A wild west train heist while riding dinosaurs.....I love it.

[@BersealiaDreamheart]

Just imagine, train robbers on fierce raptors, marathon iguanodons, swift gallimimuses, bouncing roos, and versatile argys .

[@loganskiwyse7823]

Tip for train stations. For the location of the rail line place a quarter foundation, then a full than another quarter foundation. Now you can use a ladder on the full foundation to center yourself when placing the rail line.

[@jwinsatt]

Great vid! btw, You can add 5 cars, detach them from the engine, move the engine forward, add 5 cars, back them up in to the previous 5, attach them to the other cars :) You might.. have to attach everything one by one after the ones attached to the engine, i forget, but you can definitely have long trains, i haven't gotten one long enough to get out of render but that might just be the limit.

[@LesterSuggs]

You only need to make 1 building skin. You can reuse it over and over.

[@Killah107]

Until you die and lose it lol 1 whole wood lol

[@leemathias4912]

When I go to cosmetics on my PC and pull it from there into my inventory, then place it in my hot bar it never cost me anything and I am playing in. Survival mode.

[@LesterSuggs]

@@leemathias4912 exactly how I use mine.

[@alexisrivera264]

Like always nooblets your guides are best. You go step by step an explain everything in detail and ease. We appreciate your work you do for our community.

[@TheCipher2012]

Just wanted to point out that if you are playing single player, the train will stop out of render distance. IF you are playing on a dedicated server it will continue to run even out of your render distance. Almost forgot, great video sir. Very informative I bandged my head against the wall for a couple hours before I looked up this guide 10/10!

[@MellaniePlays]

Thank you for that dedicated server info~ ❤

[@CantankerousOB]

that's a setting on single player, don't believe it's on by default.

[@clinck]

Ours does not continue on a dedicated server. We were hoping it would but when it gets about 350m away from anyone it stops.

[@CantankerousOB]

@@clinck There is a setting for that called something like "stasis" that allows animals to continue roaming even if out of render. The train is considered a pet.

[@noxiousvex]

You can have your single player world render the entire map if your PC can handle it. but I'd tread with caution and research this before trying it; I am not responsible for any damages to your CPU/GPU.

[@joeblow7780]

I started watching your videos years ago as a newb to ark. They are still just as awesome as they once were. Ty keep em coming.

[@seanzaucha6575]

I just bought this pack yesterday and I don't regret it. It's so much fun already

[@du3lmaul3rs50]

I like everything they did with this except the one way track limitation. It would be nice to have a turn around loop for obvious reasons.

[@Joe-wk9ow]

That would make sense as I was trying to make a loop on the Island but the train was going to face the other direction as I wanted to make a train yard. I think Snail should fix this as in real life trains can go either way on the track. It would also be interesting to see what happens when two trains colloid.

[@clinck]

Exactly, fought this an entire day and just gave up. dumb to not be able to connect two tracks together.

[@hollz1843]

Thanks as always for the great content! Learn a lot from your videos. Thank you for all your dedication & time 💜

[@sushorts5845]

I love how every guide starts with: "first step, spend 25$" :)))

[@Artfusionary]

Super informative and helpful as always thank you so much!

[@rubybishop8749]

This tickled a part of my brain I didn't know needed itching

[@Swoz69]

awesome as always steve!

[@chickyrocker]

Great tutorial Noobs! Takes some dedication to do such an indepth guide....you have more patience than me lol

[@IronHorsefan1869]

Trains are my life, and so is the Desert, this map is paradise for me

[@ZtecRig]

Great video nice work! I love the trains in this! I too had a grin on my face but placing tracks is a nightmare for me. If Ark had the same track mechanics as Satisfactory that would be a game changer for me.

[@stevenchilson4044]

This makes me want to play ark again. Damnet I swore I wouldnt

[@leemathias4912]

🚂 The Nooblets train! Awesome video! Hopefully we get a let’s play! I think a let’s play that you take a few things and tames from the first map and start in SE or have a few tribe mates and show how you would lead your tribe would be a fun way to do a new let’s play.

