What Are The Little Things That Annoy You Most?

i agree

 

Not showing the stations that the service calls at under "select a service", would like to know this beforehand

 

Going into photo mode and your character disappears from the cab

 

I understand scenery building is no easy feat, if it was we would all be doing it and the world of TSW would be massive! but a bugbear of mine are the small branch lines that get left off DLC or where other sections of track was laid ( in PC there is a file that allows us to see hidden track) which could add further variety, gameplay and a non-linear options yet gets completely left off..
Frankfurt - Fulda comes to mind with the additional track laid including the underground section for S-Bahn, the short St Albans branch on WCML STH (Which is only six miles), Toton yards on MML and nothing against our latest release/remaster but the short branch lines of the GWE....

 

I assumed that was a license issue the first time I saw that a CTX loco had spawned with a train entirely made up of CTX cars. The lack of weathering is also a license thing. Those license agreements must be quite something to read.

 

Here’s a few from me…

- Cloudy weather turning texturing into something from BVE4
- Poor fps with CC liveries
- Texture blurring on B2C and WCMLS (no patches on the horizon either, am I mistaken?)
- Tail light errors on 10 car Azumas and Class 66s

 

1. Unreadable layers list with dlc requirments. Could be more user friendly.
2. Passangers behaviour.

 

I hate that, especially when they're wrong too. I'm looking at you Pfälzische Ludwigsbahn.

 

The inability to use liveries you made in livery creator in the TSW editor.

I made a FGW Plain Blue 153 livery in the livery editor and wanted to use it on my timetable, however I cannot export the weathering shown in game too.

 

I agree with a lot of the points being made. Two of my biggest gripes are that headlights usually aren't strong enough and that the reflective boards were removed, making it way more difficult to drive at night.

To illustrate this, here is a comparison between Frankfurt S-bahn and Dresden-Chemnitz both at 4 AM and with the same 146.2:

 

Sound popping.

 

Sound popping and distortion especially on consoles. Also snow kick up flashing as you drive past other locos.

 

- Blurry textures on console
- General consistency throughout
- Most passengers wearing hats which most of the time doesn't match the rest of their outfit which simply looks ridiculous
- AI trains having passengers lights not switched on at night
- AI trains not switching to tail lights after ending a service

 

Apart from feeling like beeing a beta tester in general...

A) seeing disused or unused platforms (like on fast tracks in GB) having passengers on it.
B) seeing passengers on a platform where no train is scheduled to stop within half an hour or so.
C) probably be GB freight trains having flashing emergency light on (Bakerloo
D) AI trains always running at 100% speed and not following signalling rules (not even the obvious ones)
E) AI not stopping whipers in a covered station and not even after quitting service (like in London Victoria all whipers are on at the buffers...)

And yeah that one is annoying me too!

 

I have a very incomplete list of unfixed bugs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1W7AmfxQzcX5HbXXpqFEJAsp36SpDzdulac2fAs8Xt1k/edit?gid=0#gid=0

So I'll say that - and remember, post bugs you find in the thread linked in my signature!

 

B) is actually kinda realistic since people like showing up early to make sure to get there train (me as well)

 

Actually, I'd say the opposite (people turning up late or after their train has left) would be more realistic. The amount of times I've had people ask me for a train they've just missed or have a few seconds to get is ridiculous.

 

OT I know but that reminds me of yesterday when I was on the bus and people kept trying to board as the driver was trying to leave. Twice he had to re-open the doors to let people on.
The other week someone tried to get on after the bus had started reversing. Driver leant out of the window and said "sorry I've left you're too late"

 

I am notoriously early for most forms of travel. Trains are at least half an hour... don't even get me started with flights... lol

 

Having to enable safety systems at the start of every service.

 

A toggle/quality of life feature that needs to be added in TSW7. I find this annoying too, not a quick task when you’re on console.

 

The layers list is a complete mess, no idea how they thought that was suitable.

But the biggest little thing is those micro stutters, you'd have thought we'd have gotten used to them by now...........

 

This is an additional memory training so as not to forget the place in each locomotive where they are included.

 

Lol
Pedagogy is repetition !

 

And sometimes, this demonstrates the "standardization" of locomotive cabs, which helps retrain drivers more quickly. But yes, it's annoying to have to turn them on every time. Especially if they're turned on in a different cab. And I'm too lazy to reach for the keyboard for fast movement

 

I'm from Switzerland, if I am half an hour early for my train I take the train half an hour earlier lmao!

But I agree for long distance / high speed trains with reserved seats: If I need to catch a TGV at Lyon I always plan to arrive with my connecting train at least half an hour before derparture, but at home I mostly arrive 10 to 5 minutes before departure (5 because for some tracks you need at least 4 minutes to get there).

 

Lack of livery substitution on freight cars, especially American ones. A US freight train is a multicolored jumble of paint schemes.

 

I’d compile and publish information on the layers for free if DTG gave me the exact info.

So frustrating that no documentation exists (for recent routes anyway) with definitive lists of what layers add what to the game

 

A new Timetable is needed every time a Train is released that cannot be set as a Substitute. This is because the game can only exchange trains with the same number of Carriages. For example, the Class 313 on East Coastway.
