TRAINS Guide for Ark Survival Ascended! HOW TO USE TRAINS and Everything You NEED to KNOW!!!

yo guys what is up it's teach here coming at you again with another video over on Arc survival ascended and obviously you can see it behind me Scorch to Earth has just released which includes the train now the train is a super cool thing you can see I've got some tracks laid out in front of me I'll show you everything you need to know about it what to do all that kind of stuff in this video especially if you don't have it it's it's a really cool really NE Edition inside of uh Arc and I'll go ahead and kind of walk you through everything if you don't mind smash that like button leave a comment below for the algorithm and then consider subbing to the Channel all right so let's go and get started so anyways you got track you got trains and then you've got to train engines right so those are the three things that you need to know you can actually see them inside of your ingrams um by going into the Bob's Tall Tails and then if you scroll down you can get to level 43 you'll be able to have a train engine train plat for car a train platform car and then a train track now there's quite a few cool things I'll walk you through all of it so anyways those are the three items they kind of change around the train engine itself is obviously quite large it has a 25,000 Health pool so keep that in mind that's a pretty hefty Health pool and then the actual platform cars have 15,000 Health as well you can climb all over the train and it serves as like a climbable object obviously you can see that I'm on top of it right now it's a little bit Goofy with the actual um place that you kind of lay on it and kind of sit on it so that's that's just how it is uh it is a thing that you can actually go up to and drive it by clicking on it it seems to be something that you can drive for some reason by just hitting e on any part of it just like you would a tame and then it kind of teleports you up into the actual engine cockpit now when you are driving this thing there are some features that you can use you can go forwards by hitting forwards and then you can go back by hitting back now just so you can see what happens when you go all the way back it smacks boom now here's the negative thing right I just crushed it so so you want to not smash into something because obviously that's going to cause problems right um obviously by Smashing this in I no longer have my little thing there so you want to be very careful when driving it that you don't run into anything now when you are driving it all you have to do in order to move forwards is actually hit the forwards button um and it'll actually change the direction and everything that the car is going for you now if you're having issues or it gets stuck or something along those lines it is a very simple solution solution because you are able to pick up the actual train engine now it's a useful thing obviously and then if you're having issues again you can go ahead and take out the Train Engine and then you can use it the main engine and requires charcoal to run you just walk over to a section of the track and then you can actually add the train to that track nowain placement is obstructed you've kind of got to find an actual place where you can actually put this train down so it's going to give me problems right now come on let me let me add the train here placement is obstructed what is obstructing it interesting there it goes okay it was obstructed for some unknown reason so you need to put fuel inside of the train in order for it to run that is charcoal charcoal because it functions as coal will work just fine now obviously you see me going backwards see me going forwards it does take a quick second to slow down so keep that in mind right so as soon as I'm moving forwards if I go forwards and I tap back it'll actually halt the train you need to hit back again to actually move backwards and the same thing for going forwards if you tap backwards and then tap forwards it'll actually move that forward location for you what is this that's interesting I'm going to attach the car I guess can I pick this up that's kind of cool okay so it must have like ballooned into the distance somewhere cuz the train car just like disappeared so anyways you can just hop in the train and then if you want to add a train card just like you saw me there we can go ahead and click add add cart and then train platform car and it'll automatically attach it to the back side so that is how you drive the train forwards backwards you cannot really steer the one thing you'll notice is that there is a left option and then a stay on path option if I hit the left option it means at a Crossroads it's going to go left and then if I hit the forwards option or like the stay in the middle option that's the direction it's going to go now this little car that we just attached to it right so this car right here you only have a few options you can demolish it go to cart detach car pick up and then go to engine what's really cool you can just teleport to the engine real quick and then same thing with this guy you can actually go to the cart you just have to select the cart that you want to go to and it'll teleport you to the middle of the cart another cool thing right so these carts can actually carry quite a bit they cannot fit Tech generators unfortunately however they can have power generators and those power generators can be used to power chemistry benches which are placeable they can be used refining forges or Industrial gorgeous which is super cool because you can essentially use one of these to mine your metal which is obviously going to be incredibly powerful and save you a ton of time now foundations cannot be placed on here so you're kind of limited to the amount of space based on the train platform car itself so all of that is great and all but you cannot Place turrets on it there is no type of turret that is placeable so that kind of sucks however you can place a large storage crop that will allow you to place a plant species X seed inside of it so you can have plant species X on side or I guess on top of a train engine so that is what you can actually place on these things you can place coffins you can place whatever you need to place which is useful obviously they can be used I can see a lot of useful things such as raiding such as um actually uh