How strange that people are complaining about shoplifting (the PIS boards) but not about murder (the unrepaired, totally bollixed-up signaling...
I also notice that in the scenario Change at Jamaica, the signals happily give me a Proceed Clear (at 80 mph) when entering a block occupied by a...
That's bullcrap. I always hated this stupid route, and I refuse to drive under Magic Speed Limits cast by an invisible wizard.
Again: shoplifting is not murder. Are you seriously equating a PIS with an inaccurate format to using British and American trains in the...
Didn't you know? Programming is magic. Wave a wand, perfectly represented PIS appears. All you have to do is care.
We have moved from one state of criminality (murder) to another state of criminality (shoplifting) You are seriously positing that all deviations...
Could somebody please explain where LIRR hides its speed limits? I don't mean the in-cab traffic-speed system, I mean the hard track limits (no,...
You think that matters to our collection of spoiled little children? WE WANT IT! WE MUST HAVE IT!
Making something new always requires more man-hours. That means either more men or more hours, or both.
Does "caring" conjure up more staff? Does "caring" add more hours to the day?
It's not quite so subjective as that: expectations which do not take into account the available resources are necessarily going to be unrealistic....
Cold beans from the tin... How much have I had to drink?
Again: you think Adam's little team had the time or resources to program a whole new PIS routine from scratch? Of course it's borrowed- I'm...
Oh, so Adam's team didn't program an entire new PIS routine different from the existing one. Shoot me now. While we're whingeing, we could bring...
If they're "completely incorrect," for the life of me I can't see how. Wrong number of dots used to form the letters?
Well, the topic has shifted a bit from what it was. Then we were talking about 100% bug-free releases, the effective impossibility of which I was...
BTW, I like that you've reproduced the sign outside. When will this be available for D/L?
Works for me
Also, apparently my legs have grown longer every time I sit down in an airline seat.
Because either the external camera clips, or they turn it off. The third option, leaving the camera usable outside the tunnel as we saw in the...
I certainly appreciate synthetic.angel's work on the Bakerloo bug, which represents a breakthrough and apparently has pointed DTG in the right...
That would be rather amusing- like hitching a thoroughbred racehorse to an oxcart
Fair enough- but then you also have to factor in the time required to accelerate back to line speed/vmax afterwards. Up to, say, 80 from 70 is no...
Quite so. The files are there; but the loading-screen routine is only showing one of the contest winners alongside the DTG splashes.
TS20xx isn't available on console at all
There is a casual mode. Don't turn safety systems on.
PZB U for every loaded train is excessive, and unrealistic
I'm reading that as a 111: blue below, white (ivory) above, front only raked down to windscreen level, multiple grilles/windows.
Because it's a lot easier to brake from 100 to 70 than 100 to 55.
The HMA platform PIS system reads the service off the schedule, as do at least the S-Bahn trains. They all read correctly S3 or S4, together with...
Damned if they do and damned if they don't. For how long have players been complaining about unrealistically sparse timetables, empty platforms,...
You shouldn't be doing 120 anyway, unless you are pulling empties or containers (which should be easy enough to slow down). All the German...
At least with regard to the 363, this apparently changed recently. You can now select alt-liveries for the 363 in Timetable mode. Sadly, like...
The 700s are owned by Cross London Trains Ltd., which is a joint venture of Siemens and 3i Infrastructure PLC, a venture-capital fund....
Yes, it's a regional thing. Precisely because of the advent of various operating companies securing the contracts for S-bahn services, and the...
No.
Thameslink, Southern & Great Northern is a single rail operating franchise, currently awarded to Govia Thameslink Railway. The Thameslink,...
True; but Nightjet Tauruses aren't painted red, they're blue with red and silver trim
They're both diesels, and neither takes power from anywhere. The difference is the use of a DC generator vs an AC alternator - the same...
The only problem with it being a 111 is that I don't believe any of them were ever painted all-blue: just beige-over-ocean blue, and later all...
A few minutes??????????
That one is notorious, because of the slippery conditions. If you start as designed, you can't go above Run 3 without breaking traction and...
Wrong. More gross revenue (maybe) more slowly, less net, because costs skyrocket. You think QA is free? You think delayed releases cost nothing?
You really think DTG can keep a route in development for 15 months, and stay in business? To cover a 150% increase in production time, DTG would...
I agree the description sounds most like a 110 or faster 112 (formerly E 10 and E 10.12), from the slightly pointed nose, the diamond pantos, the...
That would be Clinchfield, the current record-holder at 62 miles.
AFAIK, the Liberty has no services at all; it hasn't begun revenue runs and may still be out in Colorado. (Besides, it's ugly as a warthog)
True enough, but formerly they had room for all of them: the Railshot screen, one or two adverts, and the four previous contest winners. Now the...
I think for me Dresden has the most gameplay potential, since it apparently amounts to a full network, not just a single main line with a branch....
Cool! What colors did you use for background and numbers? I've tried black-on-yellow and white-on-black and just got washouts.