[@inevitableanarchy4203]

Customizable trains in my dino-punching game?? THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!!

[@Gizmo85]

The DLC was totally worth it I'm having way more fun now

[@sashasally]

I don't even own Bob's Tall Tales; in fact I've been waiting on playing much ASA until more of the maps are released... But I must admit I was very, very intrigued by the train, and your video did an excellent job informing me on how it works. (And it definitely has tempted me into reconsidering playing ASA!) I was also really curious to know how creatures interact with it (do they aggro to it, or mostly ignore it?), so thank you for including that hilarious clip of the Deathworm.

[@alsitte]

this was a great video and really pushed me towards getting bobs tall tails love a good train

[@sirgardensalot]

I put my train going around my base in a circle I did X plants but it left them above the track and I did have some that were not fully grown and once they grew up they got dropped off as well but the plants think they're on the train and their watered and they just work and the train just passes through them on the way around

[@bmelloyello]

Alpha Deathworm Train - new band name I call it!

[@peppapog8376]

Oh boy so i can put large manned guns on my train? Cant wait to make a Kriegslokomotive

[@soulsurvivor32]

We getting industrialized with this one

[@josephsillivent2806]

you can go through all the different angles of the track, left right up down level by just pushing the snap button, on xbox controller its right bumper not sure on pc.

[@cjxd]

great video, Steve

[@N1ghtR1der666]

they really need to fix that train direction problem asap if they havent already, also the improved trains mod makes placing tracks and running the train a lot better

[@damionkennedy4792]

Awesome dude

[@meeshlvslobster]

Thank you 😊

[@user-ro7wo1ke9u]

Dinos and trains. Ok. You had me at Dinos. You all know you want it. Just sucks we pay to wait.

[@rlrobbins9151]

I knew you were a train person. Lol I wonder who will be the first to build the Polar Express. A haunted train design complete with a death worm aboard might also be a deliciously spooky idea for Halloween. Death worm, maybe a lot of fires in the last car. Lots of design potentials. Thanks for showing us this.

[@JayBGames]

This honestly looks amazing and fun. Tempted to buy Ark SA.

[@solidmario64]

While it is weird that the tracks aren't neutral, as a train enthusiast I can say for certain I'm loving this system. :D

[@GraveHyperion]

Finally working on mine today. Hope i can mine all the metal, lol

[@johnperez3212]

Try putting an overweight oviraptor and turn un its ability since the oviraptors ability is to render fems to produce eggs, the rendering mechanics work on a few things

[@keblin86]

Trains haha? What? I thought it was April 1st again then, saying that I can imagine some amazing builds with this!

[@xSuperDooMx]

Add more Cars to your Train line with this: [Server Settings] MaxTrainCars=22 Twenty Two cars is the FUNCTIONAL MAXIMUM. Train Engine and entire line will de-render if you're too far from it, and 22 cars reaches the max distance.

[@NOOBLETS]

lol ty, isn't that over doing it abit :P

[@whiskeydee8835]

Where did you get the x plant seeds? Didn't think they were on this map.

[@nathanarcand1596]

Not sure if this works since I haven't tried this myself yet, but I've heard if you disable hibernation when things are out of render, that fixes the train stopping when it leaves render.

[@cnone1046]

How many trains can you have on a track at a time ? Is there a wight limit? Thanks

[@Prime_Logos]

2 Things, my friend learned he can damage the train with a rpg, "thanks chris" and the death worms will also go for rides on the oasisuar.

[@hiddnen]

great detailed video! cant wait to actually build a train... but the resources to do it not in creative mode seems daunting!

[@johannespeep6511]

@nooblets have you tried the "nohibernate" keyword on startup in single player? This might let the train move even when out of render distance.

