— In-game description |
The Crane Railway Track is a player-built structure that are used by Large Cranes to move from one position to another. It is the only place where Large Cranes can be built.
Construction
It is built with 25 Processed Construction Materials. It can only be built on Foundations. Its length is adjustable, between 5 and 30 meters. The tracks can only be built in a straight line, and must have foundations on its entire path in order to be built. The left and right rails don't need to be on the same foundation piece.
Tier 2 Facilities must be fully researched in the Weapons and Structure Tech Tree in order to be constructed.
Demolition
The original builder can instantly demolish it if it was built less than 6 hours ago. The materials used in the construction are refunded and dropped under the player.
Destruction
It is immune to Friendly Fire but it can be flagged for "Disruptive Structure Placement" to remove the immunity (5 "votes" needed). A segment can't be damaged if a Large Crane is on top of it.
Use
It is used as tracks for Large Cranes and is the only spot where they can be built.
Tips
- Due to the Large Crane having the longest crane arm length of all cranes, it is not completely necessary to build a long Crane Railway Track, as most crane setups are not extremely large.
