Template Format

{{RailRouteData
|routename    = (optional - defaults to page name)
|colour1      = (required)
|colour2      = (optional)
|coords       = (required)
}}

Empty Template

{{RailRouteData
|routename    = 
|colour1      = 
|colour2      = 
|coords       = 
}}

• colour1 is a hex colour code (e.g. #bb7520 - note the presence of the # symbol), which determines the colour of the rail route when displayed on the map.
  • At the moment, rail routes are plotted as colour1/white dashed lines that are twice the thickness of boat routes.
  • colour2 is currently not in use.
• coords is a list of coordinates in format x y z or x z (with y being defaulted to 64), separated by newlines, that defines the path taken by the rail route. Branches that form part of the same rail network can be added by enclosing newline-separated coordinates in the same format in brackets - please see the example for further information.

Explanation of Coords

There is one "main line"*, and two branches. The two branches are arbitrary "secondary/tertiary etc." lines starting at one set of coords and ending at another as defined inside the brackets. *arbitrary main as all branches of a network are treated as one unified network on the map.