[@ZephyrusAsmodeus]

Just a couple of tips I didn't see mentioned, For one, do not stop trains on top of track splits. It tends to either break connections or render cars and the engine inside of each other. This can also happen if leaving the train and cars against a track stop. For two, mounted water tanks can only be filled by hand or by rain, intakes, even ones in range, will not fill them up. This makes any onboard farms require a lot of water storage to keep going, depending on how many plots you have. I have not tested this yet, but I would guess the same is true for electricity. For three, because i wondered the same thing, no, the train is not capable of ramming, in fact the engine itself is unable to be built upon and only mostly a physical object, the entire undercarriage of the platform cars are not physical objects at all and you and dinos can walk right under them unhindered. For four, tracks must always be contiguous, meaning they must be constructed as an overall circuit. He did mention this point briefly, but I felt I should emphasize that this means you cannot have smaller circuits, I.E, a turn around loop on a line, the train system was definitely designed to make giant, continuous circuits moving in a singular direction. That said, you can construct storage/bypass lines along the circuit for multiple engines and other cars. Thoigh notably there are no crossing track aegments, only joints, so in theory you could cross tracks with two joints mirroring each other. If it helps, imagine the track segments as having polarity, like a battery. For five, simple beds (and the coffin from the dlc) will likely gliych you into being stuck in the car floor, however the bunk bed works fine, haven't tested the cryobed but I imagine it would also glitch. For six, while the platform cars count as foundations, 2x4, you can only build out one foundation from the side of the car. The limit will not allow you to add more than just a ceiling, sometimes allowing you to make the ceiling a trapdoor and add a rope ladder. In my case, I used this minimal extention as landing pads and platforms to enter and depart over at train stations.

[@NintendoPolitics]

I wonder if there is a specific reason for the coded direction. I really wanted to turn the train around with a loop but it's not possible.

[@theycallmewolf6938]

How do you build tracks on pillars? Mine keeps saying obstructed.

[@drew5337]

I cant wait to build a rail line across Ragnarok

[@mikeg6927]

does the train have unlimited carry weight, because if so that could make for a great way to get metal with how spread out the metal nodes are on se.

[@loganskiwyse7823]

Yes. No weight limit.

[@alanhuynh2000]

How does this work on multiplayer servers? Does it block spawns?

[@Shirza_Elf]

FYI you can make a full circle

[@piretraphael1999]

Hi, on the last part the tracks didn't lined up because snapping was disabled

[@mightyraptor01]

I do have a question if you were playing a pvp/pve whether Official or Unofficial can trail track system be open to everybody who puts a train on it? Or what Im trying to say can another player put their train on it assuming they wanted to use it without the person who built the tracks system?

[@clearblue8149]

And also being a DLC content can non DLC buyers ride it, damage it, see it?

[@mightyraptor01]

@@clearblue8149 I would assume they can see it if those who didn't Bob's tails but they cant build it.

[@davepowel3249]

Steve nooblets please do a video on the series s there not drop lights spawning since scorched it’s been reported as a bug and still not fixed same issue on island no drop lights there there but only see when u 10 steps away and no colour to any or light

[@ericdelrio4672]

Does that dlc work with ps4 or ps5

[@justinl7921]

all i can see is a loop going around a base and having as many velonisaurs on it just as a mobile gun train, unless they wont let you put them in turret mode on the train when we get extinction, or just put 1 dino on and have a bunch of things on aggressive follow it

[@dangarcia1617]

Great video thanks for the awesome info

[@danielrowsey7667]

Is this DLC only on Scorched Earth? Or can it be used on the Island as well?

[@joebreaux5537]

It can be used on any map.

[@austinian1598]

Can separate tribes use someone else’s train if it’s allowed and can people build near it? I’ve only played on single player since ascended has released so no clue

[@loganskiwyse7823]

still waiting for someone to show how to setup ( or willing to work with to setup ) such a system.

