Over the last few days I have done (relatively) extensive testing of the rolling stock that comes with HBL. I will list each point I have tested...
I'm currently in process of testing the physics of the rolling stock in HHL and there are some good stuff but unfortunately a lot of bad stuff as...
We actually already have steel coil cars in the game: The Shimmns wagons. I still wouldn't mind an uncovered steel coil car. If so I would really...
I think it was a mix between that thread and the British OLE thread, and I somehow misremembered it as a thread about the Cathcart Circle hehe.
I agree on all accounts. The most important things for me in this "sub" DLC (Riesa-Dresden) is improved sounds for the BR143,BR146 and BR185,...
I'm probably making some enemies here but I feel like Riesa-Dresden would still have great value with all the branch lines if it was released...
ghawk2005 I noticed your thread mentioning this. I haven't had time to check any UK stock except the Class 377 and the Class 37, so I can't speak...
Agreed. Just think if this was prototypical behaviour. Basically you'd grind down the brakes/wheels in no time. EDIT: By the way. I do remember...
Currently several routes have bugs/faults in the Ks signal behavior when approaching a red signal. On at least parts of HRR (Essen - Bochum) and...
I think this issue can be solved by having points/medals tied to only the default configuration. So if you change anything you only get the...
I think this effect differs a lot between the types of trains you use but in many modern high speed trains or locomotives the isolation is so good...
Chaos incarnate. I like that. If I was a super villain that would probably be my superpower ;)
Haha, actually I'm tempted to buy it again. 2 hours is a bit short to get a good feel for the route so I may have been a bit quick.
Hi Matt. Thanks for responding! I will report my findings for Hamburg as soon as I'm able to test it.
TLDR: I wish for DTG to implement a feature in the timetable service selection where players can modify each vehicle in the consist in terms of...
I have mentioned in previous threads that the brake system for German freight trains is unrealistic with regards to the timings and how the HL...
I'm imagining the sound of a medium rare steak sliding on the rails :D Jokes aside. Positives: PZB and LZB aural alarms sound good (to my...
Thanks! I agree about the online sheet. I'll probably make a google spreadsheet and link it. I have bad news about the driver brake cut-out...
I hadn't noticed this before but the brake cut-in button is modeled in the BR185.2 which means I can accurately test the brake force of the wagons...
The service mod for HMA has push-pull config. I'll test and report back. EDIT: So, I just tested accelerating up to 30 km/h with both the...
I think you have to turn on the ZDS multiple traction switch at the back of the cab for the rear locomotive to contribute. I'm pretty sure I never...
Driving the BR101 in HHL it seemed like the AFB was more aggressive (and late) in responding to speed limits compared to before in HRR. For...
Thank you!
'depends with what speed we hit the magnet protecting "distant [90] indicator"' I know that if I'm approaching a speed reduction below 100 km/h...
I just tested the x20 Shimmns Vans A and B in loaded and empty configurations. The listed train weights imply that both empty and loaded trains...
Thanks breblimator ! I've updated the table above with my findings of the Laaers wagons (the BR185.2 + 11 Laaers consist to be exact). The wagons...
From my previous threads where I tested the physics of German freight trains I presumed that all the German freight wagons brake with the same...
Alexander L. I noticed that the weights of the IC wagons have been altered in the timetable services for HMA (to more realistic weights). Is this...
Oh, I thought you meant the difference between VB and SB. Now, I fully agree with you.
One explanation is that HHL in TSW2 is modelled for a past time period. This explanation is strengthened by the fact that BR101 is used on the...
Sorry for (maybe) being slow but are you saying that in real life the emergency brake application time should be equal to the full service...
Amazing work, Alexander! Is Muff's formation editor publicly available? I am interested in swapping some freight consists out for ones that are...
I think what ShaneS89 is trying to say (I hope I'm not being presumptuous in reiterating your points) is that on consoles there is a cost/penalty...
I think the relevancy of bringing up other developers is that in TS2021 the game doesn't live or die based on DTG's performance which is very...
Cynical, but your description seems to be the one that best fits reality.
I think people are missing one important thing. It is usually cheaper to prevent bugs than to fix them. I'm sure countless books have been...
Imagine the work you've spent (hopefully) a lot of time on, is consistently rated as mediocre or even poor by players. That's gotta be rough. But...
I had time to try out the BR101 timetable before I refunded yesterday (I've described my criticism in another thread), and it was sad to see the...
I bought and tested HHL yesterday, to see whether they had improved the physics (in terms of traction and braking). The traction physics seem to...
I think you are wrong. It is absolutely appropriate to call DTG incompetent. Maybe not a specific person on DTG (because we don't know who is...
I see what you did there ;) But yeah, I would love for them to include the system with Rush Hour. I think DTG could implement many random...
Something I have been thinking about for a while, especially when arriving slightly late to a station, is that the passenger boarding could be...
I don't know how it works IRL but I agree with you that a system that requires drivers memorizing speed limits and their locations is incredibly...
First I would say that there is more to physics realism then adhesion but perhaps you are more focused on UK rolling stock. In that case I do...
To be fair, DB628 did also say driving physics. I challenge you to name another TSW locomotive that has as realistic physics as the BR101.
You've seen this in BR101 specifically?
Haha. Thanks for the tip!
It would have been nice with an achievement for completing all the BR101 timetable services :cool: Not sure what I will do in TSW2 now until the...
You can release train brake during door closing sequence so that only loco brake is applied after doors have closed, then when you apply power AFB...
It's weird because sometimes there are 2 signals showing Ks2 but other times only one signal is Ks2 the following is Hp0. Usually it goes like...
