    As much as I really enjoyed my time with the games, it's filled with bug that I cannot understand how it went through QA.

    I'm not gonna detail every single bug I've had, but the most recent one was in the Scenario "Empty Evening" (Southeastern High Speed). After doing everything and parking the train in the depot. My next task was to change "End" which I did after shutting down the train. Went to the other End, did everything to start the train : Master Key - On, Reverser - Neutral, Close Doors, Reverser - Forward, Reset DRA, Apply Power. At this last step, No matter what I did, the BC gauge wouldn't empty and wouldnt move forward.

    I think it as something to with using Keyboard shortcut and the mouse to control stuff at the same time. Multiple time I had "de-sync" issue, where, for example, I would apply brake with the keyboard but it wouldn't do anything until I use the mouse to "reset" the brake et redo it.

    Playing PC - On Xbox Game Pass.

    Hello poudigne - thank you for raising this issue with us, I appreciate your patience while we work on the launch issues.

    I have passed this into our internal teams to diagnose.

    Welcome to the forus and I hope you can still enjoy your experience while we iron out the bugs :)

    Here's an example, in the Scenarios "Highspeed run". I followed all the instruction at the start to start the train. I was at the step to "Give power accelerate". Which I did but the train stood still.
    My BC is at 0.0 whichj means brake are disengaged correctly.
    Im currently at Power 4, and you can see that 0 Amp are being sent to the train, and the speed is, obviously, 0.0 Km/h.

    Maybe i'm doing something wrong, which then means the scenarios has missing steps.

    You didn't mention the part where you have to select the right power mode and press pan up shoes down twice, maybe even 3 since I had to do that sometimes. Did you do that? It's mentioned in the tutorial too

    Yes I forgot to mention, and yes I did. I also had to press "CTRL" (the train button, not keyboard key) for 2 sec.

    I'm taking a break from the game until I see a patch note, cause I restarted the scenario due to the train refusing to stop working after a while (or something straight up at the start, but didn't count those try). I went into a scenario where you can do whatever you want (only objective is to walk to a marker to end the scenario), and first train I jump in the Brake Cylinder gauge was stuck at 15 PSI no matter what I did.

    Just to follow on from rennekton#1349's post above, was the line light showing and did you release DRA? The scenario works on PC Steam, as per screenshot below.

    I cannot reproduce any issues in both "Empty evening" and "Highspeed run". There are also no missing steps when setting up/shutting down the Javelin or 465/9. I assume that in "Empty evening" something was forgotten to turn off in the first cab. Also in "Highspeed run" something is wrong with poudigne, his main reservoir shows 7.6 bar while the main reservoir of Veryfatbloke and me shows 8.3 bar and we both have no problems to set the Javelin in motion. Unfortunately, you can't see Line Volt, MCB/VCB and DRA on your screenshot. It would have been interesting if and which of these lights would have been lit. Seeing the blue powering indicator in the left monitor next to the clock would also have been helpful.

    EDIT: I also play via Steam.

    Yes I had released the DRA. Indeed, every step were working in the intro as I was able to start the train a couple time. Sometime the bug happened later after stopping at station. I was breaking, and push the button too long and it activated the emergency brake. I don't how or why it happens, but I definitly have issues on multiple train when playing mixed with keyboard and mouse. I will try to reproduce the bug later tonight and record a video.

    Here's a video of the train in "Free Switching" that has brakes that doesn't disengage (and doesn't seem effective at all)

    (Ignore the fact that I forgot to turn on the Gen Field)

    No generator field, no movement! This cannot be ignored, also your loco is set to trail and you forgot to cut-in the brakes,
    that's why your BP is at zero. You should definitely spend a longer time with the tutorials.
