Very interesting regarding the local speed restrictions! Unfortunately for us, it get's trickier when the Vmax of the train is far lower than the...
Previously the yellow needle was incorrectly showing the "EQ reservoir pressure" rather than the brake pipe pressure. I think this is fixed in the...
I have been in contact with two very knowledgeable people in the German railway industry, regarding both driving freight trains and also the...
Like I said, the BR143 was not the intended traction for that train, but it's nice that the possibility is there :) Regarding the train in the...
The 2700t "monster train" was actually based on this train: [MEDIA] with some slight modifications (partly because the actual wagons used in the...
There are a ”few” more freight services being added soon. I’ll have to update the list of trains in the thread. You can however find them in the...
Because if DTG (or another developer) has to prioritize, I want them to know what the community prioritizes. If you could select everything the...
There are many things that make you feel more or less immersed in the simulated world of TSW. It's hard to both define immersion and to name the...
You're video lacks a timestamp and the length of the video is over 3 hours long, i.e. most people won't sift through that. You can redirect people...
A "pro" tip for those that don't want to wait 10+ minutes but at the same time want realistic waiting times: when you're stopped waiting for the...
I use Hilfssteuerung (AFB to "On" and then use auxiliary control to notch up) when accelerating to low speed limits (40-60 km/h) when starting...
"Good enough" will ultimately depend on the Fahrplan/Bremstafel. As a rule of thumb, wagons that can run loaded at 120 km/h will have a load...
The overspeed is prototypical on shorter trains with a high setting on the force/Zugkraft selector. Regarding the dynamic brakes, this is not...
Iirc the old BR143 does not have a brake key. Another way to verify it is the new BR143 (and this check is 100% accurate) is to go into the engine...
That doesn't make sense to me since the BrH is literally the quantity used to measure brake performance. If only the brakes are what limits the...
Based on my earlier post that I quoted above the BR185 + Laaers train should probably be able to achieve 120 km/h on the main line and 110 km/h...
I vehemently disagree. If the real vehicle sounds like a croaking frog, then I want the TSW vehicle to sound like a croaking frog ;)
[ATTACH]
Are you referring to the quote "For wagons carrying the * * and * * * signs, RUs shall define the necessary rules for the correct formation of the...
Yes, you're correct. I didn't catch that. "***: Maximum load in t (tonnes) for wagons authorised to run in trains up to 120 km/h with a brake...
If it contains "SS" at the end of the name it can run at 120 km/h in a loaded configuration (not necessarily at max gross weight though). Only one...
I'm quite sure. Don't ask me how I know though :D EDIT: It's easy to test though. Take the Habbiins-train and perform a brake test with the...
Hehe, gotcha :)
Wait, now I'm confused :D Are you saying that in Lange Lok, no matter what the BrH is, the PZB Zugart is forced to U?
If all of the wagons are set to "G", for example on older/special wagons that only have G-brakes, then you need to use PZB U. EDIT: In this...
For those that might not know where all the relevant switches are, I thought I'd describe where to find them below. Locomotive GPR-selector. If...
Technically all the information needed should be in the original post, described in the example trains, because the example trains just so happen...
I never answered your question before. Fortunately for the current version of the timetable the example trains I listed in the OP should cover...
Good work! Unfortunately I don't have access to the Vmax for different BrH (or Mbr for different Vmax), for freight trains, on the route. If that...
Gotcha. I think you're right about how TSW measures the distance. Otherwise it would mean that basically every locomotive is almost 2 meters too...
Not this take again... DTG is not a clone of N people that are distributed across different projects and can all perform the same task. If DTG is...
Are you sure about this? The BR143 has 16640 mm "Länge über Puffer" or "length over buffers".
The length numbers printed are buffer to buffer. I don't think this is how the length is measured in the game/briefing window. Regarding the mass...
I forgot to add something. I have a passenger train "Fahrplan" for the route. On the section that includes the avoiding line, these are the...
The default state of the locomotives used in passenger traffic on DRA is R-brake. For the BR185 the default state is P-brake and for the *freight*...
That doesn’t work on the new one and for good reason. When you braked the train, the pressure monitoring locked the traction and to reset it the...
The "Anfahr Bremse" and "Bremse Überbrücken" functions are prototypical with one caveat, the "Bremse Überbrücken" function also disables pressure...
Oh boy, your first paragraph really resonates with me. When hunting down the information regarding the BR143 I was in contact with two BR143...
With computer algorithms you are "allowed" to take many more variables into account since lowly humans don't have to decipher the tables :D I...
Yep. I reported the mis-match of the captions to DTG, before. I actually got some new information from drivers and apparently the Bremse...
Thanks for the tables but I'm a bit skeptical regarding what you said about distances above 1000m not being taken into account. On the avoiding...
Regarding the autogenerated times this seems to be an issue isolated to DRA because I have not seen it before (maybe HBK had it, can't remember)....
You'll never see me advocating for that. Like I said, I want the timetables to be based on reality and the AI trains to behave realistically.
Doesn't sound like a problem to me, just sounds like it's realistic :) As long as TSW timetables are like the real timetables there will be a...
No problem! I mean, you were pretty much right about everything, I just wanted to clarify that you don't need to wait for 0.9 bar or 0.0 bar etc,...
Separate names with a comma.
