That is your opionion. I beg to differ. I find the modern trains very interesting, whether they are Bombardier, Stadler, Siemens or Talgo.

I really hope we get some really new EMUs and DMUs in TSW. On the EMU side I'd like Twindex or similar (Doppelstock EMU) which become more and...

Erfurt-Nuremberg would be one section with an intermediate stop in Bamberg. That would already be 180km but would offer some variety in the...

I'm looking to do some timetables that allow for dynamic overtaking if the player takes too much time (at scheduled stops off the main track)....

Well, but if that person keeps on playing, then the money would accumulate. I guess the primary question is around the play model for the game....

The PC Editor is not a DTG product. It wasn't developed by DTG. They added certain tools to it but at the core it is the Unreal Editor and that is...

An optional subscription, considering the amount of DLCs already released, would be an option to ease the entry for new players into TSW. If you...

Then it would be a prime opportunity to implement it. Could open the door for many more modern routes (like Erfurt-Bamberg) that are built only...

Sometimes the signals don't match the track speed restrictions that are picked up by the HUD. Example in Munich-Augsburg with S-Bahn service...

By any chance, does this include overtaking existing services with your additional train?

That helps a lot. If dispatch beyond is active, how far ahead does the dispatch beyond go? Is it the next go via/to instruction or something else?

The HUD does not contain everything the signals do. Running with safety systems in Germany means to pay attention to the route and less to the...

Have you tried not releasing the PZB? You can only release it if there is a signal/speed limit above 60kph. As there is an upcoming speed...

It would be very cool to have a small tutorial (video or text with images) that explains these building blocks. We'll have to see if that works...

Not even grouping the same occurring steps in a macro/function so you don't have to repeat the same procedure for every service of a stopping...

I have a couple of questions regarding the blueprinting of timetables: It looked like you cannot use generic UE4 blueprint elements like...

Don't forget that both BR 143 and 112 have the "Erich-Honecker-Gedenksekunde": when starting to break, it takes a couple of seconds for the power...

It appears that beta testers don't drive with minimal HUD or no HUD and QA testers are not knowledgable at all and will only look if the gamey...

No, they don't. They use the Talent 1 extensively with Cityjet livery for regional and S-Bahn services. Seen around Innsbruck and Salzburg.

Houdini is an external software tool but can probably exchange data with the editor. It's not part of the UE4 editor. However, a free version is...

The second step of timetable simulation will likely prevent dynamic events. But will try to include simulation-time dynamics as in: dynamically,...

Will the Austrian portion of the route feature the appropriate Austrian safety systems? After all, DTG added the French systems for one French...

Remember the original presentation of BML and how they designed the timetable so that 700 could be included once available. Now the licence is...

Yeah, which is why I hope for more 3rd party developers so we get a higher rate of new locos. Especially in Germany we didn't see a whole lot of...

Well, because I don't want the vintage routes. In my opinion they can come once all the common present day rolling stock has been implemented....

It's great to see semaphores. But I personally prefer the current age. There are so many great modern tractions that are still not available. I...

The rain is also still a camera post effect and not part of the world. If you quickly move the free roam camera, you can see it. It starts to rain...

Thanks for the info. I stand corrected.

Well, LZB itself does not operate the brakes. It alerts you of the braking curve but if you do not apply brakes then it must assume that you are...

As in early access only Kassel-Würzburg is available as German route, I assume you mean that route and don't use the ICE through scenario planner...

An easy solution to an Ebula would be multiple pages of the relevant route data with kilometre info and speed. However, that would not be close to...

The lighting problem in the tunnels has been fixed by DTG. There is no longer a blueish light as seen during the Kassel-Würzburg stream and the...

In that case, you usually see them early enough. But you need to pay close attention. Even the reflective boards are not visible a kilometer in...

Even Joe is a human and humans make mistakes. It was likely stressful and he probably overlooked it. That can be the case. Adding it back in...

Yes. I think here is a misconception and a poor communication on part of DTG (again). The lumen values are accurate. BUT: the casting distance of...

Exactly. The route should exclusively include route information (aka a level). I get that trackside equipment needs to be there for safety systems...

I should’ve been more specific: speed itself is just a value and easy. But Simugraph complicates this with logic. As for fights: I would bet that...

Actually, save feature is way easier for indie games. They use engines without custom modifications and likely have fewer moving parts with less...

I didn't know that Cane Creek and Horsehoe Curve were 3rd party. My bad. Sand Patch was released as a TSW2 route, not part of preserved collection.

I'm a software dev myself and can tell you that not every task is "groundbreaking". Some tasks don't require a lot of intelligence to finish but...

Once you start viewing each TSW release as a new major version of the same software, it starts to make more sense. With each major version, DTG...

No, I'm not. There is an Allersberg-Express which, as of 2020, has been renamed to S5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allersberg-Express. But I...

While there is not an option for German and US without UK, you can just buy the US/German version on launch day (sadly not before) and get SEHS,...

Do you remember the hassle they had when switching a minor Unreal Engine version? Another major version means that they would have to completely...

In other words: the previous TSW2 routes with LZB in the real world existed before LZB was equipped there. They were upgraded to 200kph but LZB...

I have just driven on SEHS (TSW2 obviously) and the blueish light on entering tunnels is present there too. The speed is lower and the brightness...

I guess one problem of DTG is that they are still developing the core features of a train sim and have to sell content to fund its ongoing...

As I understand the articles, to get the best value out of the offer, you should not preorder if you already own the items. For me, I will buy the...

They have done it because it was a move to fix other lighting issues (do bright tunnels/night being one). As they have explained, it is not really...
