grazias Manuel :) and so we reach...update beta v20
A new screen added that replaces parts of the View-Details screen
the products are replaced by many settings for Lights

-=[View-Lights]=-:
-HeadLights on/off (c)(a)
the (c) current train, (a) all trains(with driver) in your session
-Highbeam full/dim (c)(a)
dim those often too bright lamps
-Headlight Beam Color: <R>,<G>,<B>, (c)(a)
here you can "live" finetune, the Beam color in steps of 0.1
warning! fun and addictive!
-Interior light on/off (c)(a)
switches night-meshes and interior light if they are in the train models
-Cabin light forward/backward/ off (f)(e)
only works if the loco has default-night-forward or backward meshes

-Door switches on this screen expanded to also do some boxcars (if named door-left,door-right)
(req. in suggestion boxcar) and cabin doors for 7 locs I have not released yet.

the -=[View-Lights]=- screen can be reached by pressing the (<)) icon on the HUD screen
click again closes it, as does changing camera focus or the (x) right-top.


note! the AI often does automated things with headlights and night-meshes
too much to my liking, but cannot change/override that.
Just trying to unlock many features in trainz which are normally harder to reach,
in a hopefully user-friendly way.


At various places safeguards have been added to prevent array out of bounds
specially for the 5 camera buttons.

Will give this rule a try - thank you for your efforts. Also, is the Eurostar available to download?

Thanks,
Paul
 
Thanks people


Have a few hundred trains here that I have not released yet, why?
I'm very critical of my own work, don't have to and want to mass produce
constant learn more and want to use that knowledge for my models
So i can work on a set, then take a break, resume the work as i know more.


The Eurostar E320 set is quite far,(development pics on trainzonline forum content creation)
http://www.trainzonline.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=2252

I use feedback from forum and have real life train drivers among my friends
Still need to do the cabin, I want real working cabs only.


If you people have suggestions or ideas for Set-Driver-Conditions-Rule, let me know
maybe I should make an instruction video :)
greetings GM
 
Very nice model, G.M! All those rounded surfaces must be difficult to optimize for performance without looking like a Lego kit.

I've visited your Trainzonline.nl and downloaded lots of good stuff. :)

Only a little update, beta v21, cause I made an error
With the new camera buttons, the tracking-view went back to line-view after the 2nd click
this has been corrected. sorry for that.

Added a (c) button, which brings you to the frontmost vehicle(often a loco) inside the cabin
same as (1) internal, but some trains also have internal views in passenger wagons
Now both can be reached and used.


Added the (o) button, I call it omniview, this is a cinematic slow rotating camera around the current target
click again and it goes faster, click (c)(1)(3)(m) and it stops. Click another vehicle and it circles there.
it even works with the (n) nextview, so you circle around your next target(signal, junction etc.).


i tried the built-in "Cinematic Camera" rule, maybe I don't understand it or it does not do what I want
so that's why this alternative. It's fun to use when making a movie.

Beta update 22 (goodbye to the old year)


Base settings screen (edit session): Junction info.
Added an extra option you can set, when you drive a session, junction arrows and numbers are off
This is the same as pressing [Ctrl] H playing a session.
It only works if this rule is opened (not minimised)
also improved the visibility in TANE session setup.



Trainlist screen: Derailment
Added a setting for the 3 Derailment modes: None, Arcade, Real
every click moves to the next mode.


Count/Info screen (?)
Rewrote the trigger count using AsyncSearch, sadly it is hard-limited(by n3v) to 1000 results
that's why some driver commands now grey-out and I cannot use it for the other (c) counts


Layer screen: Board X,Y
Added readout for Board X,Y, it only updates when the trainlist updates
it shows you on which baseboard you are (board 0,0 is the first board in the route)
for this to work, both the HUDscreen and the Layerscreen(L) needs to be open.

In a future version it may be possible to also go there when entering the numbers,
so far that only works since 19SP4, so not integrated in this version yet.
It will however then no longer work in TANE. (don't like, but consider 2 versions)


HUD screen: camera -
An extra camerabutton is added (-) I call it walkview.
it is a free roaming camera with a level view, it behaves different
based on the view you came from, try it and see if you like it.

View-Detail screen: 3D viewer
Added a button (ʤ) that will open a transparent 3d-viewer,
here you can see a preview of all traincars in your current train
use the < and > buttons to move between parts of the train
You can zoom, rotate in all directions using keys or mouse.
It closes when you select another traincar in game, or the (x) on the viewdetails screen
a lil movie: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/422905309116497920/1045716447730606110/sdcr3d.mp4


View-Lights screen: pantos
Added options to set pantoheight for my new trains that have non-pantograph pantos...huh???
why? French catenary wire is higher than german and dutch, english is even lower
[ < 15 > ]
< lowers the pantograph, 1 frame
15 = number of frames in the panto animation and after setting shows the current panto animation frame
> lifts the pantograph, 1 frame
This currently works on my beta trainsets you can find in the French forum (Ouigo beta and Carmilion beta)
OuigoES (spanish forum) and the orange TGV on the DLS updated by frogpipe


Known issues:
-it can be used in TANE, TRS19, TRS22 and plus, so it uses some older functions, ignore any warning
-sometimes a screen background is black, open and close a few times fixes it
-since SP4 the minimap in driver lost functionality by moving the settings to some submenu
-no-one will use/need all functions in this rule, see it as a Trainz-toolbox,
for those that create content, routes/sessions or drive big routes with many trains
