I never had any Service failures in TWS 2. Now I'm getting them all over the place in TWS 3. I'm getting them in Sand Patch Grade, Horseshoe Curve and Cajon pass. Some are at the end of a 2+ hour run. All are happening at 10mph or less on stright track. WTF. And with no save, all I'm doing is wasting my time. Terrible execution of the new version. Shame on you Dovetail. There are no signals involved in any failure.
Could you provide more detail such as how you were driving (acceleration, braking), was it an incline, decline. You just said 10mph or less but nothing more.
There's not much information that can help right now, random derailments are all over the place even on stationary locomotives, and service failures appear to be being triggered when NPC trains pass red signals. Plenty examples but no way to prevent it except keep reloading saves until it doesn't trigger.
Pick your poison. It's happening everywhere. I had to stop playing for now. This game is way to buggy one Xbox Series X. And with no save yet, it's a waste of time playing. I don't know is this is happening on the European routes, but Dove Tail really needs to pay way more attention to the American routes.
Just derailed on HBK slowing down on a straight track. Notch 3 train brake, no junctions, clear. The 112.1. Been doing services on the track all week without a problem so it was super weird. I took a long break after an update caused instant derail on my next-up journey service on MSB. And I was speechless when I found it still hasn't been fixed 4-5 months later. I actually really thought they wouldn't port over the old content without fixing everything. Hate being negative but today has made me more cautious in a number of ways. Gotta praise HBK's new timetable though. It's awesome.
These 'random' crashes are most likely stack overruns. I developed SW in the 80s, we had tools then to debug the stack and dynamic memory allocation. The 'Mongolian horde' theory of software development is always popular with the underwriters, until new sales tank. I'm reaching my limit.
They need to accelerate the restoration of the save even if it means before the fixes. I’m loving the game. I went in and did all of the new training modules. Then I messed around with the training center and got all of the maps. then in the first scenario I tried on spirit of steam (the bovine one) I’m about a mile outside of crewe I had already slowed and was in the 20mph track limit when bammm the game crashed. the first scenario I tried. Needless to say I’m pissed.
