This is really interesting. I had always assumed that couplers compressed when stopping, and that's how those freight trains were able to start...

Can't wait to see the rulebook.

Okay, this made me laugh. Totally forgot what day it is today.

I hope not. Those workday Journey sequences seem like they'd have taken a hell of a lot of effort to set up. Be a shame if that work just faded...

https://www.railway-technology.com/features/featurethe-worlds-longest-railway-networks-4180878/ The size of the U.S. rail network is the largest...

My next suggestion would be the graphics drivers. Reset to default settings, revert to an older version if neccesary. Maybe turn off TSW in-game...

Sam: "A new goal!"

You need to go down the Administrative Templates tree under Computer Configuration, not User Configuration. However, Windows should have remote...

Are the lighting parameters set individually in each route? I'm wondering if it's just a matter of devs needing to acclimate to the new system,...

As a middle-aged male myself, I have to agree with both these posts. :) At the end of the day, it's easy to assume that something is easy if you...

False. They say to people asking if desired features and routes are being worked on that if it's not on the roadmap, then assume it isn't. But...

I was thinking that, but it didn't seem to make sense for some reason. But now this morning it does. I guess my brain fell out of comprehension...

I can follow most of this thread but am having one terminology problem. Could someone define "on point" in this context, please?

Was TSW open sourced when I wasn't looking? That's the only explanation I can think of for the number of people who seem to have access to the...

But is it the proper horn on the proper locomotive for that particular crossing?

Funny story: My grandmother's family emigrated to the U.S. from Germany when she was a child. Later, after being successful here, they returned...

I don't think I've ever heard multi-tone here in the U.S. That's an interesting point about a range of sounds penetrating ambient noise. But so...

Given that those posts are in a language few if any people here read, and they're posted in huge numbers at a time when no moderation is...

A blanket ban on all trains Russian feels like an overreaction to me, but given the public's tendency to overreact to real or imagined...

Seems a specific run of rail cars has a loose wheel issue. About 700 are in service, with 200 owned by NS....

And here I thought it was a bug when Sam did that. Maybe DTG doesn't get enough credit for attention to detail.

Can we please get some kind of progress report on the TSW2 derail fixes and Preservation Crew updates? Are the TSW3 versions still being tweaked,...

Possibly it means "1 seat left at this price." Amtrak sells a certain number of seats at each price point, starting cheap and getting more...

You sure about "a mile or more"? Train headlights are meant to be seen from a great distance, but I'm not sure it's possible to light up the...

Makes sense, thanks!

Clinchfield's journeys are amazing. I wish something similar could be created for the other U.S. freight routes, but it wouldn't surprise me if...

Plus, licensing isn't a generic thing where one publisher's success in one area means anyone should automatically be able to get any license for...

Clearly they just clicked through that warning screen at the beginning of the game without reading it.

For me, the one most important requirement for a train driving sim is that every run can be completed end-to-end, whether in easy mode with HUD...

Always nice to see you pop up, and random survey tidbits are a bonus. Any chance of top ten lists for 2022 a la the ones for 2021? I'm also...

And today I've learned that our Clue is Cluedo in England, and furthermore that the latter is the original.

A big one here is the banking comm, which is nonfunctional in Clinchfield alone but certainly needed there.

I was wondering if it would be possible to hook up every loco and loose freight car in SPG (or one of the other U.S. freight routes) and run that...

DTG has said many times that development is done for current-gen systems and then scaled back where necessary to run on gen 8.

Having ridden the Surfliner many times when visiting family in California, I can confirm that the scenery is gorgeous.

Oh, a Steam key seller? That would explain it. Caveat emptor. The game's progression is CSX Heavy Haul --> TSW --> TSW 2020 --> TSW 2 --> TSW 3...

I could be wrong, but AFAIK the CSX Heavy Haul name was dropped for the original release of TSW, and thus was long gone for TSW 2020. You say...

Woof. Sympathy to whoever learned this the hard way, and their neighbors.

Thanks much for the updates, Matt. I appreciate reactions can be frustrating, but silence is never a better option than communication.

I'm sure they did read it with a fine-tooth comb. But humans are human, as nockwurst points out. It's much easier to scoff at people for missing...

Have to correct this for fairness. DTG didn't know about this until they hit the limit, nearly a year after the PS5 release. They did mea culpa...

Looks like the 64 gb limit itself was first discovered in October 2021, so 16 months for that. The idea for the add-ons manager came sometime...

Great idea! It's a shame that they can't go into too much detail about licenses for business reasons, but the more they can say to steer people...

DTG deliberately doesn't do derailments, for company and licensing reasons.

Sony does. Or I should say, the PS4 does. I assume this PS5 thing I've heard about does also.

May I respectfully suggest that people keep in mind the difference between "I like this"/"I don't like this" and "people who like this have a...

So sorry for your loss.

Personally, I think it's hilarious and have to applaud an utterly unexpected Easter egg. But I guess I can understand those who feel that this...

It's also one of the world's largest consumers of apostrophes.
