OSD as a route is underwhelming, but the GP9M is a great loco to drive.
Yet that hasn't stopped you from complaining about all those DLCs you allegedly haven't bought.
And on some trains, like the 166 (at least in-game), you can use the interlock to your advantage: set the controller to 2 while the doors are...
The only caveat regarding Clinchfield is that it's pretty challenging for noobs. I wouldn't tackle it until you're comfortable with Sand Patch and...
On passenger runs, the scoring system is heavily biased towards accurate stops, and loading passengers on time. 500 points each, that's a...
You're right; it would be a new challenge for DTG because I don't think they have done moving boats to date
The German route is probably the easiest, without safety systems on; but once you turn them on, it (like all German routes under PZB) becomes very...
Freight and express passenger, mostly. Anything that doesn't involve a lot of stops under the tyranny of the timetable. I particularly like slow...
I agree, but I don't think it would be an easy or quick development.
Matt has talked about wanting to implement things like random station dwell time and AI trains randomly running late, but has said that at least...
There was one, but not by that name. Instead there was a question about whether we would like to be able to play as a guard, conductor, brakeman etc.
Buying a DTG release sight unseen is poor policy.
You have a point, but the problem is more acute with German routes because it's all the same rolling stock. At least Boston-Providence brings in...
Well, yes. Exactly. A-B has been fun for quite a while, but the bloom is coming off the rose. Without innovation and variety, player ennui sets...
No risk there. The "Do you want to give up?" dialog only pops up if you physically leave the seat, not if you shift your POV to a camera.
That's a good point. UK content features a lot of MUs, but only one non-ancient locomotive (Class 66).
The layer limit is not part of the Unreal Engine, so no .ini command will affect it.
At least for now, you can't choose alt-liveries on wagons, only locomotives/MUs. Oddly, this doesn't work the same way across routes for AI...
Another feature which I think DTG could and should add is "priority of layering"- by which I mean something like already was done with SEHS: 375s...
IMHO, I think that eventually, but not any time soon, DTG will enable route merging (Matt has even said that it's on the wishlist). I doubt they...
Watching cat videos and catching up with the sports scores isn't exactly "work first." Anyone on a train serious about work is on a laptop.
Yes, exactly. Koblenz-Mainz especially the Rhine gorge north of Bingen is the really good part.
The "branch" on Sand Patch is just a spur, and only usable in one scenario.
The video explains a lot and defuses some of the wilder claims, but doesn't get around the fact that CA is indeed banning (store-bought) computers...
What in the name of all the saints do gaming computers have to do with wildfires?
As the article says, and not wrongly, the forums, the Discord, and the stream chat all cover different, and relatively small, segments of the...
It's Darwin.
This is the same state, mind you, that wants to shove all their road transportation onto the electrical grid.
Passenger accommodation started to go to hell as soon as compartments were abandoned.
:mad:
Although a train usually cannot stop within visual distance, even halving speed reduces potential impact damage by 3/4. Moreover, part of the...
When I was disporting myself as a tobacconist I was irked by customers who would obliviously jabber away on their headset phones throughout,...
Thx!
Actually, they do- but it is tied to the train completely clearing the block- and given the mile-plus length of the blocks on Sand Patch, and the...
A known bug (among many) with the save function- all locos re-set to their default starting config. Yes, it's a PITA (especially with...
What survey?
Until you sit down it's an AI loco and you can't do a thing with it.
It's a function which should have been included in HMA for certain, and possibly SKA. The DB definitely combines and de-combines consists, both...
Not worth it. I've ridden that route- it's mostly tunnels.
That may be the case in the UK, but it is definitely NOT the case in the US, where train headlights are like antiaircraft searchlights, and are...
Not killed, but certainly castrated.
Right. A 4-day, 2700 km route in TSW. Set in the 1950s or earlier, because it's not worth doing the truncated post-'62 route.
Every constant you convert to a randomized variable means additional CPU cycles = slowdown.
The CSX version is correct. It seems that Skyhook modeled the UP Hi-Ad trucks somewhat oversize, or at least a bit too tall, which raised the...
There is dynamic weather in some scenarios, but it's scripted for the scenario. Randomly changing weather in timetable mode is not yet a thing in...
Grand Central Terminal, the New York station, is not a business entity which can license anything. It's a facility owned by the Metropolitan...
However, Folkestone-Calais would be really easy for DTG to model!
I think people have different definitions of "fun." Sitting in the driver's seat doing nothing but hitting the Sifa button every thirty seconds...
That's really not indicative of anything, save that the update had been completed and begun QA as of 27 July and NEC hadn't. It says nothing about...
EA is a multibillion-dollar corporation with hundreds of lawyers on staff. Not exactly comparable.
Separate names with a comma.
