I don't speak german, so i have to ask in english.Is there any key or command to uncouple a locomotive from the rest of the wagons.

BahnLand Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hello,I don't know, whether you can read German articles from this forum.Supposing, that you can, I want to refer to this article, where I have described how an uncoupling track can be created by editing the properties of a double-slip switch with the "track editor" of the 3D Train studio. Furthermore, you can find the 2 demo railroad layouts "Demo mit 1 Entkupplungsgleis" and "Demo mit 2 Entkupplungsgleisen" within the category "experimentelle Anlagen" (experimental layouts) of the online catalog, where the uncoupling track is integrated and managed by the event handling feature. These railway layouts are also described here.Many greetingsBahnLand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt84328 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 what RailroadLand (BahnLand) is trying to say is that there is a way to take a Double Switch and edit the settings so that it looks like a single straight piece of track. when the train is stopped with the center of this special switch directly between two cars, you can then flip this switch (Via event) and disconnect the cars.

Curt84328 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Let's continue. select a nice double switch (or double slip) and we will edit itsee the word edit circled. That starts the Track Editor.This is the Track editor. In the box area are the default settings for this switch. We will change them as follows:1, Spur 1 length1 should be a nice even number (Say 20)2. Spur 2 length1 should be the same3 Spur 3 and 4 should be exactly half of 1 (10)4 Radius for 3 and 4 should be very small (say 0.01)5 set the angle for 3 and 4 to 306 set the cross angle to 180now the track looks like a straight track, but is in fact a special switchpositions 1 and 2 will uncouple, 3 and 4 will allow train to pass through.
