Freight facilities consist of an integrated iron and steel works. Three brick works and tileries with working clay pits. Four iron foundries consuming pig iron, coke and steel scrap and producing castings for removal... and so much more!
Scrapbook is a major upgrade to the old Copy/Paste tools by way of painting, cloning and sharing.
Scrapbooks are a new Asset Type that provide the ability to copy and save a part of your route, then reuse that scene in other routes.
To add new baseboards, simply drag the Marquee off the edge of the existing baseboards, then select Set Marquee to Brush Height. This will create new baseboards at the current brush height.
To delete baseboards, drag over one or more existing baseboard edges then use Context Menu > Delete Baseboards Containing Marquee.
The Marquee Tool is used to create a rectangular selection box. All of the objects within the Selection Area are selected, along with the Ground, any Effect Layers, and the Ground Textures.
Use advanced options and filters to make your selection, then move, rotate, delete and perform many more actions on that selection.
The gizmo is an important new concept in Trainz.
Gizmos can be used to move or rotate the selected objects, splines, terrain, and ground textures in any direction.
Each selected spline segment will display three gizmos - one for each vertex, and a single gizmo for the entire segment.
When an object is selected, it is highlighted, and shows a Contextual Menu icon based upon the Asset Category.
Clicking the Menu Anchor will open the Contextual Menu, which lists a range of additional operations that can be applied to the selection. Different options are offered depending on the active tool and object types selected.
S20 introduces a new system of Palettes that can each be moved, resized, minimised, shown, or hidden, so you can customize the layout of your workspace.
Palettes can provide detailed information about your selected objects, or a set of controls used to edit and manipulate everything within the world.
The Assets Palette lists all the assets available to you to use in the Route you are creating. To quickly narrow down the list of assets, use the preset Category Filters by clicking on any of the Filter icons or select a custom list/picklist.
Advanced functionality helps find objects in your route by using clever filters like "Filter Selection" or "Filter Visibility" on the assets listed.
Asset thumbnails can now be displayed in 3D within the Asset Palette. This provides you with the flexibility to choose between the traditional 2D thumbnails or the option to view each asset with a 3D thumbnail. This enhancement aims to assist you in easily identifying the assets that best suit your needs when creating your route.
And so much more...
The Tools Palette provides a range of powerful tools that can be used to build your Trainz world. No more single tool for a single asset type. Use one tool across multiple assets!
List all route, session and effect layers to have them always in view and to show the current layer you are working in.
The Brush Tool is now multi-purpose and used to painting ground textures, effect layers, scrapbook assets and terrain manipulation. And your brush is now unlimited in size!
Use the Eyedropper Tool to identify Assets in the 3D world, add them to picklists, get the ground height or instantly pick rolling stock, ground textures, scenery assets or splines and start painting or placing more.
No more teeny tiny 3D asset preview window. The new Preview Palette allows you to resize and reposition it to always have a clear 3D preview of the selected asset.
Unlimited brush radius size, instantly see object and compass positions, easily find which layer you're working in or an object belongs to, perform bulk operations on multiple assets types and so much more!

MPS is where you can join forces to build your dream railroad online in real time with others. At any time switch to Driver Mode and drive on the tracks you just built.
MPS creates a whole new dynamic to enjoying Trainz. Join our Discord server and chat online with your friends as you build worlds together. Issue roles when building your railroad, and change roles when you switch to driving mode. The options are endless.
MPS is the first part of our long term plan to create "Trainz Live" - a persistent world where your railroad runs 24-7, just like in the real world.
With the release of TRS22PE, we're expanding access to MPS to include all TRS22PE owners under a new "TRS22PE MPS Access Plan".
The TRS22PE MPS Access Plan provides a selection of routes to join. This will ensure the best possible experience, with more players spread across fewer routes. The goal here is for groups to form and work together to create their world rather than having lots of people working on their own personal project (which can just as easily be done offline).
We will carefully monitor the number of players in each route and create more routes as demand requires.
More concurrent users also means higher server loads, and potentially a drop in performance for everyone. To ensure these peak loads are carefully managed, we reserve the right to adjust the number of users allowed into any given route and also the total number of users at any one time.
Trainz Plus Standard and Trainz Plus Gold members will be given priority access to the servers under times of extreme load.
