--trackplacer.lua
--holds code for the track-placing system. the default 'track' item will be a craftitem that places rails as needed. this will neither place or change switches nor place vertical rails.

-- Get current translator
local S = advtrains.translate

--all new trackplacer code
local tp={
	groups={}
}

--[[ New in version 2.5:

The track placer no longer uses hacky nodename pattern matching.
The base criterion for rotating or matching tracks is the common "ndef.advtrains.track_place_group" property.
Only rails where this field is set are considered for replacement. Other rails can still be considered for connection.
Replacement ("bending") of rails can only happen within their respective track place group. Only two-conn rails are allowed in the trackplacer.

The track registration functions register the candidates for any given track_place_group in two separate collections:
- double: tracks that can be used to connect both ends of the rail
- single: tracks that will be used to connect conn1 when only a single end is to be connected

When track placing is requested, the calling code just supplies the track_place_group to be placed.

--    Connect one track end if any rail is near
--    Place the default track if no tracks are near
