   * For MTR 4 loading legacy trains made for MTR 3, the MTR mod will try to detect and split your "Train" into several parts (e.g. Cab Forward, Trailer, Cab Backward)   * For MTR 4 loading legacy trains made for MTR 3, the MTR mod will try to detect and split your "Train" into several parts (e.g. Cab Forward, Trailer, Cab Backward)
   * For the new MTR 4 format, you are suppose to define everything per-carriage instead of a single train.   * For the new MTR 4 format, you are suppose to define everything per-carriage instead of a single train.
-  * While JS scripting is not implemented yet, if and when it is implemented, you are expected to make heavy modification to your script to align with the new per-carriage system.

 +==== Dual-versioned resources (MTR 3 Custom Resource + MTR 4 Custom Resource) ====
 +
 +MTR 4 supports reading **mtr_custom_resources.json** in both MTR 3 and MTR 4 format.
 +
 +However during migration period, you may run into a situation where some content are migrated to MTR 4, while others are not, but you want to fit them in to the same resource pack.
 +
 +To that, MTR 4 supports an alias called **mtr_custom_resources_pending_migration.json**, which works effectively the same as the regular **mtr_custom_resources.json**.
 +
 +This allows you to put MTR 3's custom resources into **mtr_custom_resources_pending_migration.json**, while using **mtr_custom_resources.json** for MTR 4 content.
