^- Getting on by walking in then takes effect.
^- Positive values mean front, negative ones back. Resulting position is automatically shifted to the right side.
+ coupler_types_front = {scharfenberg=true},
+ coupler_types_back = {chain=true},
+ ^- Defines the available coupler types on this wagon on the front and back side. Wagon will only couple to wagons that have a matching coupler. (this property does not have any visual impact)
+ ^- Default: not given (nil) - causes the wagon to couple to any other wagon regardless of coupler type.
+ ^- Empty table ({}): This wagon does not couple to any other wagon (e.g. for Linetrack vehicles)
+ ^- Register coupler types using ''advtrains.register_coupler_type(type, name)''. advtrains defines the default types "chain" (Buffer and Chain) and "scharfenberg" (Scharfenberg coupler).
+
wagon_span=2,
^- How far this wagon extends from its base position. Is the half of the wagon length.
^- Used to determine in which distance the other wagons have to be positioned. Will require tweaking.
+ wheel_positions = {1.5, -1.5},
+ ^- Optional: if defined, the wagon will be placed so that these 2 wheel positions are on the track
+ ^- This parameter is recommended for long wagons (wagon_span >= 2).
+ ^- The position is a distance relative to the center of the wagon.
+ ^- Must have exactly 2 entries, corresponding to the front (1) and rear (2) wheel of the wagon object. 1st must be greater than 2nd.
+ ^- If not provided, the simple 1-position positioning logic will be used (wagon is positioned with the center on the track)
+
extent_h = 1,
^- Determines the collision box extent in x/z direction. Defaults to 1 (=3x3)
^- The actual bounding box size is (extent_h*2)+1, so 0 means 1x1, 1 means 3x3 and 2 means 5x5
