    Cab tilt

    I don't have any special type of tilt or sway turned on, but I noticed an odd effect from a custom cabview. This is the "cabview" mounted on a flatcar; It's nothing more than a generic side console with all the controls attached, no "bonnet" hood or shell. The method is to use the model...

    Derailment settings in driver?

    Anyone ever done a study on what the difference is supposed to be? Settings are realistic, arcade, and none but I can't find any difference at all. Go over a trailing point switch set against and the whole train derails, hit an end of track buffer at 1mph and it derails regardless of what the...

    Number of switches an AI train will throw?

    Wonder if anyone has investigated this - set up a double to single to double track configuration with opposing traffic, the northbound AI will stop at the last signal guarding the single track section, experimentally flipping switches until it finds a path to the next trackmark and a clear or...

    AI traffic train performance revisited

    So much for locked layers.

    http://www.trainsim.com/vbts/showthread.php?312599-Puzzle-switches Trying to find a faster way to make better looking switches, I tried reversing the usual method. Normally I lay track, make switches, then create a new layer and lock the route layer so when I'm placing and aligning frog and...

    IndustRail

    Been fiddling with a DD40, updating to 2.9 build, decided the first one should be for Phil Skene's IndustRail route, why not. Other reskins may follow, in real life the UP was the only road to operate these 6600 horsepower monsters, but this is a game. That's the unweathered prototype...

    Chicago Metro rapid transit derailments?

    Got a PM, tried to answer but his inbox is full, so I thought I'd check if anyone else is getting this. "Whenever I run trains on the elevated tracks i get a derailment around the stockyard. I tried replacing the track, but it didn't work. Any ideas? By the way, I love your routes and your...
