Drawing Train Tracks
By using the Create Button, as well as buttons for tracks 1-6, the player can draw tracks on the screen. The player can also press the corresponding 1-6 keys or the C key on the keyboard to do this as well.
Tracks cannot be drawn on top of each other, on top of stations, or on top of resources that spawn onto the screen.
The Destroy button or pressing D on the keyboard allows the player to delete tracks from the screen.
Cell System
By using some math and logic in the HTML5 canvas object, I made my own cell system for the game. This was necessary to display modular pieces like the train tracks, as well as spawn the natural resources onto the board
Train movement
As the train moves forward it follows the path provided by the train tracks, turning where the tracks turn. This is done by first having the train "read" the track on the same "cell" that it occupies. Then the train evaluates whether it should stay at the current orientation or rotate along with the track.
Natural Resources
Natural resources will spawn on the field and can be mined up to keep the train running for longer. However, they can also spawn on top of train tracks, which may cause the train to crash if it runs into the natural resource. In order to make sure that the game is fair to players, I programmed it so that natural resources can't spawn
