The question is whether or not that lack of demand is created by DTG not producing anything for them.
Clearly you don't have experience with the routes I'm talking about.
It's extremely obvious that they're a spammer trying to disguise themselves.
No steam until DTG finishes it. That will always be my stance.
Except when it comes to stuff like steam...
The Features list says that it includes three scenarios.
I can't seem to find any information on the scenarios included.
A very, very far-off branch.
You can make a decent enough model of an interior with a few dozen interior photos and some educated guessing. For stuff like fonts there are...
That's some great basic information, thanks. I think my main question is is there any information on a train signals can access beyond what routes...
I'm not just referring to routing, I'm referring to how TSW's implementation of Absolute Block is broken at the aspect level and impossible to...
Ignore what DTG say, look at what they do.
Peak Forest's signalling problems extend beyond the dispatcher...
Not my experience. I've only done one service (a Brighton-East Croydon Thameslink one), but I arrived 11 minutes late at East Croydon because the...
Apparently the issue with passengers not spawning on NYT has been fixed, which is good. But other routes still have this issue, though not at...
We don't know. I would imagine that though theoretically they could overrule any of DTG's decisions, in practice they leave DTG to make its own...
DTG is the publisher. Focus does not become the publisher just because they own DTG.
The devs may be passionate. The actual decision-makers may not be.
I'm interested in learning about signal scripting, in particular what sort of information signals have access to. Does anyone know anything on...
That's some fairly extreme optimism...
If you have a realistic water and fire simulation, there is no reason not to have manual firing.
I would highly advise taking a look at the signal scripting and seeing if you can find some way for the signal to read both the position and speed...
The problem is that with DTG "delayed" often means "never coming out at all".
The automatic fireman has to stoke like crazy and cause the valves to constantly blow off because it has no way of knowing when steam will be...
Manual firing is essential to driving unless they implement a mind-reading auto fireman.
The OP specifically asked "are there any additions to the steam simulation over TSW3?".
Same difference.
It being finished.
Which is not relevant to what the OP was asking about...
I strongly suspect that the TSW version of 66587 will be stripped of any Freightliner branding the real loco might carry.
I would prefer a better source than Wikipedia - and that's only referring to the also-obsolete "instanter" coupling in any case.
[citation needed]
I am fairly certain that three-link loose couplings are no longer used...
UK freight trains can have multiple locos perfectly fine; the factors restricting train length are separate.
No new steam locomotives should be made until manual firing is added.
Have you actually looked at the credits for Blackpool Branches?
Union Workshop is only two people. For comparison the Blackpool Branches dev team was in the double digits.
Of course that ignores that a lack of support for old routes and failing to deliver on promised features harms sales of future content...
In the UK where absolute block is used, yes.
Again, why does the existence of other services detract from the high-speed services? Your claim isn't even true because ECML comes with freight...
Understand if you consider this off topic or can't answer, but as you're the only person I know who's tried to make custom signals, can you give...
What's interesting is that IIRC Matt claimed around Peak Forest's release that the reason Peak Forest didn't add manual firing was because they...
There aren't that many significant speed changes between Peterborough and Doncaster either... And from TSC London-Peterborough isn't a straight...
Is this an admission that no work is done or being planned to be done on manual firing?
How is London-Peterborough a "boring A to B run" and Peterborough-Doncaster isn't?
Why does that detract from the high-speed services?
How does the majority of services being commuter services detract from the high-speed services?
If manual firing was coming with either it presumably would have been mentioned, unfortunately.
Is there any news at all on manual firing?
The problem is that DTG have not given any reason to trust them when they say "it needs a bit more time, but it's coming".
Separate names with a comma.
