Railway Tips

Simple tips to assist pioneers in placing railway for efficient train routes.

Introduction

Trains and Railway systems are key to automating the large-scale transportation of resources across vast distances. Unlocking these systems will significantly enhance your factory’s logistical capabilities, allowing for the seamless transfer of materials between production sites and storage facilities.

When constructing FICSIT Railway, it will naturally adjust its curvature based on the surrounding terrain, elevation, and the positioning of both the start and end points. Upon connecting Railway to an existing segment, the track will automatically adjust its alignment to seamlessly integrate with the previously placed section.

To initiate Railway construction, equip your Build Gun and access the Build Menu. Navigate to the Transportation tab and select Railway. Place your starting point, then select the desired endpoint. A segment of Railway will now be automatically built between these two positions.

Note: To ensure a straight Railway segment, press and hold the CTRL key during placement. This will override natural curvature, creating a segment originating from the railway starting position.

Note: Trains can be unlocked in Tier 6 of the Space Elevator.
