-===== Maintenence =====
-**Note:** Do not work on this yet; i might make it
-Trains do not run without problems. Tubes get blocked, Electrics short-circuit,
-Power supplies break, and all sorts of other things cause inconvinience.
-However, Advtrains trains always run spick-and-span, regardless of if it has had a crash at full speed with another train going full speed.
-This can be fixed by creating a whole new system of maintenence. Trains need to be maintained or they will eventually breakdown.
-By checking a integer value called "maintenence_height" (max value 1,000), a train can bias a random generator which runs every 1,000 m. As the value grows lower and lower (every 100 m the value decrements by 1, 2 if on a slope), the chances go up and eventually something has to pop.
-Once the random generator returns a value of 1, the train suffers a random problem from the ''problems'' table, which contains info on:
-  * The name of the problem, like "speed 16 bulb cracked"
-  * The speed restriction, like 15
-  * The bias for it to occur, like 10
-Once a train develops a problem, it may only be fixed through a maintenance tool.
-One tool is the spanner, which once clicking a broken train increases maintenance_height by 1. This tool can only be used 20 times.
-Another tool is the maintenance track, which holds many spanner. Since the track is specialised, it increases ''maintenance_height'' by 10 each spanner which goes into it. The train must be stopped for the track.
-For better identification, the coordinates of trains with problems can be found
-using a command and the broken trains's locomotives make loud noises, as well as having a burnt texture overlain over theirs.