[@rhemaman]

Can you pick up a train and add it into your inventory?

[@nemesis851_]

I’m already envisioning griefers transporting sand worms around the map and dropping them off at critical locations

[@TheCrazyker]

What happens to the trian if it's on a track that gets destroyed is my question after your test with worm

[@ericg9802]

gonna bring WW1 to ark with an armored war train

[@richardt4071]

I wonder if the Tek Surveillance Console would take the train out of stasis by looking at it when it’s out of render distance.

[@etw4life970]

It's gonna be a long time before that is in the game though, unless there's a mod that has it

[@Dinotossen]

i've tried putting the x-plants on the train but they are just stuck in the air and dont work if you drive the train away

[@HarryLewington]

I’m not going to buy it but looks like glitchy fun

[@Travis_Montgomery]

I followed all of the steps and have my Ports 7777, and 27015 Port forwarded and have made firewall exceptions. But I cant see my server. I have it showing all, Password protected, unofficial, and show player servers. WTF am I doing wrong? I don't know anyone else with the game so far, so I cant test to see if its available outside my network. What else can I troubleshoot?

[@dirasupia8792]

does anyone know if the train tracks block dino spawns?

[@kevbeezy7596]

NEW SCORCHED EARTH SERIES WHEN??

[@jenson3763]

Do you do KZbin as your full-time job?

[@1nZaneR]

I play PVE on a private unofficial server with friends. not all of them want to buy the DLC. Can one player owning the DLC build trains and stuff and other players that don't own the DLC can still play on the server?

[@ChaosShadowX89]

Yes they can still play on the server without having the dlc

[@CantankerousOB]

Has anyone found a way to start the track from a pillar instead of the ground?

[@thepotatoking8973]

The add cart goes away after I add the first cart, its just not there.

[@Apeninja732]

My kid love trains. He'll play just 4 that

[@clearblue8149]

Man, clean, informative, well thought out. Thanks Steve. Miles above teachers game too.

[@kinroga]

Train seems cool but cant think of a practical use for it that wouldnt instantly be a bother to other people on the server.

[@mikeH824]

I hope they remove the forced direction of the tracks, and add a turntable

[@Mindfulness.Voyage]

Unfortunately Tall Tales still doesn’t work for many of us on Xbox single player - bought it, it says I own it, but all the items remain locked. No point in buying something you can’t ever use, Wildcard…

[@HashknightGaming]

Can you put a camera on it?

[@cjlarge420]

Idk about rest of you but I’m having lots of fun with the whole map and everything 😝

[@sunshineinabag9956]

that was almost the coolest thing in ark i have ever seen until the one direction tracks. why in fucks name did they do that? just liked the band?!

[@gerty4338]

Enjoyed learning about the mechanics even though I am 💯 not paying more money for this shit game, always a joy to watch Steve 🤠

[@theyounginttg22]

Wait on pc y’all have to make many skins all I have to do on console is make one and that goes on all my walls

[@Emma.42]

I like the idea but wow I can only imagine toxic pvp servers and pretty much all pve servers will be over saturated with tracks.

[@Hitman28o7]

Kool video. It looks kool but after all the cash I have spent on Ark DLC's, they should include it for free.They are so Greedy!!

[@damienobrien1463]

good luck building train on pve, i tried, immediately blocked by console guy moaning about lag(laura!) lol

[@maxpower2245]

That Deathworm did NOT have a ticket!! 😡

[@KingDragonBlood]

Damn pc holding its mods and damn console companies for not letting mods on it

[@kotzer71]

the trains would be cool if the tracks did not cost a arm and a leg 200 metal and 400 wood to move the train 5 feet

[@viosiax5933]

Honestly I like the "idea" of it but it seems like way to much work and a headache to deal with maybe if they fix some issues with it I'll try it.

[@bearabendroth1852]

Am I the only one thinking about building a set of tracks down to the Rock Drake trench on Abb? 😅
