This mod adds several cosmetic things to help make your Immersive Railroading experience even more immersive. Featured in this mod is a railroad signal, manual switch stand, several track side flags, and a rolling stock assigner to allow you to see the identity of your locomotives and rail cars. This is a work in progress mod! I still have many things I want to add and there may be some weird bugs that exist.
Things I want to add include (but are not limited to):
- More signal modes
- Occupation (when a train is in a block)
- Diamond (protects an Immersive Railroading Crossing track)
- More switch stand models
- More signal models
- Whistle posts
- Mile post signs
- More??
- Suggestions from the community
This mod can work without Immersive Railroading, but to get the most out of it, I highly recommend using it with this mod.

I understand that the mod is still in progress. I have a few requests for the railroad signals feature.
The railroad signal that I know to be included in the mod is a simple three light signal, arranged like a traffic light. On some railroads, there are Vader signals which look very similar. There are many types of US railroad signals, the most common being Type G, Searchlight / Target signals, and Vader signals. (Here is a Wikipedia article about North American signals)

I've played with the Railcraft mod a bit, and will the signal system for RailStuff be similar to Railcraft?
That is all I have, the mod looks great.
In reply to immersiverailroadinguser:
Hi there! While trying to keep a Minecraft-y feel to the signals, I was trying to base them off of the Vader signals. I do plan on adding other kinds of signals to the mod.
The signals do/will have three primary functions for the first "main" release:
A manual-ish CTC mode is in the talks right now, but we're not sure how we're going to proceed with that yet. Check out the Discord to join in on the conversation!
In reply to CSX8600:
Sounds good. Yes, it is probably a good idea to keep the MC style with this mod. Bear in mind that the textures contribute more to the style than the actual shapes.
I feel like this mod has some potential (Also, I couldn't help but note that CSX 8600 is an EMD SD60)
Hi,
I found one little issue:
all 3 kinds of flags are buggy in the hand (third person perspective), it is this texture glich at moving objects. (like the tinkers tank, if the player has Optifine installed)
MC: 1.12.2
RS: 0.0.1
Forge: 2810
Optifine installed?: No
(I can't upload a picture here, because I don't understand the curse text editor regarding to pictures) ^^
Ps: I'm the dude from the YT comment, with the electric trains and their pantographs.
Edit: next thing that I found: The One Probe show me an error -> "tile.railstuff.mast_fake.name" -> on the Signal.
(the other blocks are correct)

Neat little mod! Can't wait to see what you'll make of this mod. 👍
