brush, right -click the elevator floor track, you can modify the floor number and description.

Conclusion

At this point, you have basically mastered the basic use of various types of items of MTR.

Before practical practice, you can also take a look at MTR fast entry (below) -the application practice (in writing) to better build the MTR railway system.

Thanks for reading, and thanked the MTR author for providing us with this pretty good railway module.
