I can neither confirm nor deny if a Vectron is in the works, or if I'm working on such a hypothetical locomotive ;) but if I were, I wouldn't be...
Incorrect. Railpool owns Vectron MS (15 kV 16 2/3 Hz, 25 kV Hz, 3 kV DC, 1.5 kV DC) variants as well ;) I guess the website just hasn't been updated.
I'm not completely sure how the external door buttons work IRL, but presumably at best they will only work with the local door switch set to...
If anyone finds that any of the features included in the OP of this thread does not work as described, please give me a heads up and I'll make...
Was there no driver assist pop-up message when you tried to notch up the throttle with the DRA still turned on? I programmed it to give a...
Thanks for the kind words, Jane! :)
This is what you need to do to open a local door on the guard panel: 1. Unlock the guard panel 2. Move the local door switch to "Open". 3. Press...
Hmm? Local doors do not have a delay. What is your sequence for opening local doors?
You shouldn't treat "approach control red" any different than "normal red" signals. Always treat a red as a red! EDIT: This is "the technique"...
The notch 3 RPM volume has been lowered by around 30% to make it match the rest of the notches (without it you can hear an abrupt change in volume...
Yes. The patch will feature the guard buzzer on the "Bell" input binding.
28. Correct coupling procedure/behaviour implemented. The BSI coupler that the Class 158 uses is automatic, but to establish a connection for the...
I am aware of how the BSI coupler works. What I explained is how it is handled in the game engine. I absolutely agree that both trains should be...
Makes me very happy to hear you say that about the Class 158. Making the engine and the transmission behave correctly was a bit of a nightmare :D....
I'm not 100% sure if the Class 158 uses the correct coupler setup, but it does use prototypical jumper cable setup (UK E021). From a quick look...
I very much agree with this suggestion (I think it should be a standard feature: if a switch is on/off or two-state then it should be a button,...
Sure. I'll update the OP but in the meantime: Wagon-------------Brake Equipment--Tare Weight------Max Gross Weight-----Empty Braked...
Update. Minimum BrH for given Vmax I have been able to get a hold of the Mbr (mindeste bremshundertstel or minimum BrH) for different maximum...
Update: Some of the information in the original post, like the calculated Vmax or the brake setting recommendations is incorrect. None of the...
Unfortunately the Class 150 uses a custom jumper cable setup that isn't compatible with the Class 158. EDIT: It might also be that their couplers...
Joe has already explained that the line speed drop is realistic. If you want to contest that statement, by all means show some evidence that it is...
I don't think it is necessarily a bad thing when a new route reuses a train from a previous DLC. Don't get me wrong, I like getting new trains as...
I wish there was a sweating emoji :D
26. Fixed wiper animations/behaviour. In the release build the wipers have the settings: Intermittent and Fast. In real life it should be Slow and...
It is not realistic. As have been mentioned before the brake blending system in the game is incorrect. You should not have both electric braking...
This is not correct. The "100% = 65 kN" sticker is for the electric brake, not the traction. If you look at the effort gauge you can see that the...
Do you have any services in mind? I'd love to try them.
To my knowledge (please correct me if I'm wrong) most loco/train DLC (by that I mean a DLC that only includes a locomotive or train, and not a...
Yes, I’ve been aware of it for some time. It is not a physics issue, but rather an animation issue. The wheels aren’t actually spinning in...
On the 158 you can run with TPWS in temporary isolation. I described how to do this in the ”bits and bobs” thread. I still run with TPWS enabled...
Just want to make it clear (in case there was any confusion): everything listed after point 8 is currently not in the public version of the game....
25. HUGE CHANGE: Guard simulation. This is a feature that has been implemented by Daisy. Many will probably already know of Daisy from her work as...
Update: 22. Implemented two new circuit breakers with correct logic. Local Control: When this fuse is opened the local engine is stopped. Since...
I appreciate all the feedback! Obviously the top priority for something as important as control of the safety systems is to not make it worse. I...
I'm not aware of this smart-PZB-logic. Do you mean that an analogous smart-AWS-logic would only move the AWS button when there is an AWS horn...
I appreciate the kind words :)
I have been experimenting with a new control system on the Class 158 that I think will make the most number of people (on all systems) happy. 1....
Yes. Move the "Temporary Isolation" rocker switch to "Isolate" above the desk on the non-drivers side. Explained in more detail here. [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] For those who want to isolate TPWS but keep AWS operational this can be done by moving the Temporary Isolation rocker switch to "Isolate"...
Something that has personally bugged me driving UK trains is that when you reset/acknowledge an AWS alarm you automatically raise the DSD (driver...
Did I forget to reply to you in the other thread regarding the sand button and fault lamp test? These are not illuminated on the real EMT/EMR...
Any idea if the 158's you worked on were the 400 HP variants? The MML Class 158 is simulated after the 350 HP engine and the performance matches...
Would this sequence reproduce it? 1. Start service 2. Set cruise control to maybe 125 mph 3. Release brakes 4. Move the throttle to a small value...
Are you on console? I have tried to reproduce this issue but I can't on PC. It is definitely a bug.
I wouldn't be that dismissive ;) There are areas where Simugraph really shines in comparison to TSC, but the things you brought up are possible...
What physics problems are you saying that the Class 158 has?
Thanks RobSkip and bescot ! I have fixed this now to how it is IRL.
Update: 17. Implemented DSD pedal movement and sound. The pedal will depress when you are seated and when resetting vigilance the pedal is...
I think there are legit TPWS issues, but I actually don't think I have been able to reproduce any (in around 5-10 full service journeys). I've...
