Rail Upgrade

Rail Upgrade Mod

Adds various rail-related upgrades/items.

Locomotives

+ Stack size is increased to 20 for every locomotives.

+ Each locomotive has a unique minimap icon for easier identification.

+ ### Light weight locomotives

+ Have same acceleration as original but are lighter. (Hyper-level has slightly higher acceleration)

+ Improved versions need low density structures.

+ Hyper-level needs carbon fiber in space age.

+ More suitable for short-distance transport.

+ Displayed as a green icon on the minimap.

+ ### High-speed locomotives

+ Have higher acceleration, but are heavier.

+ Additional materials are required. Also, improved versions need low density structures.

+ Hyper-level needs tungsten in space age.

+ More suitable for long-distance transport.

+ Displayed as a blue icon on the minimap.

Cargo wagons & fluid wagons

+ Stack size is increased to 40.

+ Lighter variants have less cargo space.

+ Heavier variants have more cargo space.

Advanced rails

+ New railroads requiring tungsten plates and carbon fiber.

+ In exchange for the high cost, production rate is high, and stack size is larger.

+ Removal speed is twice as fast.

+ Good for massive railway production on various planets.

+ Supports elevated rails and can connect to vanilla railroads.

Technologies

+ Light weight locomotive (1~3)

+ High-speed locomotive (1~3)

+ Advanced rail

+ Infinite rail productivity (10% per level)

+ Infinite braking force upgrade (15% per level)

Plans

+ Add recipes for space age

+ Balancing

This is my first factorio mod ever, so it is more like practice for making mods.

Any feedbacks are welcome!
