🛠 Railway Evolution v1.0.3 — The Safety & Intelligence Update! 🛡️

Huge breakthrough in train autonomy and collision prevention! This update makes your rail networks safer, smarter, and more responsive to dynamic environments.

✨ What's New: 🚨 Advanced Player Detection: Trains now "see" players on the tracks from 30 blocks away. 📢 Steam Whistle Warning: If a Train Whistle (Create Mod) is attached, the train will signal an audible warning to players, urging them to clear the tracks (2-block safety margin). 🛑 Emergency Braking: No whistle? No problem. The train will automatically execute a full stop 5 blocks before hitting a player. 🛤️ Smart Collision Awareness: Improved parallel track detection. Trains on different lanes will no longer cause "false-brake" triggers, ensuring smooth traffic flow. 🔄 Adaptive Rerouting (Beta): If a train is stuck due to a blocked path for more than 40 seconds, it will now intelligently attempt to reverse to the nearest junction to find an alternative route.

🛠 Under the Hood (Technical Fixes): 💥 Derailed Entity Detection: Derailed trains are now visible to the AI within a 20-block radius, preventing "pile-up" accidents even when the track graph is broken. 🔊 Audio Precision: Whistle sounds now correctly originate from the train's position rather than the player's location for maximum immersion. ⚙️ Reflection Refinement: Integrated deeper into Create’s conductor logic via reflection to trigger native "honk" states.

📈 Why Update? If you want your trains to act like they have a real engineer on board, v1.0.3 is a must-have. Your world will finally feel alive and safe for both players and cargo.
