    Noticed a fix not mentioned in the thread https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/update-notes-april-11th-2024.80500/.

    DTG have fixed the WMR liveried units guard panel signal buzzer not making the noise! Will update this thread with other fixes I spot, and I would be interested in hearing from others about anything new they've noticed that wasn't specifically mentioned. It now makes the noise when the doors are closed (not open, but wondering if this is as intended).

    Glad to see this :)
    One outstanding bug (I think) seems to be that on the WMR units when you are at the guard panel with the door key in and hit door close, all doors close - not leaving the guard door open to then step out check all clear then come back in, may apply to centro and northern too.

    Same happens on the 801 tbh. Pretty sure it didn't do this at one point, but not necessarily linked to the latest update.

    WMR BCC Local Door Close Button doesn't work even with door key in. Only the all door close.

    Also the in-train PIS screens don't work for the next station is announcements. For example, in the middle coach (09:10 Bromsgrove to Four Oaks (2U22???)) different screens say different things. Some report as being Northfield, and others Kings Norton

    This is an old bug and DTG definitely knows about it. There is a similar instance on Blackpool Branches with a Whistle board down on the Burn Naze branch.

    Can we please get the 125mph limiter resolved on ECML Azuma? It currently keeps it at 126 rather than 125.

    If you're on PC there's a mod for that by Bescot, it limits the 801 to 124mph as per real life

    It takes more effort to put a sign in a "fallen down" position than to place it upright.... normally they are like this because they ARE like this or have been seen in a cab ride like it.

    It's like the 80% sunken hut on SEHS that people initially proclaimed laziness etc, but if you go check a cab ride video - you'll notice it's actually pretty darn accurate to how that looks in real life.

    Matt.

    PS4 - But thanks

    Thanks Matt - good to know. I was confused originally given some were up and some were down, but this makes sense. Maybe these could be made into like a collectable type thing. You stop the train, get out, and walk up to the sign which then stands up as the driver 'fixes it'.

    Possible, yes - however to my mind that means collecting the collectible removes a tiny bit of character from the route.

    Something to discuss certainly.

    Matt.

    Maybe something added instead - like red and white tape around the sign pole, or a cone placed next to it but the sign remains down. That way keeps the character of the fallen signs, and adds another collectible to the route. Love the BCC collectibles - particularly the Hunslet ones!

    Ooh - perhaps taking pictures of things that need correction much like taking pictures on Island Line or something - then to find them you role play a line survey taking shots of errant items as you go, finding each "collectable".

    That's a cool idea, possibly a catalyst for improving route tasks in general. As much as I like the collectables, they do tend to lack any interaction

    Though any additions/enhancements to colletables are likely to enrage the er, let's call them "purists" on the forum...

    I must admit I'd always thought the Signs laying on the ground was intentional and I always thought it was a nice touch. Same with the hut being "sunk" on SEHS

    1A45 just crashed on departure from DON to PBO (ECML PS4). New bug since the core update. Error Code CE-34878-0. Used to just be one way unusable due to crashes, now it is both ways :( DTG Alex DTG Harry DTG Matt Are there any updates on the PBO -> DON crashes please? I imagine the new DON -> PBO crashes may due to a similar cause. Thank you

    Hello, our teams are aware of the crashes on ECML around Doncaster are looking into getting these resolved when we can, thanks for sharing the additional information as we can share this to the QA and development teams to help them with their progress!

    Again today on 1E10 - Same place. Just passing the freight yard on the right hand side (when going DON -> PBO direction). Lots of freight wagons and some 66s. Maybe just remove them and make the yard empty - don't know if maybe it's too draining on memory?

    1B80 Stood up on train while driving 13 miles before GRA. Kicked me out the cab. Hoping the AWS stops the train, and regretting I didn't turn on vigilance as I'm now walking to find my train

    DTG Harry Please pass onto them that while in timetable mode, the DON <-> IEP Depot runs just crash since the update, it still works fine in the limping off scenario. Maybe this'll help them isolate the fault in some way

    And in the scenario 'In Threes', while FPS drops around DON and there is more lag - it doesn't crash on arrival.
