As said, I am new here. So forgive me if I am not knowing everything to do with this program.
I pick a demo and it is a loop of track with sidings.
I get in the cabin and am told to "go until I get to the/a STOP signal". I start moving and do the loop.
I notice there is a RED signal ahead of me (top right of screen - cheat mode on) but as I get closer to it, it clears me to "continue" and I am stuck going around and around the loop.
IF I am lucky I get to the red light and stop. Usually by virtue I am way overspeed and actually go past it. However.......
It it "reset" and I am within throwing distance of the red light.
The first couple of times I didn't "shut down the cabin" and went to the other end of the train and became stuck there as I couldn't reverse the train.
I was then told I had to shut down the cabin first. Yeah, ok, fair enough. But since being told that, I am unable to get to the RED LIGHT again.
To me this is just annoying and completely detractive from enjoying the game.
I could upload a heap of screen shots but as I am new here, I am not sure what I can/can't do at this stage.
Yeah, I could try and hope for the best, but......
To me that seems pompous.
So, the scenario at this point:
I am learning to drive the loco. I am in/on a loop track and it is mentioned there are other carriages to access.
I set of doing the loop but the RED LIGHT that is about where I join the loop keeps going GREEN as I approach it.
So getting to it is somewhat impossible.
The only way I can get to it is basically speed the entire loop and over run it because I am braking too late.
If I slow down carefully to not do that the light turns GREEN and I am back to square one.
On a side note, after a lot of messing around and finding the screenshots, they don't seem to be numbered sequentially.
I have no idea how they are numbered, but when I have the window open showing them, they are in some weird order.
So that isn't helping me if I want to share them as their numbers seem somewhat random and it would make it difficult for me to know when they ere taken.
