I was thinking wouldn't it be cool if you could build your train cars on a single page and then just link it to the train?

At a high level it would mean a train needs;

  • Name
  • Defined period
  • Tag to identify it as a train

Then when creating, if you choose the train flag new options would appear.

  • New Train (see above options) +
  • Existing Train
    • choose from a list of trains (not expired)

Then build your cars by

  • adding game
  • key
  • region
  • then add line (repeat above until done)

Date/time would already be defined by the train creator
Click review and all the carts automatically get assigned a car number and pre-formatted forward/back options etc
+Other rules about how to find them/enter as I know most don't want them in the main stream

Anyways, just an idea... I was originally thinking something similar for building game+DLC multi win, but 60ish cars into the community train re-framed it lol

I don't use it, so I can't point to specifics, but I think ESGST (if you use it) has this option.

ESGST does have a train builder, but personally I got a bit confused/lost trying to use and then I was afraid to execute it in case I had messed things up and then would have to cancel all the giveaways and start over.

I create them manually now, but it sure would be nice to have a nice GUI where you could see all your cars, the linkage between them, etc... and THEN when happy with the results click the "Activate" button!

oooh thanks for the tip, I never knew about this. I'll have to check it out. Still would love to see something that's built in.

As the other users say, ESGST does have a train builder. It looks a bit much at first glance. I do wish such features were built into SG.
Also the poll options gave me a chuckle :)
