the ICE 3 and ICE 1 coaches are not further marked with any additional information to help identify which is actually which. for example every 403 coach only says "BR403 DB" instead of something like "BR403.2 DB", which would be a second class transformer middle car right between the 1st class panto car and the Bordrestaurant (I know the ICE 3 too well). on top of that. I wanted to make a custom formation with ICE 3 cars and I had to uninstall Munich-Augsburg so it gives me the KWG ICE 3 cars, but then it puts the railbow ones there so I had to uninstall THAT one asWELL! and finally... why are both ICE 3 end cars (perhaps only on the KWG ICE 3) 1st class end cars despite there very clearly being one 1st class end car and one 2nd class end car? It's even in the game, why isn't it here?!
oh man, I had exactly this same issue... I wanted to make a suuuuuperlong ICE 3 consist - in Free Roam it usually lets me to do only 2x 16 ICE 3 consists, trying to do longer usually results in automatic derailment... so I wanted to do like, 48 coaches ... and I did, but... since I cant see which coach is which I kind of just threw stuff together ... and I wanted to do like 4x 8 proper consist so either I hope they mark the coaches properly, or maybe let you visualize the coach when you hover over it, or let you add a whole working consist from the game, so you dont have to select individual coaches every time
While it is in beta (should be understandable that its not this cool then) it is still very confusing. wouldve waited until they properlyishly built it up to beat this level of disappointment. also I wanted to do like a 12 car formation but uhh this aint gonna work.
From this thread: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/formation-designer-pc-beta-what-you-need-to-know.78468/ Multiple Instances of the Same Vehicle If you own a number of German packages there’s a good chance you have a number of copies of the BR185 or the Dosto coach set. This means you’ll find numerous instances of them shown in the list of potential vehicles in Formation Designer. The User Interface does not currently tell you which package each one comes from, we will be adding this information as well as looking at letting you specifically filter by the package.
it would be nice if it did somehow say... cos like BR146.2 there are 3 versions, and the KWG is pretty much useless cos it has no safety system sounds and triggers Sifa instantly without giving those like 3 seconds to react... so yeah, it would make sense if we knew which version is which, so we could use one that works best

What a stupid design choice.. otherwise you're running into more problems exponentially..
