    I noticed that in TSW5, the objective completed score in some services (mainly ECS) are less than TSW4, which means these services are now impossibe to get Platinum. We know that in TSW3, tsome service were impossible to get gold due to scoring issue, would the same issue happened again? Or it's just a change in scoring system but DTG forgot to change the score needed to get platinum? Here are an example.

    5N25 Neilston Turnback Sdg to Neliston Cathcart Cricle 2024
    750AP to get platinum
    TSW4 (Safety System on)
    Max objective completed score 750
    Stop score with all bonus: 240
    In total: 990
    Can Get Platinum

    TSW5 (Safety System on)
    Max objective completed score 500
    Stop score with all bonus: 240
    In total: 740
    Can't Get Platinum

    Like 5N25, some others services in Cathcart Cricle 2024 (mainly ECS) are also unable to get platinum due to less objective completed score. However, those non-ECS services are normal. I don't know whether it's a change in scoring system or just a bug like the bug that prevent getting gold in TSW3. But if it's a bug, I hope DTG can fix it since it can ruin someone's gameplay experience.

    Turn on safety systems and you will get bonus points that might kick you over the edge. You are not meant to be able to score platinum without safety systems turned on but it seems some services do allow it.

    Edit it seems that the Cathcart services don't count the safety systems, probably because its such an old route that came out during the reign of TSW2.
