PoC Underground Train Station v2

Description
Proof-of-concept underground train station.

Modified from Bloody Penguin's original POC Underground Train Station which has become broken for a while. Sunset harbor update breaks pretty much every underground train station because it would force a tunnel entrance if you connect underground train track directly to ETST's tunnel station track. I think I’ve found a workaround.

It should function normally, cims will use it, but it has no interior. This is just a proof-of-concept.

The game will not force a tunnel entrance if you connect to the outer nodes as the screenshot shows, and don't put two stations too close to each other.

How to connect the tracks to the underground stations
I made a short demo video to show how to connect the tracks and show that this asset is still working as of 7/10/2021:

- Make sure road Anarchy mod is enabled
- Make sure you connect the track to the outer nodes of the underground stations
- There won't be any tunnel entrance between two underground stations

Other older videos showing this asset is functional:

If you can't create a new line, it means you didn't connect your station correctly. I can't really help.

What I did to make this asset
In asset editor: I took Bloody Penguin's original version, used Advanced Buildings Editor mod to remove the outdated train track(it would cause error too). Replaced it with ETST's updated tunnel station track, and attached short segments of ETST's sunken station track to both sides. I used -24m because it gave the best result. -12m or -16m didn't look good. And then used More Network Stuff mod to modify the pedestrian path.

In game: Placed the station and connected normal Railway collection underground train tracks to the sunken station tracks(outer nodes).

I think other broken underground train stations also can be fixed in this way, but I didn't try.

Last Update
I don't make or update Cities Skylines assets anymore. My assets are not very good in terms of quality, but feel free to use modtools to extract the mesh/texture and do anything you want to them. You have the permission to upload the modified versions to the workshop.

Hello, I reported a issue at CSLmapview. It happen to all underground or sunken station. Does it caused by too close station? I solved it temporarily by made a sideway at outer node. Is this harmful?

Thanks.

@Berisacharov

I just tested it and I was able to create a new underground train line. Maybe check if your underground tracks are really connected? This is just an experimental proof of concept so I don't really plan to update it in the future.

Hi Sway,

Could you test it if it still works? Im practically playing on Vanilla, with said assets that are in your description. But I cant get the lines to connect to the station. Even tho I am testing it with a similar setup as in your YouTube video.

Just tried today, and it works, partially. At the ends of the platform, it has the same sort of thing as the regular station, where bits of track would normally stick out and prevent building. There's no track there in this one, but it still prevents building.

@rkdclgh You also need to adjust the pedestrian path. You probably need to load this asset in the asset editor, use Move It and More Network Stuff mods to change the purple path in the picture, and save the modified -36m version as a new asset.

Hi! Can't I adjust the depth of the train platform? I forced the depth of the train platform to be -36m, but there are no passengers using the train line. The tracks are properly connected.

Follow the steps and the linked video in my previous comment. You can see there isn't any tunnel entrance between those two underground stations
