    Hey Dovetail

    I would very much like if you would add the possibility to edit scenarios and schedules (and possibly share those) to the game.
    Such an editor already exists in the TS and it would vastly increase the amount of time you can spend with the game.

    Best regards

    Alright, nice to hear that you are working on it!
    Then i would only like to add, that the possibility of creating and using your own 24h schedules should be implemented in the game.
    And of course i'm interested when the editor will be released according to your plans?

    Hi William,
    The editor hasn't been released yet and will be available on PC only.

    I can understand why it would be PC only, and I'm fine with that. But, perhaps DTG could look at releasing some of the best scenarios to consoles.

    This might not work if the timetables are too complex. For some DLC like GWE DTG release a console friendly timetable (with some services removed). This prevents performance issues on consoles.

    Yeah, so I guess it would be up to DTG to decide which are the "best" scenarios, and only pick ones that would be OK on consoles. Perhaps "best" is too specific a word - I should have said "releasing selected scenarios to consoles" :)

    You need to remember the difference between "service" and "scenario"
    Services can be complex with timing and replacement consist issues etc. Scenarios should be simpler as they don't change and substitution needn't be a thing at all

    What you say is true and I have used many tricks to write scenarios that appear busier than they really are on TS20XX.
    But I think there will be a limit to what a console can handle and this may limit realistic scenarios. Only time and the Editor will tell.
