Hello all,
today I release Visual EDR, a live multiplayer timetable viewer I am developing on and off for little over a year now. It displays trains as lines in a time-way diagram like so:
You see 144023 (bot controlled) and 93278 (player controlled) just meet at 18:44 close to Baby. 144023 has passed Baby at 18:02 and goes on to Piotrków Trybunalski while 93278 will have a short stop in Baby at 18:46. The color of the line shows 144023 is early (turquoise) while 93278 is on time.
A click on the train reveals more information:
71528 departed from track 2 in Łódź Lublinek, passes Retkinia without stop and arrives at track 4 in Łódź Kaliska. Retkinia serves two lines so you can see 514024 changes from LK 14 to LK 539.
Visual EDR can also display whole lines like LK1:
So have fun with it, discover it's features (manual not included yet) and let me know what you think.

Disclaimer
Consider this an open beta. Visual EDR should work fine with Firefox and Chrome on PCs capable to run SimRail. It may not be usable on mobile devices and it may eat a few hundred megabytes of your precious RAM.
