[resolved] Expert 101 Speed Hud Constantly Stops & Door Control Issues

With the BR 101 Expert I noticed that there is a bug with the doors of the carriages. When you want to close the doors they don't really close or don't open properly. When you want to lock the doors they don't close or aren't locked.

 

When driving from the driving trailer I keep encountering the speedometer not working, the hud speedometer also shows 0 KM/H and both side doors open despite all doors being closed, nothing happens changing the door switch and opening doors after this point only affects the first coach rather than the train. This keeps happening every time, I have reset the simulation values but no difference, how am I supposed to get it to work?

I have also found every time there is a push pull set with cab leading load in as AI it just sits there doing nothing and holds everything up, this is also making the routes completely unusable.

 

Remember to keep the train line ("ZS" aka Electric Train Supply) active at all times. What you are seeing is the battery dropping below a threshold voltage and starting to load shed (with the "minimalspannungsrelais" or minimum voltage protection/relay). It has several steps, initially it shuts off coach lights, then at the end it will even shut off the door locking (which is what you saw on the HUD), ep braking and the anti-skid. In the last step you lose the speedometer (or at least that is what I have been told and what I simulated).

The HUD speedometer having the same parameter as the in-cab speedometer is a bit of an oversight though.

 

The train was as setup from default, I have not turned off the supply. I have also found it seems to not be not possible to have the locomotive on the back of t/t train as it just vents the brake. I tried isolating the sifa and towing valves but it does not have any difference, the manual also has no mention, though the manual does day it is supposed to be compatible with the other loco.

 

is it just me or has anyone else seen a bug where the speedometer zeroed out completely and stopped showing the speed?

note: created a formation with ic cab-car some (expert) coaches and 218 and spawned in niddertalbahn free-roam

edit: speedometer bug occured just now with cab-car while doing "touchdown" scenario

edit 2: speedometer bug doesn't occur with "take a cab back" scenario allowing me to complete it

 

It happened to me on Service mode and also showing two side doors open. Which is not the case.

 

speedometer and opened doors bugs happened to me at same time haha

 

Maik was not involved if you read the manual, he just offered his company for the team to work under, as it's not a DTG product.

 

lol I had no idea that maik is not involved in this project

 

It is not a bug. Answered by William here:

It is off when you spawn in and you have to turn it on.

You'll also need to re-enable it whenever the MCB has been open if I remember correctly.

 

The train was already running as AI, it was just sat blocking the route after it's scheduled departure time so I parked my train (the one spawned in) and took over the AI as there was no driver.
