How can i make long trains (500-1000 units) work on corner propley?
I set the distance between wheels to the right distance but it only works on rotation.
The center of the origin is still eactly on the path instead of hanging over the inside of a corner. Is there any way to fix this?

you could make the turn and track much more longer and much more gradually on the bend so it turns effectively..That may work.

Please describe EXACTLY what you are trying to do, and the effect you want to emmulate.

Can`t make it much bigger. Ive already pushed two of the areas over 4000 units across.
A short frieght train running on a loop around a map (more than one area).

Maybe if you made the train into several smaller ones that are below 500 units. That may solve your problem (as long as you keep them together to make them look realistic)

You may also want to make the path just a bit offset to the physical tracks around the corners, so that you pull it over into position

RotatorSplint good idea but. Of the 10 wagons there are 5 diffrent sizes.
Makeing 5 diffrent routes would make some paths shorter than others and it would all get out of sync.
38_98: not sure what you mean.If you mean cutting the large 1000 unit long flat cars up i`m not sure how that would work as they would bend half way along.

no i mean cutting them up into smaller cars or making lots of small trains to form one car

no. doing that would mean it looks less like a heavy goods train.
