Nice, im relaxed and enjoyed the travel. 

Will this be a part of Outerra in the future?

[fly77]

I'm glad you enjoyed the virtual trip. "Will this be part of outerra in the future?" I don't know the developer's intentions but I know that we can ourselfs place rails, bridges, create train mods, railway stations etc..even tunnels can already be placed manually in the scenery editor...so we can create our "tiny railroad system" wherever we like in the world and share them among us to connect each others railway systems together. Also I will myself try to figure out how to import some raildata from OSM or other open data sources or build myself a "railroad-track laying robot"

Thanks aWac9. Once my train mod is complete and working reliably and I will have published it I am sure you'll want to build your own personal railroad system connecting your airports to the nearest cities.

I imagine that inserting train tracks is very similar to inserting roads .. and the slopes will be the same flat, upper (bridge) or lower (tunnel)

hmm for now its just like placing each rail like you place a house and level terrain under the rail...you can also set the rail pitch in the editor ..as well as heading precisely ...needed to make curves and to lay rails uphill or downhill....but I think in the future we may have a "rail-tool"  working in a similar way to the "road-tool" ...at least this is what I hope...meanwhile I'll try to figure out if I can create a "railway laying robot"

Today lets ride the Night train    (sorry for the modest audio quality..audacity played me tricks while recording)

good funny, . If the train broke when it fell, we could ask Cameni to lend us hers ...

What about  fish in outerra ? 

 

[aWac9]

well done Fly .. a good start ... but it's a weird fish .. what fish is that?

[fly77]

Thanks! Its a bamboo shark. I just took since it was a free model. I scaled it too much ...normally bamboo shark seem to be small fish. Also I converted the video with the wrong screensize so the fish looks fatter than he really is. ...kind of prehistoric fish.  ..this is just the start. All life on earth started in the sea....and so will life in outerra !

what about "night ufo mode" ??  (torch "attached" to ufo mode camera)   

[aWac9]

I see it very useful ... but not only with the UFO camera, but as a flashlight, to statically see the mig clocks without the need to turn on lights ... I like it

[fly77]

about glider ridge soaring...coming soon

[aWac9]

Even if I do not have a license for gliding ,,, I will fly it .. we will be attentive
