I've noticed (and love) that you spawn outside the station in MAC rather than on a platform after spawning ON FOOT. I really enjoy this as I spawn on foot for all services as to give myself some extra time to set up and a bit more realism. I hope this can be added to future routes too as its as though I've just arrived at the station. Just a cool feature I seen.
I don't know if you are being sarcastic, but that is a glitch and not by design as far as i am aware. Sometimes you spawn miles away!!
Ok, I misunderstood you. There is a glitch with the 220 services on MAC whereby you don't spawn on the train but at some station or another, that could be far, far away. Not the same as spawning on foot. I assume that is just the spawn point they selected for each location and could be done for other routes if the dev desired.
I agree and do the same. Sometimes tho you have to wait as AI won't let you take the commands of the train (as in B2C).
