I recently created an engaging free-mode scenario timetable on SMH with the player having free reign on the Cheyenne yard with the ability to cut in an out of 5 consists sitting on the tracks, with arrivals coming in the yard about every 15 minutes. Only problem is, in order to do this, I used the TSW God mode mod to place some objects, including the player loco, which means the player has to switch trains at the beginning of the scenario, thereby starting the new scenario, which requires saving the game at a particular time and spot on the map and using the .sav file to replace with the player’s save game file. The scenario won’t work right otherwise. I would like to share this with the community. Is there a way to do that, and more importantly, why aren’t some of these things made easier for creators? I would love to dive headfirst in to creating fun and engaging timetable scenarios but the tools provided are so limited in scope that it makes it nearly impossible without using external tools, and taking literally days. I think this scenario took me about 2 full days to get right. Like why don’t we have the ability to choose and open slot in the yard, not just the ones that Dovetail decided? What’s the current status on the unofficial editor becoming official?
