I'd like to have the closest service to the local time of day preselected in timetable mode. I would also like to be able to see the local time. It would be even better to see the local weather and whether it is day or night for each service. It would be nice if I could change weather settings in the middle of a timetable service and check the local time and weather in game. Especially if I don't like the live weather for some reason.
Not sure if anyone is having this issue or if it’s just a thing missing from the game, but does live weather not account for rain? like whatsoever? It’s currently a downpour in New York and Boston because of the Nor’easter and these routes are dry as a bone. I didn’t pay attention to any pre-release stuff about the feature so for all i know it could just be something not accounted for. Series X.
Same on PS5, no rain on any route. I've gone back to dynamic weather, at least you get different weather patterns. I live in Saltburn where the tees valley route starts and it's been raining in Saltburn but not in game.
Yesterday, I loaded into Fulda on Kassel - Wurzburg, and it was mostly clear. Then I hopped into Fulda on Frankfurt - Fulda, and it was completely overcast. This leads me to believe only one METAR source per route is determining the weather for the whole route, since only the forecast for Frankfurt at that time was completely overcast.
Alex did a q and a on Discord yesterday. Matt was on there too. I asked about live weather and never seeing any rain. Matt said he was going to have a discussion with the weather app team to how it actually works and how accurate it is.
