It popped up on my Smart TV this afternoon, the first time a Trainz video had appeared there. It did look impressive.

Thanks wreeder, but still no mention of passenger operations.

Mike.

 

[wreeder]

Yeah, I noticed that too.

Yeah, I was hoping for passenger operations. That is supposed to happen someday(tm). I have a feeling that this is more complex since passenger trains have interim stops and aren't end-to-end.

The dispatch window is nice, but I have a feeling it'll only show auto-assigned trains and not all active trains. Having the ability to see a driver's status without needing to look at each driver individually, and also for troubleshooting route issues such as missing levers and broken track connections.

After nearly 23 years, it is still one step forward and two steps back boys.

The other thing that bothers me about this is going to be on the same display with no way to move it to another screen which means it'll always get in the way.
