    Hi guys.
    I've been making these lately.
    What do you think? Should I post the entire collection?
    I also have options to make these specific to a scheduled service.

    Well, now that is looking very interesting. Lots of work it looks like, but a full set of these for all the routes, especially UK routes, now that would be awesome.

    If you are considering posting your collection then please do! This is great for people who want to learn a route and eventually go HUD-less on them. Great work :D.

    Also out of interest can I ask what tools or software did you use to make these maps.

    Hi, not to mislead, I have help from an LLM (Claude from Anthropic)
    Going through and first making an analysis of the route, then overlaying it with opensource map data.
    This all started with some severe nostalgia for BVE 4. I wanted joystick control and that feeling of remembering the route for the last maybe 15 years.
    This is the repo for anyone technical enough https://github.com/oda1560/joystick_tsw
    Got the joystick interface and the mapping tools. I don't have all the routes, but most of them. If you run the utility yourself, you can generate maps for all services or maps for specific services for whatever DLCs you have.
    Direct link to all the maps I got - https://github.com/user-attachments/files/33604124/maps.zip

    Forgot to mention, the joystick program itself also warns when exceeding passenger comfort when breaking or accelerating as well as smooth stops or a lack of
