Other Nahverkehr Dresden 185.5 Issues

The new feautures on the loco and the wagons is a great addition (P/G mode and distributor cut-off). But I and others encountered many bugs with this loco.

Issues:
- Parking brake light not working (so you don't know if the parking brake is on or not)
- After selecting G brake mode on autorack wagons, train was not able to release brakes even after waiting for a while. (Uncoupling and coupling again sometimes works)
- 'AI' locomotives and in certain scenarios 185.5 locomotives don't have any pantographs up yet they are running.
- (Minor Detail) Distributor on freight cars show incorrectly; vertical must be open and horizontal/diagonal must be closed, in the sim it is now the opposite,
P.S. it is correctly set on the BR101 passenger wagons

 

G brake mode is bugged. Same happens if you change the switch in the cab. For now, just put up with (inaccurate) P mode

 

I found a bug that the 'AI' 185.5 locomotives don't have any pantographs up yet they are running.

 

yes

 

Added it to the list, thanks!

 

Not only the AI but also on the “Chemical Plant Zone” scenario, no matter how many times I tried to level up the panto it won’t work it’s like I was driving a kind of Traxx Last Mile like the Vectron LM, anyway you can see the 185.5 is working as I put 45 Kn of force:

 

Just a notion- have you tried setting the voltage in the left MFD screen? This is a feature the international 185.5 has that the Germany/Austria-only 185.2 doesn't (note there are multiple pantos on the roof).

 

I haven’t touched it because using other voltages won’t make the locomotive move but only the OBB one and nope the panto won’t raise up but it will still move

 

Try raising the DC panto and then switching back to the DB standard

 

It’s impossible to raise other pantograph and I tried it even if it doesn’t move and while going back to DB still nothing

 

Added incorrect distributor setting (minor detail) to the list
