[edit] KIND: MOSIGNAL

[edit] Description

A train signal with lights (coronas). It specifies the aspects the signal is capable of displaying, the light points activated when each state is displayed, and the corona details. The signal may be offset a specified distance from the track.


[edit] Container Structure

A well formed mosignal kind has the following container structure:

See Chapter 7 for an example asset of this kind.

A TYPICAL ASSET OF THIS KIND MAY HAVE THE FOLLOWING TAGS:

[edit] TAGS AND CONTAINERS

The following tags are further defined in Chapter 5:

kuid

trainz-build
Automatically set to 2.9 for 2009 assets.
category-class
Should be "WX" - Accessories. See the "Wayside" section of Category Class.
category-region
See Category Region for a list of valid category-region values.
category-era
See Category Era for a list of valid category-era values.
username
Asset username. This will be the name that appears in the surveyor menu.
trackside
This is a value that is the distance in meters the object is placed relative to the center of the track. Negative values will put the object on the left side of the track, and positive values will appear on the right.
kind
Must be "mosignal".


mesh-table
Default - Contains the default mesh. Auto-create should be set to true in order to make the mesh visible.


[edit] Additional Containers

As well as containing all of the common tags and containers detailed in Chapter 5 , the mosignal kind also contains additional containers and tags that are specialised to the requirements of the kind.


[edit] Signal Container

When adding a signal, the user is presented with a choice of 12 separate signal containers:

Signal 1, Signal 2, Signal 3, Signal 4, Signal 5, Signal 6,Signal 7, Signal 8, Signal 9, Signal 10, Signal 11, Signal 12

The numbering of these is meaningful in that each numeric is assigned to a particular signalling state. The states are as follows:

0 STOP
1 STOP THEN PROCEED
2 CAUTION AND LEFT DIVERGE
3 CAUTION AND RIGHT DIVERGE
4 CAUTION
5 PROCEED AND LEFT DIVERGE
6 PROCEED AND RIGHT DIVERGE
7 ADVANCED CAUTION
8 PROCEED

The following two aspects are only used for scenarios....

9 SLOW
10 MEDIUM SPEED
light

Sets lighting to be used for object to be ambient or directional. 0 sets ambient lighting and object is lit by general light value, (uniformly lit). 1 sets directional light which is affected by the position of the sun, and the asset shows shaded faces, but not ground shadows.


[edit] Lights Container

Each light point needs to have a corona associated with it. Coronas are stored in each signal object's directory alongside it's textures.

corona
A corona is a `glow' light effect.


[edit] Additional Tags

function
Must be set to TrackSignal.
