Exploring the area around Birmingham in BCC I see a lot of laid track, signals, landscaping and the start of what looks like road-mapping. Is this going to end up as an extension at some point?
Many routes contain even three times as much terrain and trackwork than what is cut into final product. Either result of mass import of data, or content cuts happening during development. But surely result of bad optimization, as these are still loaded to memory when you get close, even while they are not used for anything.
Don’t think that’s indicative of any future extension. Most games seem to have map work done in areas beyond what is accessible to the end user.
At the time of release it was commented that most of the track leading to Soho Depot, where the line's Class 323 sets are stabled and maintained, but DTG elected not to include this short but key section in the release candidate. They have shown no sign of adding it in since.
Was not planned to begin with. I remember jd and matt mentioning during one of the streams and forums that they didn't plan to include it when the route was first brought up to start developing it
Point is it should have been though, particularly given it was only a couple of extra miles, mostly in tunnel. Obviously ran out of space on the flywheel! So I’m guessing then, Longsight not included on MGH or whatever we’re calling it?
