N3V why disable derailments?
why not try to make them more smart and advanced
but downside it it would take months or even a year to get that advanced , scrpiting etc etc
I want to see the variety of trains I see in real life represented in the sim.
I hope in time new content can be addressed as my allegiance truly lies with Trainz. I would love to have Surveyor level tools with the content of the other games.
I used to dabble in content creation and have tried out Blender and PBR. I found it too complex for the time I had available.
In my latest project I have switched to using PBR textures exclusively. It was an initial learning curve but the results are impressive (in my opinion).
Inspired me to go look and download a few....liked then so much have gone for broke and now, like you, will use them exclusively.
Like most Trainzers, I understand that it takes time & money for N3V to devolope new features and improve existing features, within the Sim.
That said, one thing that got my blood boiling quite a while ago was N3V changing the UNDO/REDO buttom in TS2019 & TS2022, to hide it in a drop down menu. When in Tane Surveyor, I would use this buttom more than twice as much as all the other buttons combined. For that reason alone, I still only "build" in Tane, not TS2019.
So as far as I am personally concerned, N3V has "taken a feature away, rather than added one" (Yes, I'm aware of a hot key option). IMHO, this was a backward step by N3V. Even tho lots of the community voiced their amazement & disapproval, N3V never listened. (Whatever happened to the customer is always right?)...
Maybe one day we might see the simple Undo/Redo button reinstalled in it's rightful place (as a button) in the left hand TOP side of Surveyor. (Boy, does that feel good getting that off my chest, again)... I was up half the night debating with me, myself & I as too whether I should post this post or not. "I" won out!!! :hehe:
Now where were we???
Cheers, Mac...
Rephrasing that it sounds like you’re saying “here’s a really great feature that I want, but I don’t want to pay more than I have to for it, and I don’t want to wait for it either.”
You will be able to purchase S20 in a future edition when it’s gone through more iterations and polish. Trainz Plus gives you this feature and more new features that we will be adding regularly.
If you want to access it now, you need to support the ongoing development by becoming a member.
This isn’t quite right. To start, the $70 a year includes an FCT, so there’s really only half that amount attributed to the game. You also get all the TANE and TRS19 built-in content, so for users who haven’t purchased those two versions, there is a huge amount of additional content.
In addition, there are new features added on a regular basis, so for next year’s sub, you get several more features. In other words you’re not buying the product off the shelf like TRS22.
It isn’t as big a graphical change as in the past, that is true. However, there are new features, and the content included is a step up from previous releases as well. It has been built to take advantage of the latest engine features, and the value based upon regular DLC pricing makes “just a content release” worth while in any case.
But this approach ignores all the new features, bug fixes and optimisations.
New TRS22 features for TRS19 Platinum users means MPS and new bulk update tools, while for TRS19 users it also means UDS, cameras, Content Store are new.
Sure, but it’s costing you less than 20 cents a day, and you’re getting regular feature and content updates. Conversely, if you purchase Trainz once every 3 years, you save money, but have to wait to get all the new features Trainz Plus have been enjoying as a benefit of their ongoing subs.
No, this won’t happen. With the release of MPS for TRS22 users, ongoing compatibility is required so that all players can connect to our servers.
No. This is a major red herring and something I can very clearly state will not occur.
I’m not sure where this concept has come from. We’ve always promised Service Packs to address any issues that arise and we’ve sometimes added features into the mix.
No. TRS19 has not had MPS as a feature. Perhaps you might be referring to Trainz Plus during the TRS19 era.
If you check back to Kickstarter project, you see these “Promises” were, in fact, “Stretch goals”. Insufficient crowdfunding meant those goals were not reached. And there is a list of 1,000+ other features that people would like to see, but not enough people prepared to pay for them to be developed.
I’m not sure what you’re referring to.
Only you can determine the value you perceive. From our perspective, one new version of Trainz every 3 years doesn’t keep the ship afloat. If the alternative is no more Trainz, what do you think then?... How exactly? We’re a private company, but basically everything we earn is reinvested in new features and products... I totally disagree. The worst thing for Trainz users would be no further development of Trainz. The growing membership base are supporting more and more of the ongoing development of Trainz. Non-members simply need to wait until there's a product they're happy to pay for in the store. We know not everyone will buy every product, but we also know that with more and more people seeing value in memberships, we've been able to expand our dev team further. So surely a good thing for Trainz.

Accepted? Predatory? Really?
Memberships are optional. If you want more features more quickly, then choose Trainz Plus. If you want more content as well, choose Gold Class.
If you want to pay once-off as each new major product is released, and not receive the subscription benefits, feel free to keep doing that
I’m all ears.
I agree. So how much is it worth to you per day to enjoy that product and to support the developer to make it better? You pay your ISP provider each month, and I expect that it’s a lot more than $8/mth.
We currently do not allow Scrapbooks in payware routes to be used in other routes. We have been told that this practice is unfair and should be dropped. You’re suggesting the opposite, that we should not allow Scrapbooks to be used in any other route.
Given users can currently merge non-payware routes, I don’t see this as a new issue.
