i have put some time into this ... the few manuals say nada the tutorials are no better For BR 186, SimRail is different from our ÖOB 1116 on Semmering. Regardless, across TRAXX family locos, the functionality in various circumstances, whether SIFA braking, emergency brake plunger, PZB braking, the functionality should be alike and consistent. It is not. My post on this vanished as a non-discussion. Your loss, dtg,, not mine. Tutorials should cover intended variations across trains. Your QA is dreadful, your releases are beta at best. So i will not hold my breath. Tell drivers why that desk switch is an up/down toggle, not a simple switch. You simulate that. Why not say why.
Because the switches were designed that way obviously. There's just no reason why it was made that way. It just got made like that
