Every Dosto Timetable On Tharandter Ramp Starting At Dresden Hbf Is Broken?

Just tried a bunch different BR766.2 Dosto services on Tharandter Rampe starting at Dresden Hbf, and every one of them was botched at the start because of missing OHLE at the end of all platforms.


Services I've tried so far, all broken:

RB30 17302
RB30 17304
S3 37902
S3 37940
RE3 3780/3448
RB30 17306
S3 37904
S3 37944
RB30 17308

Not exactly a small bug to overlook, and I don't have the willpower to test any more of them. DTG Matt

Confirmed for PS5 as well. Somebody stole the OHLE of the final platform sections.

 

That’s very weird indeed, cause, even if the OHLE is missing in the game, the train should still work.

 

For some reason, it doesn't work. Indeed, I remember on LFR the BR 110 moving at Bingen freight yard even with missing OHLE.

So, the 1 Million $$$ questions are now, which 'patch' did screw the wires, when and IF it's gonna be fixed and lastly what will then be broken IF it's gonna be fixed. Which then, in turn, has to be fixed as well...

You can't make this up.

EDIT: Further investigation reveals that the services are drivable, OHLE voltage is detected in the cab car. The loco will accelerate with pantos down. As soon as it reaches the OHLE section, the panto pops up. It doesn't look pretty, but it ain't the disaster it looked to be at first glance.

 

Just adding that this does *not* as of yet happen in TSW3. So it came at a certain point during TSW4 development.

TSW3 has a couple services with this issue in the Dresden Yard and Freiberg Yard locations but none that are problematic in Dresden Hbf.


EDIT: Also similar to the following post, all such services in TSW3 are thankfully at least completable due to gravity eventually making the trains roll into an area with OHLE. Still to fix, though.

 

Hi dtg_jan,

After some tweaking and messing around with the 143 I was able to drive the services. The train accelerates with pantos down, and as soon as it enters the OHLE section, the panto pops up. So, while it's a fugly bug, it's not an untied bloodletting.

 

Also since this is the thread that's seen a response from jan, I'm going to go ahead and link the other related thread by the OP detailing this happening in other locations in the same DLC https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/ohle-ever-getting-fixed.79167/

Could anyone with a TSW4 copy verify if this repeats itself anywhere in Freiberg/Chemnitz?

 

A lot of the German OHLE seems to be having issues, first RRO then this and I had to bulldoze my way through a OHLE pole to get into Munich HBf at platform 13 yesterday or the day before.
