There is nothing that prohibits implementing brake fade in the game. We already have similar effects (brake moisture fade, traction motor heat)...
Yep :)
I'm 90% sure that this is an issue with the route rather than the train. For some reason, some TPWS grids will trip emergency even when they...
Ok time for some A/B testing Subway#2400 and ctoo#2563 :D I have made a poll with 5 different questions here: Poll link In the following google...
Right that's it. Mk4. Afaik most 158's use Mk3 but some have Mk4. I have a correction to make to my earlier statements. I just talked with the...
Thanks for the input! :) This might just be one of those things where different TOC differ. For example I know for a fact that some 158s have...
A fun service on MML: 5D15 Eastcroft Depot - Loughborough - Class 158 You're driving an empty stock move with a lot of yellow signals :)
Subway#2400 What throttle sequence? Idle to N1? Idle to N3? Idle to N7?
This is a bug but has been fixed in the dev build so it should be in the upcoming patch. This is not correct. I have confirmed with a driver that...
Good question! I'll check the next time I'm running a MML service and report back.
Like londonmidland stated, this is prototypical. In fact in the upcoming patch (I don't know when it will be so don't ask me :D ) I have made a...
Ok some updates: 12.2 New: The brake demand light will now flash when brake demand is triggered but the alarm hasn't been acknowledged. As soon...
I know this was tongue in cheek but just a point of correction. I'm running a service right now between Nottingham and Leicester. When starting...
I can answer some of the things regarding the Class 158. 1. Door interlock lamp should not be illuminated if the doors aren't released. This issue...
Since I did the Simugraph setup for the Class 158 and some of the simulation scripting I thought it might be of interest to you all with a brief...
I want to push back slightly on this statement. As can be seen from this thread, the view that TSC lighting looks better is controversial (not...
Speaking of simulation complexity in TSW. Notice how the main reservoir pressure needled wiggles when the horn is used at 0:32 in this video ....
Brake heat might be possible to script in TSC to a small extent, but it would never be possible to do it with the complexity and fidelity that is...
JetWash It's been a while since I used TSC (and AP EPs). I remember that the Sprinter EPs were quite convincing, owing to the fact that AP has a...
In many aspects of simulation I would argue that TSW has long since surpassed TSC. The ceiling of Simugraph is way higher than TSC. Even if there...
What a bizarre take.
The BR110 cab does have a transformer (Oberstrom) ammeter. It's the gauge to the side of the OHLE voltage gauge. For the motor current that's...
Come back down to earth lol :D
No, it is definitely electric current. Both motor current (Motorstrom) and current collector current (Oberstrom) have (IRL, not ingame) relays...
That's actually not what that label means. What it is supposed to represent is the maximum electric brake effort. If you take a look at the effort...
It's not an idle sound though. Note the position of the "compressor speedup" switch in the cab. EDIT: Compressor speed-up will run up the engine...
This manual from BNSF might be useful to you. ABTH-05-040710.pdf (fobnr.org)
Definitely bad practice. In the US (more in the past than currently) it was common to "stretch brake" where you bail off the locomotive brakes and...
You get what you pay for. In this case the DLC is 5 GBP which means you can't expect all the features you would of something more expensive.
Haha, no I wouldn't compare those either. Just a fun (to me) nit pick :D
Depends on how long the train and the platforms are :D Some of the stations that accommodate ICE trains in Germany are insanely long, nearly 500...
Regarding this part "or find a balance where you get some dynamic brake and some air brake". I have asked two different drivers now (with...
Yes this is what I meant by this: "IRL if the BR101 is driving coaches with TB0 then simply moving the door selector away from "close all" will...
As far as I understand it the BR101 uses the door system called SST-F ("Seitenselektive Türsteuerung Fernverkehr"). This system allows the driver...
What you state regarding "R" vs "P" and "G"-brake is correct. :) G-brake: applies (emergency) to 95% of max pressure in 18-30 seconds and...
I don't feel comfortable giving an assessment on whether the brakes on the BR110 or BR103 are realistic or not. I haven't tested them (with...
This is not correct. Germany (and many other UIC-countries) have been using R-brake for passenger trains since the 1940s. P- and G-brake are used...
I am by no means an expert on NORAC/NEC signals so I will refrain from giving too much details regarding what signal aspects to expect in...
That's not what Quora says! ;) (inside joke, definitely do listen to Whitsim)
Oh by the way. Regarding "how much" you should set the throttle level to when making train brake applications: As far as I know there is no strict...
You're not confused, that's exactly how it works :D Some more detail in case anyone is interested. When the train brake is applied the control...
Thanks for taking the time to make the video, very much appreciated! I have some good news: I was not able to reproduce the issue following your...
Maybe I'm "old school" but I don't think it is reasonable to have safety systems enabled and expect that the HUD will give enough information for...
Truly a representative picture of what the Acela looks like in TSW3 :D
I haven't been able to reproduce this issue. Would it be possible for you to make a video of the issue? :)
