About Slower train acceleration
From Factorio Mod PortalReduces breaking force and acceleration of all locomotives, even if modded
Do you also think trains are too fast? This mod adds 5 config options to alter the acceleration and maximum speed for trains. By default, trains are a lot more heavy.
This should affect any locomotive or wagon added by mods.
Configuration:
- Locomotive Weight multiplier: Multiplier for the weight of Locomotives. More means heavier, thus slower acceleration and longer braking distances. Default: 10
- Wagon Weight multiplier: Multiplier for the weight of wagons. More means heavier, thus slower acceleration and longer braking distances. Default: 10
- Max speed multiplier: Multiplier for the maximum speed for trains. Default: 0.8
- Braking Force Multiplier: Multiplier for the braking force for trains. Higher means shorter braking distances. Default: 1
- Friction Force Multiplier: Multiplier for a constant acceleration and braking reduction. Default: 15
- Air Resistance Multiplier: Slows down trains exponentially. Only applies to the head of the train, thus shorter trains are worse than longer trains. Default: 5
