Enable AI Consists for New York Division Bergen Line Quick Drive

[minerman146]

The first question out of the gate is; is it possible to enable AI consist and AI trains on my workshop route.
In my testing - using "Regional Train" at 100% likelihood, 300m length - no trains appear on my tests for consist nor AI train.
I reviewed Matt P's video on QD creation and various other web sources. including. I am at 6 hours and not making much headway here.

I have never customized train sim before other than to import repaints. If I am missing a folder that will give me AI trains, then that would make sense. I see on NJCL that it spawns AI, what do I need to do to enable that in my QDs? If I could import the NJCL consists for AI, link them in my route, and upload that to steam - that would work very well for me.

*Its worth the effort - however the research and testing is severely cutting in to route build time.

Your assistance is appreciated!

Increase the length to 750 meters. 300 is too short for a lot of trains. Also, you need to have AI consists that are designated to run on the Bergen. That's the monkey wrench for the Workshop because those go in the asset folder, a no-no on the workshop. I'm attaching a sample.

Just drop this in any preload folder and it should appear when you run the AI scenario again

Tom,

The help is really appreciated and I was in a bind. I followed both recommendations. Step one to increase the consist length to 750m was done first, with no effect. In step two, I placed the file in several locations also to no effect.

Having AI consists on the Bergen has been requested by users several times over the years. This was my second 6 hour attempt to get it going.

I await the final word on if AI consists can be generated for workshop routes.
