That's not a fault of the scoring system, that's a fault of the timetables.

I much preferred TSC's scoring system where the highest score you could get was always 1000. It gave a much clearer assessment than TSW's system.

And as I have repeatedly said, if Focus thinks that DTG could change something to make more money they have no reason not to tell them.

What was your point then?

No company, no matter how "hands off" they are, is going to give their subsidiaries total freedom.

I have no idea what broader plans they may have. But I would be very surprised if they didn't try to help their subsidaries make as much money as...

What exactly are you demanding proof for?

You have no idea what plans DTG might have in the future. They may have some that Focus will consider serious errors.

False dichotomy. Again, if DTG was going to do something that Focus thought would lead to them making less money, why would they not tell DTG?

Where did I say I was trusting the forums? And I doubt that DTG is earning the maximum amount of money possible, or that they will never make a...

I think this is a slightly different issue where wagons are spawned without handbrakes on, so if they're unfitted when the player gets close...

Every corporate acquisition comes with statements like this. You think if DTG was going to do something Focus thought was a mistake they wouldn't...

Yes, but of course that works.

They built it to represent the then-present day, as DTG usually does. The official store descriptions and the like should perhaps be rephrased to...

That was due to the laudable desire to include scenarios using only base Railworks stock.

The safety systems aren't too hard as long you remember you have to keep the brake at suppression until you're below the speed limit.

I wouldn't. If someone copies it then they're liable for copyright infringement.

Unfortunately not for TSC - I was making a comment about how LUA compilation shouldn't be relied upon for security.

LUA decompiling isn't the hardest thing in the world...

And when I try to use the discount code, it says it's invalid.

It's no longer giving me a 404 error but the discount now appears to be 30%.

That link gives me a 404 error.

There's always the Pleasure Beach Express...

That's standard PR talk. I wouldn't put too much stock in it.

I think TSG was fairly clear...

In my experience some trains seem to be immune, so there must be some minor detail that's different.

Well to be clear, this is DTG setting price limits for DLC and developers making stripped-down versions so that Steam buyers don't get the same...

While I appreciate the effort that has gone into the guard scenario, I would much rather see the guard's duties be correctly simulated and under...

I was more pointing to your claims about the motivations behind such releases...

I wouldn't say that's necessarily the case for all of these cases...

That depends on the dev.

Well no, by its very nature you can't pick a service at whatever time of day you like in Simrail until they add singleplayer timetables.

If you know the answer, why don't you tell us?

Unfortunately I have to agree with you. Experience has shown that DTG saying they're working on something is not an indication that anything will...

Route signals. They warn the driver of an upcoming change in route but leave the actual speed reduction necessary down to the driver's own route...

Right, it's clear to me now. You use a definition of "speed signal" that as far as I can tell, pretty much no one else uses.

Of course, particularly in the case of British* content, not being restricted to DTG content can be a curse as well as a blessing... *The French...

Then why is it any difference from colour light signals before the introduction of flashing yellows? Are those speed signals as well? And this...

Because your argument is fundamentally, as far as I can tell, that the use of semaphore distants to slow down trains that are routed for a...

This is not a relevant distinction for deciding whether something is a speed signal or not. If it's not specifying any sort of speed beyond "slow...

Yes, I know that. What I want to know is why you consider that a distant signal displaying "caution" for reasons other than an occupied block...

Then what, precisely, are you talking about? And which IRSE papers would those be?

Approach control is generally considered not speed signalling by definition. "Speed signal" is a somewhat fuzzy term, but just because a signal...

I'm sorry, what do you think a distant signal indicates if not the position of upcoming stop signals?

The usual distinction between signalling methods is speed vs route, not speed vs block (pretty much all speed signalling systems use blocks)....

I'm sorry, this is just gibberish as far as I can tell. How are splitting distants related to speed signalling? Have you just made up "the 5...

No, this is completely wrong. A British distant signal conveys absolutely no information or orders about what speed a train should be driven at....

As were all the other ones I listed.

Er, no they weren't.
