Does a 3 platform (6 track) station exist - if not suggestions on starting one?

Hello,

I have got into a mess with my current city and really need a 6 track station (3 platforms). What I actually need (aside from better planning) is a 6 track 2 monorail 2 metro mega-hub, but I'd settle for a 6 track station.

I cannot find one in the workshop - but have found a post showing one on this site (https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/68962-elevated-multi-track-station-with-integrated-bus-hub/)

- except it has a bus hub which is the one thing I don't need.

Sadly I don't really have the time to produce a model myself - not that good at Blender :(  . Soo...

Is there anyway to stick station assets together in the editor so that the sub building does not moan about not being connected to a road? I found a good 2 track station on the steam workshop and tried to add it the the standard train/metro/monorail hub. This works and the sims change tracks but the sub building has that 'I'm not connected to a road icon' on it. Is there a way to kill a buildings road connection?

Many thanks

Hi. 

Yes there is a way. You have to change the placement mode of the building to "on ground" to place it anywhere...plus you have to change to building ai to "dummy building" or "decoration building". In addition to that the that you also have to change the buildings stats to: no workers/tourists, no garbage accumulation and no fires.

If all that is done you're able to use the building as a subbuilding "within" your main station building without the need for a separate road connection to it. 

 

There is maybe an easier way to achieve what you want, but that's at least the walkarround I would use.
