I understand that trains are heavy and hard to stop (BTW, air brakes on all US trains feel a bit too good), and while with more railcars you add...
Aside from stuck brakes on some of NEC wagons, do trains roll too well, or that's about right? They seem to lose speed on level grade, but...
Soo, no comments?
I wouldn't be so cheerful about that. Traction motors are also "being fixed", but that's their status for about a year already.
I was toying with various freight cars in service mode to solve the mystery of trains not wanting to roll, and aside from applied handbrakes on...
Actually, I'm not so sure about handbrakes anymore. There's a scenario where you assemble a manifest train from 2 consists and move it to the...
The thing I want the most is the fix for traction motors. But in terms of new content, hmm... maybe steam? Well, you are the only ones who can...
Good to see the diesel-electrics making their way to the list at the very least.
Well, the mystery of GP38-2 struggling with that consist on the stream is solved. Apparent;y the handbrakes are applied on all boxcars and tank...
That honestly doesn't sound very encouraging. :(
Jay. It's a good think that there's so much stuff done regarding the lights and passengers, and I'm sure it took a lot of time to implement. But...
I watched the livestream. Well, I'm sure you would enjoy going down the Sand Patch for 10,000th time. You actually probably would be able to get...
To be fair, if not for their corporate department we could also have much fewer things.
Well, this simulator has a lot of potential. Sadly it seems to suffer from the lack of resources or something along these lines... But... umm,...
Or maybe they are testing new resistance dynamic. I think someone commented that trains roll too easily in HH. Or maybe that's wrong. But on the...
We've seen a pair of GP38-2 really having to work to pull a consist up some grades in NEC, and GP40-2 is very underpowered - as in "can't pull the...
Hmm... but they spawn randomly, aren't they? So I might have to use them :)
I'd rather not have GP40-2 because they seem way too underpowered compared to rest of the diesel-electric fleet. :/
I think that the new route and locomotive looks great, and freight part also has some potential, but... - New York Penn station looked very dark...
I'm actually wondering if they bit more than they could chew with simugraph. On paper, the idea is awesome, and I really like it. But, since it's...
In addition to this, I want to point out that for some reason Rapid Transit train signals are not subject to Doppler effect for some reason.
I mean this pushback doesn't mean that they won't release it with issues. Bug-free software is non-existent in general, and TSW unfortunately so...
I'm pretty sure that someone said that they had to lower the number of cars on CSX trains because they had a significant impact on performance....
Do you want your PC to die?
I suppose Jay is writing from the past. They needed more time to finish the release and used a time machine.
15 is Thursday. If they show the stream before the release, then technically that would be "ahead" :)
Yea, I also kinda wanted to find a way to open a coil car, but it's not possible... The ones in the scenario feel pretty heavy, but you use a...
Yea, a couple of GP40-2 shouldn't struggle with a few empty cars. I think the autorack GE train is the most well-balanced service out of them. The...
Hello. I mostly played TSW, but since this sim has much more content and stuff, I bought it as well. However, I experience serious frame drop...
Also, I'm not entirely sure that this is correct. Does it really take 4x 3000hp locomotives to drag 40 empty wagons? Sure they are road switchers,...
I mean, the tools are in the same state of "coming eventually" as traction motor overhaul... And remember my words, once they come out everyone...
I mean... we have 6 diesel-electric locomotives, and four of them are the CSX ones. The only "new" one we know of is reused GP38-2. From all the...
I think the GE one also works somewhat decently. At least two AC4400CW have to work to drag an autorack train uphill. But seriously, this...
I mean, they are reusing a Sand Patch locomotive in new DLC. So they cannot abandon it completely.
Huh. I'm running Q640 ATM, and I picked an SD40-2 just in case from a nearby service. I powered it down, but it feels like I'll need it later.
I decided to ride along one service, and it pretty much followed passenger speed limits. At some point I had GE locomotive (with top speed of 70...
So, wait, am I reading Matt's response right? Doesn't that mean that the upcoming patch is not going to fix the issue either? You know, I gave...
Pretty much the title. It's a manifest train powered by two GP40-2 (with DLC, don't remember how it was without one), and it struggles to climb...
