    Loving the functionality so far, really is a game changer for immersion.
    Issues/bugs I’ve found so far…..

    1. liveries can’t be selected on lots of things, or at all on pre-made formations. Eg steam locos, locos with coaches that you wish to add to. Seems to be an issue with splitting a fixed formation into its parts breaks livery comparability. Eg all the steam locos are now loco + tender and have no liveries available, gwe hst, rhtt, class 101

    2. missing rail vehicles. Various missing rail vehicles including INI hoppers, fowler 4f

    3. livery designer/spawning broken on at least GWE hst sets, can’t edit liveries, if you select a livery to spawn you get the coaches in livery but the power cars standard, but turn jet black if you move camera further away

    4. random ue4 crashes to desktop, especially when trying to edit a formation you have already started. Seems worse if the formation you are trying to edit has a locomotive in it. If it’s just coaches/wagons it is less likely.

    5. lots of duplicated rail vehicles for the same route. Eg there’s at least 3 flying Scotsman mk2a coach versions, all with different names but listed for the PBD route code and all with same livery

    6. can we please have livery support for individual mk3 coaches, they obviously have livery designer support as you can edit them in a set. Even if we could use coaches individually with liveries we have made/downloaded for a full hst set. Also a buckeye unlock function is really needed now you have released the mk3s as standalone coaches.

    7. doors won’t open across different coaching stock. The first coaches behind the loco will open the doors with the command/open door button, but as soon as there is a different type of stock everything behind this won’t open the doors with the button

    8. the move layer? Not sure what to call it icon (up and down arrow) in the formation is always greyed out. Awkward if you put a vehicle in the wrong place (which happens a lot the designer sometimes randomly puts a vehicle in the middle or at the wrong end) you have to delete then try and add it in the right place.

    9. vehicles with matching couplers not always available. Ie 37/7 Epx there’s no emu’s listed after you select it. Conversely, some weird stuff will connect. Eg back to back jubilees with no tender, essentially a jubilee double fairlie! Was hilarious and blisteringly fast but quickly melted the fusible plugs!!

    will update with anything else I find with more testing

    UPDATE

    10. If you make a formation without a loco, it seems to be pot luck if it shows up in the free roam spawn menu. Made a mixed rake of vacuum braked stock, showed up with a TTC brake van at the front, but with a 5 plank wagon at the front it doesn't show up anywhere. Resorted to putting a class 47 on the front and having to delete it

    11. Misslabelled vehicles. Theres one called PFT 16 ton wagon, which spawns a 5 plank wagon in the formation designer. nowhere to be found anywhere else. Only 16 ton wagon is the unfitted mineral wagon from SOS

    12. PBD Railtour Mk1 BG corridoor connections broken. when connected to any other mk1 coach the corridor extends down the whole of the coaches connected to the BG, and out of the bottom of the coach. Edit all mk1 bgs with dual brakes do this. I’ve not seen it on the vac only bgs

    It's ok, considering DTG are money grabbing [EDIT - Jan - Insulting], it'll be fixed in TSW5 instead.
