I had intended to start a blog on Steam in Trainz long ago but I guess better now than never. After years of delays, I finally started writing a new program to combine into one location several projects I worked on: 1st an old program I wrote over a decade ago to predict steam loco performance; 2nd the steam-engine espec spreadsheets I developed and use for Trainz (always a wip) and 3rd my testing scripts and post processing spreadsheets I use to determine the performance of the model steam loco simulation in Trainz.
Some rules at the top:
1. This blog will be a read only area.
2. I will discuss work I've done and my conclusion.
3. Discussion and comments from others will be possible but confined to the forum(s) areas. As of now I have not decided the exact location but probably in the kickstarter or dev forums. Content creators forum is another possibility though I expect anything there will be concerned primarily with steam-engine espec construction.
4. I'm interested in facts, figures, science and engineering. If you can't back up opinions with facts and science don't expect to convince me of your point of view.
5. If you hold the opinion that this is just a game so why even bother well this blog is not for you so just move on with my thanks.
