German Trains Substitution Changes & Fixes

This package contains a number of changes and fixes to the substitution of German trains (for now mostly locos). The mods are completely modular, just download what you want and need. Some of the mods disable substitution for the respective loco completely, some just disable a Geographic Region and some have tweaks for the Commonness Weighting (how likely is the loco to appear).

For now this package contains the following mods, if you have any wishes, hit me up (on Discord), it's planned to expand this package in the future.

• BR 110 [BRO]
  • Substitution Disabled
• BR 110 [LFR]
  • Substitution Disabled
• BR 112 [HBK]
  • Substitution Disabled: This doesn't work for custom liveries, they will still substitute.
• BR 143 [RSN]
  • Substitution Disabled
• BR 143 [DRA]
  • Substitution Disabled: This doesn't work for custom liveries, they will still substitute.
• BR 143 [DCZ]
  • Substitution Disabled
• BR 1442 [RT]
  • Substitution Disabled
• BR 146 [MSB]
  • Substitution Disabled
• BR 155
  • Substitution Low: Decreases the Commonness Weighting from 1.0 to 0.1 so the loco appears 10 times less. The current value of 1.0 seems to not be intentional as it's higher than for every other German loco.
• BR 182 MRCE [HBK]
  • Substitution Moderate: Increases the Commonness Weighting from 0.1 to 0.5 so the loco appears 5 times more often.
• BR 182 [RT]
  • DB Regio Disabled: Stops the RT BR 182 from substituting into passenger trains.
  • DB Regio Disabled + Substitution Moderate: Same as above + Increase Commonness Weighting from 0.1 to 0.5 for freight trains.
  • Substitution Disabled
  • Substitution Moderate: Changes Commonness Weighting from 0.1 to 0.5 so the loco appears 5 times more often.
• BR 185.2 [KWG]
  • Substitution Fixes: Removes double header and banking substitution as the KWG 185 doesn't work with the MSB 185. Also increases the Commonness Weighting from 0.1 to 0.5 so the loco appears 5 times more often.
• BR 185 Railpool [DCZ]
  • Substitution Moderate: Increases the Commonness Weighting from 0.1 to 0.25 so the loco appears 2.5 times more often.
• BR 204
  • Substitution Disabled
• HBK: BR 112 Formations
  • Substituted 5x: Increases the Substitution Probability from 0.1 to 0.5 so a different loco should appear 5 times more often in the BR 112 consists on Hamburg - Lübeck.
  • Substituted 10x: Increases the Substitution Probability from 0.1 to 1.0 so a different loco should appear 10 times more often in the BR 112 consists on Hamburg - Lübeck.
• KWG AI Stock
  • Substitution Disabled: This disables the KWG AI stock (BR 146, Dostos and BR 442) from substitution and removes them from the menus.
