Making mastery optional would be a good idea as there are consistent issues with it. Also some people may just not want to play with it and it makes it fell burdensome This could be easily fixed by just adding a toggle in the menu which would deactivate it and auto reward all the prizes.
I'm not even going to lie I've been playing TSW for a while and I have zero clue what mastery is. Can I have a bit of enlightenment on what it actually is haha
not all that good at explaning it but to put it simple you do some tasks (hope to hell they save) and then you get a small reward (usually scenery or livery decals) more info can be found here https://train-sim-world.fandom.com/wiki/Mastery
Well it is optional if you do not look at it or do anything. Some can be achieved without even knowing you did the tasks. But it is something players are not required to do. I just don't bother with it and just play in timetable mode
I full heartedly agree on making mastery optional, due to the series of issues it has been experiencing. I do like the ‘diorama’s’ which you can unlock, but seeming that the progress tracking is broken takes out the fun in trying to complete the tiers. Therefore I’m all in on the optional suggestion.
