picked up a copy of trainz railways, but i have a few questions, how do you play this game, how do you know what stations to stop at and what time, how do you know when your next station is coming up is there a guard whistle. sorry if this has been asked before, any help appreciated. bit confused what im supposed to do. im not criticizing the game in any way looks really nice once i know what too do. btw you guys seem real nice i hope to make a lot of train nutter friends and be prepared to answer more questions , cheers steve .:wave:
I just want to say welcome. If you run the Driver "Sessions" that come with the game it should give you a discription of what to do to complete the session.
Hopefully
You can also create your own sessions to run on routes, but you have to do that from inside surveyor. Then you can make up your own rules.
This varies considerably. In a TRS2004 scenario for a passenger service you usually get a timetable at the start, and a warning message as you approach each station. TRS2006 and TC driver sessions can also do that but it's rare. It's up to the creator of each activity to design it how they wish.
how do you know when your next station is coming up
Fear not, it is all a bit overpowering at first. Read the early chapters of the manual, work through the first few tutorial driver sessions, then explore in more depth whatever aspect of Trainz appeals to you.
The Trainz wikibook might help a bit, especially the "Things You Can Do" section.
