    This thread will open once the game is released.

    Hello folks,

    This is the official master feedback thread for the Simple Controls feature, introduced with Train Sim World 7.

    Please keep all discussions related only to feedback, and include the game platform you are using in any comments. Off-topic messages might be deleted or moved to the appropriate threads.

    Make sure to also check our extensive TSW 7 Support Pages, which include solutions to many common issues.


    When providing feedback, please always add the following details if possible:
    • Platform (i.e.: PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S)
    • Service/Scenario played when the issue occurred.
    • Repeatability. How often does this issue occur?
    • Images/Videos of the issue occurring.

    Here are a few examples of how to best provide feedback and what to avoid:

    Helpful issue reports

    • "PC (Steam), Service XYZ, the AI train at X remained stationary, blocking the route. This has happened 3 out of 3 attempts. Screenshot attached."
    • "Xbox Series X: The station announcement audio at Y is much quieter than other stations. I've noticed it on multiple services."
    • "PS5 - Passengers do not board at Z Station. I was able to reproduce this every time."
    Positive feedback (also welcome!)
    • "PC: Really enjoying the scenery between A and B. The route looks fantastic, especially at sunset."
    • "PS5: The train handling feels great, and the services are a lot of fun to drive."
    • "The ambient audio around the stations is excellent and really adds to the atmosphere."
    Less helpful feedback
    • "It's broken."
    • "Fix this."
    • "The route is bad."
    • "Game crashed." (without any details about where, when, or how it happened)

    The more details you provide, whether reporting an issue or sharing something enjoyable, the more helpful your feedback will be to the team.

    As always, thank you for your feedback.

    All the best,
    Jan

    Have to agree with the upcoming signals being shown and have to say add the upcoming speed changes too. I think kids would love these simple controls but speed and signals need to be added (even if they can be ignored) to add a sense of realism before moving up to more advanced controls. Thanks.
