The usual method of switching between direct brakes and driver's brakes (X button) doesn't seem to work. The only way to operate the direct brake appears to be by interacting with the handle itself, which can be frustrating when trying to control the loco with the controller, particularly if using an external camera view.
That's annoying. Presumably the third party devs haven't spent much time playing TSW on a PS4 so will have overlooked many of the basic control systems we take for granted. Seems like it would be an easy fix though - have you raised a support ticket so there's an official record of it?
I second this! It's incredibly challenging just trying to maintain a speed of 10 km/h, or slow down in increments when using direct brakes. I'll start using driver brakes manually though. Hope this gets corrected!
