Obviously it's a check box yes/no for electric compatible or not and the third rail/ohl is visual. But why does this part of track have the tick but no graphical representation? Because i don't think it should be.
Interesting, I thought TSW was much more fussy when it came to the correct electrification or in this case electrification at all. For example, I can't get the 72TS to run on the IOW unless it's in the scenario maker with 'off the rails' set to on.
Likewise, you cannot go back to the sixties or seventies on the DC Lines in WCMLS and run 1938 or 1972 stock north of Harrow and Wealdstone.
I seem to remember back in tsw4 I spawned a 387 on ecml and it wouldn't drive with the panto up, but bringing the shoes down it went just fine...
Is that one of those new battery trains? All joking aside I'm guessing that leads to a portal so the track is electrified so AI trains can reach it.
where on the route is that? Given that the whole main wcml route is electrified, that looks very much like outside the normally playable area
There are pedals under every seat, and all passengers work as a team, and quieter routes sails unfurl from ports on the roof
I don't know if that's entirely correct. I was testing the Class 802 on runs between Reading and Paddington and vice versa, and when the OHL run out at Airport Junction, the 802 lost all power and had to change to diesel on the run. I'm not saying all routes are like that, but GWE certainly didn't allow the electric mode to operate beyond Airport Junction. On SEHS I don't think the exclusively third rail units like the 465 and 375/9 can operate on the AC overhead equipment. Maybe the examples I give only work on those particular routes, who knows?
This is just pure speculation with no idea how the inner workings of the games code works (oh wait it doesn't) at all, (and someone will probably prove me wrong, which is fair), but I suspect that AI ignore physics and have a permanent off the rails mode applied to them. Not only this 323 but you can see AI 801s running just fine around the Fife Circle in the Skyhook 158 timetable.
No, me neither. Well I do know, someone ticked the electric box, but I don't know why, or if that is accurate and they just didn't bother with the visual paraphernalia.
