    To Whom It May Concern:
    When entering the training mode in Train Sim World (TSW), I'm able to use the ingame compass to effectively move around within the passenger coaches, engine cab, and outside, easierly, with no problem; however in TSW 2020, within the new Timetable mode, the ingame compass is no longer present and I cannot rotate the camera, within the engineers cab, 360 degrees, to effectively move into the locomotive facility room, where additional buttons, are used to turn on specific locomotive functions. When I use the external camera mode selection, moving within the passenger coaches, it sometimes take me out of the vehicle.
    Note: The HUD does appear in the timetable mode. Is there anyway to select an option to include the ingame compass, in the Timetable mode? Would I hve to uninstall and re-install TSW 2020, in order to regain the option of using the ingame compass, in the timetable mode? I've seen Mr. Matt Peddlesden's videos, in which He has the ingame compass present in the timetable/service mode. Is there a addon to accomplish this, or is this option, not a part of the new update? Also notice there is no sound of someone walking, in Timetable mode.
    Please advise, since this is becoming extremely frustrating to effectively move around, in this mode. Thank you for your time and patience.:)

    Wrong forum, this is the TS2020 forum, you want the TrainSimWorld, TSW forum.

    Not to be rude but why are there so many new members that think this is TSW?

    Yeah. I've been wondering that too. Perhaps DTG could do something so people can better distinguish the two forums?

    That or change TSW's name. A ton of people screw them up on Twitter too. There's a constant stream of users writing "Is it for consoles" on TS20 posts and it's kinda painful to see the sheer number of people screwing them up. The "2020" in the TSW title seems to have made it even worse now since all you need to do is add "ulator" and remove "World" to just get TS20. Removing the year in TSW's title or renaming it altogether doesn't seem too drastic anymore if it will curb the confusion once and for all.
