Description:

Hello all togther !

Important Nodes

AN is crucial for this road to work !
in order to get the Cims on to the elvtd platforms,
you need to use the ground -end of the pedestrian pathway!
how it works, as well as a link to the pathways can be found down below

added missing single – track – support
fixed some issues
now with modified version of Vanilla Rails ! (see Pic below)
changed some meshes
there is addtional information in the general AN guide down below regarding updates of this network

I REUSED a lot of textues !
the pack contains grd / elevated station tracks
there are 34 base combinations!! available [17 ground /17 elevated]
every explanation down below counts for both elevations
the station tracks work with the Reversible Tram AI Mod by Sway
various prop customisation options etc.

Overview of Segment- / Node- and Segment END- Options"

this is how it looks, when you build the tracks.
[In order to avoid confusion, I kept parts of the mesh visible]

… to activate a station/stop, you have to avtivate the AN Segment Flag(s) "LRT -Stop", plus the
wanted station/stop: "Stop #01" etc.

… to then change the activated station/stop, you have to use the AN Segment End Flags

… the platforms are build with "closed" ends. (basically with a concrete wall)

… in order to remove and/or change them, you have to use the AN Segment END Flags

… the "low wall" version, only in combination with the dome, extends the side/edge wall to the
platform end. On the base or "coverless" versions, these are just "low" concrete walls.

… the bridge version of the road (probably Fine Road tools needed to be activated/forced)
contains a walkway, which can be activated via AN Segment Flags

there are also different fence versions available

In order to connect this walkway to your elevated stop, you have to activate the walkway
node manually via the AN Node Flags

there are also some "issues"

in order to connect the bridge version to another road on ground, the walkway
has to be activated

these connections look bad, because the LRTs were my first network and
I did something wrong regarding the roads width. I havent corrected that, because
I didnt want to possible "destroy" what users did build with these tracks.
Therefore you have to live with this bad connection.

… if you use a nodeless connection to the tracks, you can manually deactivate
the end poles

AN – Node Options (Examples)

there are certain options to customize the platform ends (entries etc.), especially
if you want to use this as a terminus/end station via the help of the
reversible Tram AI Mod by sway

HOW YOUR CIMS CAN ENTER THE ELEVATED PLATFORMS

build your pedestrian pathway from the ground up

… and then move the ground node to the platform ends, via Move It by Quboid

… this will work with every pedestrian pathway, but I suggest the usage of my new
pdestrian pathway, because I´ve created them especially to be used with these stations

… they dont raise the ground along with them and do have the same design as these
stations here. Link below ! 😉

Adaptive Networks Mod
Simple Fluorescent Light Pack by Rollermine Coaster
in order to work, these lights need the Custom Effect Loader by boformer
my LRT Props Pack (contains the Poles, Buffer etc.)

The Station Tracks will work without the lights or the CEL Mod, BUT the Adaptive Networks
is absolutely needed! Without it, these tracks are just a "mesh mess" 😛
