<h2>Additions to NewGRF Specifications in JGR's Patchpack in NML</h2>
<p>This document describes non-standard additions to the <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Main">Official OpenTTD NML Specifications</a> which are present in this patchpack and the associated <a href="https://github.com/JGRennison/nml">NML fork</a>.
<p>These additions MAY also be present in other patchpacks. They MAY be removed or moved in future, if necessary.</p>
<p>Not all standard NewGRF features are supported by NML, consequently not all non-standard additions to the specifications are supported by this patchpack's associated NML fork, or are listed in this document.<br />
See the associated <a href="newgrf-additions.html">non-NML document</a> for more details.</p>
<p>All of the non-standard features listed below will automatically emit suitable feature tests, conditionals, etc. such that NewGRFs which use these features will work correctly
on OpenTTD versions which do not support these features, including standard trunk OpenTTD and older/other patchpack versions.</p>
<p>All of the non-standard variables listed below will return 0 on OpenTTD versions which do not support these features/variables, including standard trunk OpenTTD and older/other patchpack versions.</p>

<h3 id="builtin-functions"><a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Builtin_functions">Builtin functions</a></h3>
<p>
<h4>extended_feature_test(feature_name[, min_version[, max_version]])</h4>
This returns true if the given extended feature is present and has a version within the specified minimum and maximum (inclusive).<br />
This function should only be used after the grf{} block.<br />
In most cases it is not necessary to use this function, as extended properties (listed below) which are not supported are simply skipped/ignored.
</p>
<h3 id="switch-types"><a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Switch">Additional switch types</a></h3>
<p>
In addition to SELF and PARENT, switches for vehicle features may use one of the following types below.<br />
(These are mostly the same as in <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Random_switch">random_switch</a>).<br />
The 'x' parameter (count x vehicles in given direction) is currently required to be a compile-time constant between 0 and 255.
<table>
<tr><th>Type</th><th>Meaning</th></tr>
<tr><td>BACKWARD_SELF(x)</td><td>Count x vehicles backward (away from the engine), starting at the vehicle itself</td></tr>
<tr><td>FORWARD_SELF(x)</td><td>Count x vehicles forward (towards the engine), starting at the vehicle itself</td></tr>
<tr><td>BACKWARD_ENGINE(x)</td><td>Count x vehicles backward, starting at the leading engine</td></tr>
<tr><td>BACKWARD_SAMEID(x)</td><td>Count x vehicles backward, starting at the first vehicle in the chain with the same ID</td></tr>
</table>
<p>These require the <span class="code">more_varaction2_types</span> feature. If this feature is not present, switches of these types will produce a CB_FAILED result.</p>
</p>
<h3 id="ship-callbacks"><a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Vehicles#Vehicle_callbacks">Ship callbacks</a></h3>
<p>
The <span class="code">articulated_part</span> callback is also available for ships.<br />
Additional ship parts are not used for graphics, they are only used for additional cargo capacity, the default graphics chain is unused.<br />
The default graphics chain for the primary vehicle may check the cargo states of the other ship parts if required.<br />
Additional ship parts may be refitted individually.
<p>This requires the <span class="code">multi_part_ships</span> feature.</p>
<p>From version 3 of the <span class="code">multi_part_ships</span> feature, spritegroup loading/loaded cargo thresholds refer to the entire ship, not just the first vehicle.</p>
</p>
<p>
Added callback: <span class="code">refit_part_name</span><br />
This callback is called on the primary vehicle to get the name of each part of the ship (e.g. the name of each cargo hold) in the refit window.<br />
This is not called for ships of only one part.<br />
The callback handler should return a string or CB_RESULT_NO_TEXT.<br />
If this callback is not handled or if CB_RESULT_NO_TEXT is returned, a default name is used.<br />
<span class="code">getbits(extra_callback_info1, 0, 8)</span> contains the index of the part of the ship. The first/primary part is 0, each subsequent part increases the value by 1.

