A very big thank you for the quick reply! The only thing i was doing wrong was putting the reverser in NEUTRAL position instead of the OFF position. The locomotive is absolutely a masterpiece! again thank you . Αnd slow gear gives a big acceleration boost especially in starting the train and generally low speeds. at higher speeds the faster acceleration diminishes as it should!
The 218 itself has disappeared from the 218 Maintalbahn timetable. Layer reads as not owned even though I have it installed and none appear as AI. This is on PS5.
More like a suggestion than actual feedback, but... The E94 and some of the newer freight cars have got this neat little feature, to be able to climb below the buffer for accessing the coupling: This would be a neat thing to have on the 218s as well! I rather enjoy it, adds quite a bunch of immersion and makes coupling/decoupling procedures feel more real
Yes, I love this new feature too Of course, it had to come from TSG, which is the developer that always cares the most about innovating and implementing new and ingenious things.
That's not really a new feature. It's there since years. I might have forgotten to activate it for the 218. I will check that.
The Class 20 was the first one I did it on, which was a result of during the Class 31 preview stream the streamer fell between the buffers on the wagons and got trapped, so after that I always try and provide a way out! That and so you don't have to walk around the entire train just to go to the other side (and in some cases it allows you to more easily uncouple/couple).
Thank you all for the clarification. As the first time I noticed this feature was in Mittenwaldbah I mistakenly thought that TSG had been implemented.
DBB BR 218 ocean blue / ivory Using the indicator dimmer rotates the timetable light switch into the driver's desk, both cabs are affected.
Due to an update of my 3D software after the initial release of the 218, all skinning weights got messed up. I had to manually rebind evvery movable part like switches, handles, needles, etc. when I rebuilt the existing cab for the blue-beige version. All fixes will come live with the next update. Hopefully I didn`t miss any more tiny part.
