    One of the most annoying things I encountered with TSW since I started playing this game is that a tiny part of the world does not use the metric system. But in TSW that is almost 2/3 of the world.

    This is the only game I know you can't just put the settings to metric and forget the imperial system even exists.

    I notice this very hard in LIRR 2 where the important information needs to be read in imperial units in the cockpit. With speeds it's not that hard but with distances in imperial I just can't work. It would be nice to have the option to make the distance bar Metric whilst the HUD displays the speed information in imperial.

    How? It's either metric or imperial. You can't mix them in the HUD. I would want the speed and speed limit in the HUD in imperial but the distance bar in metric when I'm driving on routes that use the imperial system.

    Don't users of the imperial system have the same difficulties when driving German routes for example?

    No problem with German routes signals in meters speed in kph and stations in km

    Probably because metric makes sense ;)
