AI doesn't stop trains at the same place, right on a dime, 100% of the time, at least not in TS12.
How can computers and software lack such precision that the distance stopped from a track mark can change a few feet each and every time?
Computing is supposed to be about precise mathematical calculations.
I have always thought the human race invented computers for sheer accuracy and precision, not just lightening speed. After all, the American navy did first employ computers during World War Two for accurate shell placement of fired guns from rocking and rolling ships.
What I desire most from any gaming software is precision. Precision in regards to speed, acceleration , deceleration, distance, time, places and measurement.
It is a little disheartening when my trucks back up to a dock and crash into them one time then park so far away from them the next time that a forklift could not even drive across the wide gap into the trailer. I wish the Couple command would be slower and gentler too. There is no need to slam into another car at 5 MPH. There is no reason in cyberspace for the still car to even move when the loco hooks up to it.
