Automatic Train Control on any EEP Layout with Lua - v2.2 - 8
0Automatic Train Control version 2.2 has the feature of being able to reverse trains without using any track sensors, Lua takes care of the reversal. This makes it possible to reverse a train on any block, not only on dead ends. The block need not even be a two-way block, trains can reverse on any block.
The Lua ATC Code Generator can not guess our intentions, it will always generate routes without reversal, and reverse trains only in dead ends. When we want a train to reverse on a non dead end block we’ll have to add the routes for this ourselves and specify reverse=true for these routes. The video shows how to do this.