resource runs taming things you can actually use one of these to tame things and it's a very useful thing overall so the negative side of this is it's quite expensive to build the actual train track there are six different options that you have you've got a connector a long piece like the single wood track a two-way split a two-way merge and then a three-way overall so you can see this is also the short version of it so what you can do is you can actually kind of run along the tracks and it will automatically place this little green indicator to allow you to place down more and more track now what you want to notice is it eventually gets to a point where it goes red like this because it's going into the ground and it won't let you do that so you got to get a location that works and I usually can just hover above right so I can so you can see what I'm talking about find a location that you can actually get to work and it'll allow you to place train tracks there we go so we're starting to get a little bit of problem here though so see how this one kind of goes straight up the only oh there we go so you can actually kind of get different angles depending on how you look at this thing um if you look to the left it'll go up and left and if you look kind of downish it's going to go ahead and come on let me let me let me let me see here buddy I don't know why it didn't want to let me go down again there we go so if you get above it it'll start to actually like curve down so you can control depending on where you look allowing you to place the track in a new location each time and it does give you some pretty it's pretty self- inuitive if that makes sense now when you have an issue like this where they're not not quite close enough what you can do is you can place these connectors and these connectors will allow you to actually attach the um pieces to it which is obviously going to save you a lot of time the only negative thing is these connectors won't actually just let you place them so you can't just like control where they go all over the place you have to connect them to existing already used tracks so what I'll do is you can kind of raise it up a little bit to make sure it's not in the ground just like you would with a normal foundation and then try and make get as close as you can because it is a little bit picky with what it allows to attach for some reason I don't know why it just kind of is that way so yeah but that's how you build the actual track itself now I'm going to go ahead and try and split this track come on go that's what I was looking for let's see if that works I might be a little bit off it really does want you for some reason to pick up the track and make it as close as possible to maybe maybe this will work right we'll try it there so and then let's go ahead and see if we can get the connector piece to work uh it's not going to let me show you guys but you can use the connector and it does work you just kind of have to fin angle it a little bit sometimes which is unfortunate but anyways now that we've got this set up we've kind of created ourselves a little bit of a track let's hit left to make sure we go left and then our train is going to go ahead and move onto the left track now obviously we selected the left so it's going to go right there and you'll see it climbs Hills just fine it seems to make maintain a constant pace and then you can kind of just guide the train as you will that is how the train actually functions and it's a pretty useful thing now if you wanted to leave a cart let's say someone is using something you can actually detach this cart leave it there to have one of your tribe mates grind a whole bunch of resources and then come back later to it or if in the circumstances like I'm in right now you're trying to find a way for this to actually work you can kind of take a little bit of time and figure out how to make this thing not burn break itself so go ahead and see if I can find a way I don't think I'm going to be able to but just so you can see what happens if you pick it up yes it does explode now I only found that out on accident when I was building my first track I didn't quite know what to do and I was like you got to be kidding me um which really sucks so there is no fixing it it just explodes wastes all your resources so be very careful about picking up track unless your train is completely off of it another suggestion I have is the higher up you can place this the better off you are because it is not very good at actually figuring out where it um where the ground is so you've kind of got to like lift up and adjust things for the track itself it's too high above the ground so in order to kind of make this work you've really got to like build it on flat surfaces if you can avoid Hills like I'm doing right now or not doing very successfully you might say um that's the best thing that you can do because when you have have these Hills I it's very difficult to get this train track to actually want to stick like this right here obviously you can see that um but unfortunately it it just it's a little bit of learning and a little bit of a pain in the butt but that is how you build everything you can build this there is no distance limit it's not like there's a requirement you can go an entire map's worth of trains and I've got a feeling that negatively we're going to see train tracks all around maps all over the place which is going to suck um if you try and keep keep it in like the little shallow parts of areas that's going to be your best friend for actually making these train tracks now you can do Giant Circles you can create merging things you can create just like you saw this these two-way things you do not have the option to actually adjust them as here you just choose by the tracks you can from what I have been able to do make multiple trains on the same track so I have a feeling people will be able to crash into each other which is not going to be a good thing but it can be something that I can see being awesome I think having trains like this is a super cool thing inside of Arc and it also let you autopilot things because you can hit forwards and then just like hop off to me that is one of the coolest things I've ever seen so anyways this is how you use trains and what they're used for inside of Arc and hopefully this video helps you out other than that [Music] teach [Music] oh
