So now we have covered sea routes and road routes, lets cover rail routes. When in the full mission builder, trains can only have two waypts. So when you are saving your rail.mis files is really simple.
Make two waypts that connect the stations or railyards you want in your campaing.
Last we come to the .prd file. The PRD file is a patrol box for carriers. Basically, the carrier will sail aroung randomly inside the patrol box. It will never leave it. Any ships assigned to the carrier will also use the prd instead of the regular sea lanes.
When in the mission builder, choose a static ship to place on the map. Put two down that make half a square. I will explain why when we go to edit the files. But for the prd, place two static ships that form two opposite corners of the box or rectange you want the prd to be.
Here is a picture of what you should make. The reason you need the two opposite corners is to make a perfect box. Since this is damn near impossible using the FMB, this does it.
Now here is a picture of the area that is used for the patrol box using the points from above
Any Questions before I move onto making the files needed using the information from all my previous posts?
