    Hi,
    This is coming from a member who is new to the TSW world. So I'm just interested in what generally folk would like to see. Most companies have limited resources. So they can't do everything.
    I see lots of messages saying can we have this/that or the other. But in a higher level, what is it that people want? I'll list a few things. But I suspect it is not in anyway comprehensive due to my newbie status.
    Firstly I'll exclude bugs from this. They come with the software territory. And would hope they get resolved over time. The stuttering is the most annoying for me.
    So here goes
    1. More routes in a country so that the country is well covered and generally allows the locos to be used across routes
    2. Routes in new countries - I suspect this is desired from folk outwith the countries that have the best coverage at the moment.
    3. More locos
    4. More realism in the locos e.g. all buttons operable to move it close to a simulator (and working loos of course ;-)
    5. More realism in the environment e.g. Real destination boards
    6. Improved sounds - this is one I don't yearn for given that the route that led me in to TSW (Tees Valley Line), the sound and the Class 101 really does remind me of my childhood days. Well done DTG.
    7. Multiplayer - whatever that really means. My assumption is on a given line, 10 players can all be driving their own trains and see each other at different points.
    8. Joined up routes - some sort of ability to either drive a train on route A and continue on route B. Or possibly Route A terminates at the same station as Route B starts and the driver changes vehicles.
    9. Steam Engines - my understanding is this is just a bit bigger job than a new loco so will list is separately.
    10. Other - sure there are a few.

    I guess this partly touches whether you folk would prefer to have a SIM with a wide or narrow breadth.
    By this I mean a narrow breadth would be have 1 route and get it perfect with all the possible locos to make it as realistic as possible, with sidings loops etc. Wide breadth would be to have 1 loco each on 20 different routes.I guess DTG are somewhere in between.

    Anyway, apologies for the long message Congrats if you have gotten this far!
    Peter

    Don't worry. Sam (DTG Protagonist) is pushing hard for them! :D
