    I know this is reported before, but Sam said it was important that we keep reporting these bugs, so DTG can see that many players are having the same problems, so...

    The AFB is is faulty on the 185.2 on RSN in TSW2. When set at a certain speed (let's say 80kph) and you set the AFB to a slower speed (let's say 40 kph), the train slows down, but it doesn't stop slowing down at the newly selected speed. It will bring the train to a halt. As I use AFB almost all the time, this bug is very annoying for me. Rendering the 185.2 almost unplayable.

    Considering you had AFB working perfectly in TSW2020 and you have it working perfectly in the ICE, I take it this fix should be a very small thing. Can I expect a patch for this in the very next update?

    Ok, so the problem is that the e. brake remains applied for some time after the train speed matches the AFB speed, here some clips:

    95 -> 50 w/throttle to max

    95 -> 50 trying to release the brakes and moving the AFB and Throttle handle
    https://gameclips.io/FD1003/17bade3c-6453-450f-82e9-6af70683b17e

    80 -> 70 w/throttle to max
    https://gameclips.io/FD1003/ba9c8126-ab42-49a5-94ba-484202756fb6

    40 -> 30 w/throttle to max
    https://gameclips.io/FD1003/02e84b1e-4cc9-4a62-8243-a697d41bbf5b

    Just a quick copy-pasta from my old thread. Also sent a support ticket at the time.

    I hope they didn't mess the 146 up, we need some variety on SKA, and halving the number of new services due to faulty AFB would be awful

    Freight wagons brakes once fixed, now seems to be broken again. They even preserved the bugs on this route that at some point got a fix.
    Maybe could be related to AFB brakes not releasing correctly

    It's a fundamental AFB problem, it continues to input a brake application after the train speed is lower than the selected AFB speed, it's not just taking a long time to release them, it's actively commanding a brake application past the required speed.
