Railways Untold FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start using Railways Untold after installing it?
The mod automatically spawns a starting train at your spawn point and begins generating tracks outward from there. You can board the train immediately or configure the mod's settings if you want to customize which features are active before tracks start generating.
Can I stop tracks from going in a certain direction?
Yes, use the track prevention blocks to mark areas where you don't want tracks to generate. Place these blocks to create boundaries, and the track generation will route around them.
Do the tracks automatically connect to villages?
Yes, the mod detects villages and builds tracks directly to them, then constructs a complete train station with a randomly generated name at each village. You can customize station designs if you want something different than the default.
How do I make my own train routes between specific locations?
Use the custom route blocks to define start and end points, and the mod will build tracks connecting them. This lets you create specific paths independent of the endless generation system.
Will this mod lag my world?
Generating infinite tracks can impact performance depending on your hardware and world size. You can disable specific features like tunnel digging or village connections in the configuration to reduce load.
Can I use my own custom train designs instead of the default one?
Yes, the mod supports custom trains and station designs. You'll need to set these up in your configuration or through the mod's customization options.
What happens if tracks try to go into the ocean or a deep ravine?
The mod follows the terrain and will build bridges or tunnels as needed to maintain the track network. You can use prevention blocks if you want to avoid certain terrain features entirely.
Can I turn off the endless track generation but keep villages connected?
Yes, the mod's configuration menu lets you enable or disable individual features independently, so you can have village connections without infinite generation if you prefer.
Do I need the Create mod installed for this to work?
Yes, Railways Untold generates tracks specifically for the Create mod's train system, so Create must be installed as a dependency.
How do I remove or modify tracks that have already been generated?
You can break and replace track blocks manually like any other block. For large-scale changes, consider using prevention blocks to stop new generation in an area, then clear the old tracks yourself.
