TrackLayer 3.2 update
TrainPlayer Software has announced the newest version of its rail-operation simulator for the Mac, TrainPlayer-TrackLayer 3.2. Version 3.2 provides new layouts and simpler integration with the Track CAD program RailModeller that allows users to design a layout in and automatically convert it to a running TrainPlayer layout. The plan can then be used for a simulation after adding trains and beginning operations.
The update also offers new scripting capabilities that enable a custom language for operating trains and layouts, a development environment for creating scripts, and a recording facility for capturing movies and operations. The linked layouts allow trains travel from one section and directly onto the next.
TrainPlayer-TrackLayer 3.2 is compatible with Mac OS X 10.4 or higher. The standard upgrade is priced at $25, while the premium version can be purchased for $40 and provides larger layouts and an expanded car collection.
