as some have pointed out already, even in diesel mode, 802 is far too sluggish... according to some, it has more power delivery upon start than...
ok, I willl check it next time I run a service here :) ... from your experience so far, is it implemented ok? :)
the physics have been reworked quite a bit it seems... now to release the standing brake it needs more force... also, the tempomat works...
ah, I see you arent a member of the Beeping Inferno Church :D ... do you have time to talk about our Lord and Savior The Big Beep? :D
I have noticed that there are Arrow III services that go the whole route... it does have only simple displays so I wonder, the only way I am going...
it was ALP45 :) ... I mean it behaves sliiiightly not the same as ALP46, so the timing could be different... will have to do more runs to see
had a run with ALP45, quite nice, except I couldnt acknowledge the reduction... but could be my lapped braking wasnt good enough... restarted the...
so just completed my first complete run - those before I was just checking the train... so... as I said, notch 2 doesnt get the train moving at...
oh, almost forgot... besides the painfully slow takeoff and general sluggishness in game... there are sections with like 2-3% grade and it is...
they renamed it to Fugging... as if that changes anything lol :D
it is rather sluggish under diesel, so much so that I was actually shocked... maybe under electric power it is similarly fast as 801, but on...
I should probably have added that I am driving a 9car variant... but still, is it really so sluggish under diesel? I find it hard to believe that...
I thought 802 was a bit more powerful, but when starting at Plymouth, and I know it is 1.1% uphill start, but then, thought notch 2 would be...
as far as I know, hold is to hold the pressure on the brake cylinder while also charging the brake pipe in the meantime
cant remember the exact service, but upon restarting, I was able to complete it without issue, sometimes going even harder with throttle, then for...
it takes a bit of practise... personally, if I want just some light braking, I just put it into service for like half a second or second, which...
yep, it was one of my first runs on the route cos I love the OG 101 (Expert 101 is of course better and much more realistic, but thats another...
interesting, so I guess this simulates that it takes a while for the train system to pick up the signal then :) fair enough :) also, on other...
since I havent tried myself yet - has anyone tried 112 if it is fixed yet?
now thats some serious trolling... I mean, bug :D ... it was probably some evil diesel locomotive :D
also sth I noticed - with single 442, usually like 15-20% throttle is enough to release the brakes and get moving, with 2x sometimes I have to go...
dunno if this is correct LZB behavior, but usually once you get onto the wire and see LZB, the system picks up... on this route, on both ends, it...
for me reinstalling the Morristown DLC made the Morristown version show as the only version, and now the NEC version doesnt show up for the NEC...
I am now trying to see if reinstalling NEC NYT fixes the variants not showing issue :) ... it not then I will just reinstall Morristown again, no...
another update - reinstalled this DLC, and now only the Morristown variant shows up in menus :D ... even when checking NEC NY Trenton selection,...
just checked Matt's stream and he also has only NEC NY Trenton variant of ALP-46 in the selection... looks like that one is missing some...
my ALP46 shows 16 kV as voltage at NY Penn for some reason, will try a different service and see if it helps edit: update - first off, the...
yeah I rewatched it later and there it was :)
so at some point you see change in voltage on the screen in the cab? like some sort of automatic neutral section and then poof it's done? :)
ok, seems like the power change with ALP45 works, mostly :) and from I think the preview stream I have noticed that the voltage change with ALP46...
oh I know, but here the brakes didn't release until complete stop, and I have tried everything, from just putting brakes to normal positions, to...
also, whats Kearney connection? in the Live article it is mentioned that ALP services change the power there (or voltage?)... which station is it
oh ok thx for the info :)
ok my bad - the voltage change is at Kearney sth :D ... also, I tried a different service, one that has no stop until Newark (going from Hoboken),...
two little things I have picked up just checking with ALP45: 1) no announcement before first station (the one before Newark Broad Street, forgot...
maybe one day we will get the famed Avelia Liberty... Amtrak must be out of their minds happy that they finally can put em to use lol
got that with Acela, of all trains lol... got held so much in certain sections that even the 150 section didnt have me from like 3-4 mins of delay :D
I did a run just to test multiple methods (also tried going to neutral and lowering and then raising panto), and yes, I also tried turning the...
I have watched the action at Kledering many times - locos arriving with new trains, leaving the wagons at entry tracks, then heavy electric...
[MEDIA] this is the point where it bypasses the St. Charles station... it is a LONG video, but quite rich with information... you got names of...
maybe a stupid question, but... well... driving this train and I have accidentally gotten brake into "emergency"... getting it back into normal...
and there is an older tunnel, right? I have seen that "bypass" in a cab video of the whole Nice - Marseille - Paris line (almost 6hrs and like 550...
I would love both - I actually love blasting through some stretches at 300+ kph, but yeah, I would also love to actually learn KVB properly... not...
- "hump yard physics", aka adjust physics of stationary and moving vehicles on slopes / make rolling resitance more realistic - IRL even slight...
[ATTACH] my run to Worcester - I was approaching the stop marker at almost 5 mph... then applied brakes, almost exactly on the marker... still got...
boom :) just completed an Acela run on Boston Providence, the new timetable... and finally, FINALLY (Rock voice) it ended up right - I approached...
my bad :) ... tho as I said, I have encountered this issue also on Boston Worcester, although after several patches it isnt as severe as at launch...
so, last one, this time with ACS-64... this was, if I was to judge by the ending, the best of the three... I would almost get exactly to the stop...
so, just did an Acela run, and this one was way worse - besides getting approach and such signals WAAAAY earlier than I should have, at the very...
[ATTACH] so, I did a run with ALP-46... as I was approaching the platform, I slowed down to 15 mph, eventually 5 mph as I was getting to within...
