This tool obeys the value displayed on the Dragging signal density button on the Signal Selection toolbar. Click the tool button again to deselect it. Then you may click on individual signals to remove them or click and drag along a section of track to remove a line of signals. The white square will change to a red square. You can remove existing signals by clicking the Bulldozer button on the Railway Construction toolbar, while having the Signal Selection toolbar open. Also note that if you click and drag from entry, exit or combo signals, this method will construct block signals facing the same direction. You may change the dragging signal density by clicking the small arrows on the button. Once you have selected a signal type, position your cursor over the railway tracks, where you wish to build your signal.ĭepending on the value displayed on the Dragging signal density button on the Signal Selection toolbar, signals will be placed every N game tiles (the default value for N is 4) when constructing a line of signals this way.

The setting is called "Automatically build semaphores before" and can be found in the "Advanced settings" under "Construction" and then "Signals". Generally speaking, the left style (semaphores - older electro-mechanical signals) is appropriate until the 1970s, and the right style (modern electric light signals) afterwards.įurthermore, semaphores will be created by default instead of light signals before a configurable year, 1950 by default. There is no functional difference between the signal styles - it's only a question of aesthetics which one you use. Signal density tool - sets how closely the signals are placed when auto build of signals are used. Signal conversion tool - converts the signal type on the track to the one selected in the gui. One-way path signal (can not be passed in the reverse direction) Standard path signal (can be passed in the reverse direction, and is ignored in that case) Explanation (you can ignore everything except path signals, they're all you need - see also Which signal type to use):