This feature allows signal sprites to be specified using switches in a very similar manner to <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Railtypes#signals">railtype signals</a> in
<span class="code">item (FEAT_RAILTYPES) { graphics { signals: ... } }</span> blocks.<br />
However this applies to all signals, not only those of a particular rail type.<br />
Railtype signal graphics have a higher priority than general signal graphics as set here.<br />
<br />
Variables: <span class="code">extra_callback_info1</span>, <span class="code">extra_callback_info2</span>, and <span class="code">terrain_type</span>
are the same as for <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Railtypes#signals">railtype signals</a>.<br />
<br />
This feature is not supported by standard OpenTTD or by standard NML.<br/>
If the use of this feature is not optional, the feature name: <span class="code">action3_signals_custom_signal_sprites</span> should be checked using the
<span class="code">extended_feature_test</span> function
and if necessary a suitable fallback used or error message shown.<br />
<br />
An <span class="code">item (FEAT_SIGNALS, custom_signals, 0) { }</span> block should be used to define properties and graphics.<br />
The graphics block should contain a single default switch.
</p>
<table>
<tr><th>Property</th><th>Value range</th><th>Comment</th></tr>
<tr><td>enable_programmable_pre_signals</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Enable programmable pre-signal graphics.<br />
Programmable pre-signals have a signal type (<span class="code">getbits(extra_callback_info2, 16, 8)</span>) of 6.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>enable_no_entry_signals</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Enable no-entry signal graphics.<br />
No-entry signals have a signal type (<span class="code">getbits(extra_callback_info2, 16, 8)</span>) of 7.<br />
No-entry signals always have a signal state of red.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>enable_restricted_signals</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Enable restricted signal flag.<br />
When enabled, bit 24 of variable <span class="code">extra_callback_info2</span> is set if the signal is restricted (has a routing restriction program attached).<br />
When enabled, the "Show restricted electric signals using default graphics" client setting and signal post recolouring is not applied.<br />
This flag must only be set if a different sprite is returned when bit 24 of <span class="code">extra_callback_info2</span> is set.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>enable_signal_recolour</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Enable recolouring of graphics<br />
When enabled, in addition to returning a sprite, register 0x100 may be set to the following using STORE_TEMP:
<table>
<tr><th>Bits</th><th>Meaning</th></tr>
<tr><td>0 - 23</td><td>Recolour sprite to use. Set to 0 for no recolouring.</td></tr>
<tr><td>24 - 31</td><td>Reserved, set to zero.</td></tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>extra_aspects</td><td>0 - 6</td>
<td>
The value is the number of additional signal aspects to use (e.g. 4-aspect signalling should use a value of 2).<br />
When set, the lowest byte of <span class="code">extra_callback_info2</span> (signal state) may have the given number of additional values starting from 02:
<table>
<tr><th>Value</th><th>Meaning</th></tr>
<tr><td>00</td><td>Red signal</td></tr>
<tr><td>01</td><td>Green signal</td></tr>
<tr><td>02</td><td>1st extra aspect (e.g. yellow)</td></tr>
<tr><td>03</td><td>2nd extra aspect (e.g. double yellow)</td></tr>
<tr><td>...</td><td>Further extra aspects...</td></tr>
</table>
<br />
The provided value is currently clamped to be within the range 0 - 6 (inclusive).<br />
N.B. Realistic braking must be enabled for additional signal aspects to be used
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>define_style</td><td>1 - 255</td>
<td>
Define a custom signal style<br />
Signals using this style will only use this GRF, or the default graphics if no graphics are returned.<br />
The value supplied is returned in the signal_style variable.<br />
This property (and related signal style properties) may be used more than once.<br />
The total number of custom signal styles in a game is currently limited to 15.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_name</td><td>string</td>
<td>
Set the name of the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).<br />
This property should be used if using the define_style property, as otherwise the style will have no name.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_electric_enabled</td><td>bitmask(SIGNAL_TYPE_XXX, ...)</td>
<td>
Set which electric signal types may be built using this signal style for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).<br />
At least one of this property and <span class="code">style_semaphore_enabled</span> should be set to a non-zero value, as otherwise
no signal types will be enabled for this custom signal style.<br />
If PROG or NO_ENTRY are set, it is not necessary to also set <span class="code">enable_programmable_pre_signals</span> or <span class="code">enable_no_entry_signals</span>.

<tr><td>style_semaphore_enabled</td><td>bitmask(SIGNAL_TYPE_XXX, ...)</td>
<td>
Set which semaphore signal types may be built using this signal style for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).<br />
See <span class="code">style_electric_enabled</span>, above.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_no_aspect_increase</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Set whether the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property) does not increase
the signal aspect with respect to the signals either side (i.e. function like a banner repeater).
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_always_reserve_through</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Set whether reserve through is unconditionally enabled for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_lookahead_extra_aspects</td><td>0 - 6 or 255</td>
<td>
Set the look-ahead extra aspects for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).<br />
This property only makes a difference when the "realistic train braking is aspect limited" game setting is enabled.<br />
This limits the signal aspect which the hypothetical train driver can "read" from the signal without affecting signal aspect propagation to other signals, or variable <span class="code">extra_callback_info2</span>.<br />
Example values could include: 1 for traditional banner repeater signals.<br />
Shunt signals should use <span class="code">style_lookahead_single_signal_only</span> instead.<br />
The value is clamped to be less than or equal to the value set in the <span class="code">extra_aspects</span> property.<br />
<br />
As a special case, a value of 255 (0xFF) disables the "realistic train braking is aspect limited" setting entirely for signals using this style.<br />
This should only be used for signal types which are intended to emulate in-cab signalling, instead of the "driver" visually reading a signal.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_lookahead_single_signal_only</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Set the look-ahead to single signal only mode for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).<br />
This property only makes a difference when the "realistic train braking is aspect limited" game setting is enabled, or when using a different signal
type which uses <span class="code">style_combined_normal_shunt</span>.<br />
This is similar to <span class="code">style_lookahead_extra_aspects</span> with a value of 0, except the lookahead always ends at the
next signal, even if that signal type sets <span class="code">style_no_aspect_increase</span>.<br />
If enabled, this property overrides <span class="code">style_lookahead_extra_aspects</span>.<br />
This can be used for shunt signals.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_combined_normal_shunt</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Enable functioning as a combined normal aspect and shunt signal for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).<br />
When enabled and displaying a shunt aspect, the signal state in the lowest byte of <span class="code">extra_callback_info2</span> will have the value: 0xFF.
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_opposite_side</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Set whether signals should be drawn on the opposite side of the track for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>style_realistic_braking_only</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
Set whether signals using this style may only be built when realistic braking is enabled, for the most recently defined style (defined using the <span class="code">define_style</span> property).
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>no_default_style</td><td>0 or 1</td>
<td>
When enabled, custom signal graphics from this GRF are only used for custom signal styles, not the default style
