Purpose
[edit | edit source]This Appendix index page is a master Table of Contents page for reference material located only here in the Trainz Wikibook Pages. The cloned Official Reference pages with Added details is a separate TOC page.
- If you wish to contribute to clarifying the obtuseness of the N3V wiki, see Trainz/Project for guidelines or to post a question to Talk:Trainz/Project.
- One key expansion we will be having here are Route Tech Manuals, including:
- an author's guide to both historical reasons he invested so much time and effort into the Trainz kind map,
- a Driver's View Guided Tour, and perhaps most importantly;
- a detailed list of places and features about likely, possibly, or historic operations on the map written with the point of view (i.e. thinking in depth) about what sorts of things 'another person' would like to know as well (as he, the Creator, does) for writing a session.
Both the latter guides are to let the most people take advantage of the map, with the most fun. There are several advantages of an online map tech manual:
- Firstly, it's online and available by any communications device with a browser--hence multiple head computers, a nearby laptop or Pad computer or smart phone can access data while in the middle of running Surveyor, or Driver.
- With an external List of Sessions, each can be added to an index listing Sessions on the Route's Map on the DLS without any need for reusing or over using naming terms. When used, this index will support locating sessions for the maps Creator. While newer Trainz releases allow for longer names in menus and there were no limits to those in surveyor, there are even in TANE no way to check dependent assets that may reside on the DLS—especially those put up by a 3rd party, now that we have the trird Windows release with layers.

This References page is 'a reserved article title' linked into by the {{{LINK}}} page, and it is the plan that it will cover a topic which needs elaboration for all Trainzers. The article materials should cover:Page is a split out or spin-off of The reference pages TOC (cover same materials as TrainzOnline, with user adds, clarification and advice), and the intent is to list separately those pages that have parallel topic coverage there, and those unique to the Wikibook or at least much different such pages here. This page was started by copying the other page in its entirety 17 March 2015 and then modified by changes solely in the header and footer templates, before saving. It It was last edited on 10 November 2019, so construction has yet to really begin! Newly minted page UNDERCONSTRUCTION: Content here is likely to be changed significantly in a short amount of time. All Trainzer's and Wikibookians with knowledge in this subject are welcome to help out. You can remove this tag and replace it with {{Trainz-stub}} or with section stub templates ({{Trainz-sect-stub}}) on unfinished sections when the 'page' has become more mature. |
