offset is not [0,0,0], which would be advisable for newly produced containers. A simple way to
622622
state such offset is to use the ``Show Bounding Info`` of ``Shape Viewer``.

Pre-setting a .wag file to accommodate containers
625+
-------------------------------------------------
626+
627+
As a minimum following block must be present in the .wag file for a double stacker::
628+
629+
ORTSFreightAnims (
630+
LoadingAreaLength ( 12.20 )
631+
AboveLoadingAreaLength ( 12.20 )
632+
DoubleStacker ()
633+
Offset( 0 0.34 0 )
634+
IntakePoint ( 0 6.0 Container)
635+
)
636+
637+
- LoadingAreaLength is the length in meters of the loading area available for containers
638+
- AboveLoadingAreaLength is the length in meters of the above loading area available
639+
for containers (parameter not needed if not double stacker)
640+
- DoubleStacker must be present if the wagon allows double stacking
641+
- Offset is the offset of the center of the rectangle of the loading area with respect to
642+
the shape file of the wagon.
643+
- The first and the third IntakePoint parameters have the same meanings than the ones used
644+
for generic pickups. The first parameter must be equal to the Z value of the offset.
645+
``Container`` is mandatory.
646+
647+
This ``ORTSFreightAnims`` block can include also static freight animations as described in
648+
the related paragraph.

Allocation of the containers on the wagons
651+
------------------------------------------
652+
653+
A container may have following positions within the loading area of the wagon: Rear, CenterRear,
654+
Center, CenterFront, Front and Above. Following picture shows where the first five positions are located
655+
on the wagon, while Above is the above position in dual-stack configurations. The Above position is
656+
always centered.
657+
658+

659+
660+
Some loading configurations are shown in following picture:
661+
662+
.. image:: images/features-loading-configurations.png
663+
664+
From left to right the loading configurations are present (locomotive on the left):
665+
666+
- CenterFront, CenterRear, Above
667+
- Center
668+
- Front, Rear
669+
- Front, Center, Rear
670+
- Front, Rear
671+
- Front, CenterFront, CenterRear, Rear.
672+
673+
The real rules to allocate double-stacked containers must be respected:
674+
675+
- no 20ft stacked above
676+
- only one container above
677+
- at least 40ft of containers below.
