    It would be good to have a spreadsheet like a X axis and y axis style with routes/locos on one side and features on the other to help state what’s intended to work for each route, as sometimes something appears as a bug cause it works elsewhere but sometimes it’s because a route hasn’t been updated for that

    if it’s a yes (eg: AWS on Great Western Express) have a tick
    If it’s not there (eg: Peninsular Corridor Platform PIS) put a “X”
    If it doesn’t apply (eg: AWS on Schnellfahrstreke) put “N/A”

    this would also help to get bug reports reduced down to issues rather than misunderstandings and get bug reports in for things that aren’t working as intended when stated in this spreadsheet

    some suggested features that I think would be appropriate for this include but are not limited to;

    skybox
    Platform pis
    Class 166 automatic front number displays
    Off world destinations for pis (platform and on train pis)
    In cab operating pis
    In cab automatic pis
    Rush hour passengers
    Route changing/recognised in cab pis
    water texture upgrades
    Livery designer compatibility
    Safety system operatable (each type)
    Automatic train pis recognition of service number
    Certain updated sounds (eg: M7 Horn)
    Systems similar to AFB

    People would take this as a promise to make those features, the same as they do idle comments of Matt's (or even confirmed "We'll look at this" from Matt), ie would cause some people a few problems

    sounds quite silly that people get problems because dovetail states what’s in their game

    Edit: also as my suggestion was only for intended already implemented features, would it be so controversial to ask dovetail things like “does MSB have LZB ?” or “did you decide to go for an automatic set up for this locos PIS?” or “how come I can change the livery of a class 101 not my 166 ?”
