Now that EN1 is completely dead at time of writing, are the plans to add the other servers to the dropdown menu at startup?

The train geek in me wants to look at the current in-game timetable clashes for the planned timetable. Ironically it worked as such earlier when EN1 went down for 5 hours, so TPV still worked minus any train updates, so I've found one timetable clash alone (to be fair I already knew about the one I spotted) I'm thinking more of when we get a new timetable so I can go back to the devs and say, this doesn't work, that doesn't work in the timetable.

@JachyHm Would it be possible to have a button on the button bar to switch between "Live" mode and "Planned" mode (the latter just showing the timetable without any live data) and even an ability to then print that data?

@Maty556677 Could you pass onto the developers, firstly my thanks and congratulations for this new version of TPV, it's certainly making my signalling and regulating of trains a hell of a lot easier. Please can you also pass on that the overnight 54xxx trains never appear on the graph.

Something I've noticed but never really paid attention until the other day is cancelling a route on a workstation (any workstation), the two initial starting options (ZD or ZW) are greyed out so to a newbie it doesn't indicate which of the two they should be clicking on, it just makes it appear like they don't do anything (even though they do) I'd expect them to be white (or red, whatever the design standard is on real Polish workstations) Also, if you select option "ZW" and wait for the initialisation of it, the option you then need to click (ZWP) is also greyed out Server: N/A Build: EAB 21/04/2024 14:12

@Maty556677 That only turns the sound effect of a radio speech IIRC (ie, how people sound) off, not the noise every time a message is received in the chat box

I've have an instance where I've tried to use track 2 from Kozlow towards Tunel, asked the AI at Tunel to accept a train over track 2 (left track) and got the reply that it's got a higher priority train to run and can't accept, at 3am with sod all around. The whole left tracking needs looking at at both, more so when one of the boxes is AI controlled.

I'd like the option to turn off the radio squawk/squelch sound so I don't even know people are chatting crap in the chat even if I've got the HUD switched off!

This actually seems to be a more common occurrence at many boxes where a left track train automatically gets priority over trains running right track This fault also occurs when Zw (either player or AI) left tracks trains to Myszków over Track 1. The AI at Myszków will hold trains on Track 2 at My_C until all left tracked trains have cleared Track 1. Not only is this unrealistic, it also causes carnage at Myszków where several trains get held for no reason at all. This also then stops trains that have just spawned in for actually getting a clear signal until the nonsense of left track resolves.

At the top of the signalling display for Dąbrowa Górnicza there is some randomly place/overlapping white text on the workstation. Server: N/A (All) Build: EAB 24/04/2024 - 14:12

When setting the route from Track 1 to Track 3 at Olszamowice, the interlocking draws onto more track than the route requires, the headshunt/neck that actually isn't part of the route. When a train enters using this route, this also causes track flooding/bleeding Server: N/A (All) Build: EAB 24/04/2024 - 14:12

Now I know certain trains had to be removed from the timetable from spawning due to issues at signalling issues at Radzice, but I'm under the assumption that this fault has been fixed now that the 412xxx services have been reintroduced. There are still some trains that still don't enter the simulation and haven't for months, I'm not sure if this is an oversight since the last update, or is there a legitimate reason as to why the following trains still don't enter?

If any of the boxes (Będzin - Sosnowiec Główny - Katowice Zawodzie) are AI controlled and 406xx is bang on time at any of these, the AI will hold 406xx for 141xx to pass, even though according to the timetable the 406xx is booked ahead of the 141xx EC all the way to Katowice main. It's very annoying if you're driving the 406xx and you're doing your best to keep good time, only for the AI signalling to think it knows better and shove the EC ahead. All that happens in this instance is the 141xx EC arrives at Katowice early and delays the 406xx for 5 minutes for absolutely no reason at all. Expected behaviour is that if the 406xx is running within +/- 1 minute of time then it should go ahead of the EC and stay ahead of it. Server: All N/A Build: EAB 24/04/2024 - 14:12

If you ask the AI at Sprowa for left track running over Line 2, if you happen to have a train also on Track 1 (correct line) the AI will hold whatever that train is at Signal Sp_B regardless of how far away the train sent on Line 2 (Left track) is away. The AI at Sprowa needs tweaking so that it clears Sp_B (T1) or Sp_A (T2) based on the priority/timetable order of the train. Server: N/A Build: EAB 24/04/2024 - 14:12

Happened again player to player this time over Track 2. It's looking like if Tunel just uses "Direction change" on the workstation at Tunel it doesn't work and needs to be a full KO/WBL to change direction. Server EN1 17:00 - 17:10 01/05/2024

Bukowno panel segment 07,14 doesn't show a white (route set) or red indication (track occupied), not sure if it's prototypical or something that been missed (reporting it in case it's the latter) Server: N/A Build: EAB 21/04/2024 - 14:12

As per description. Police (and other van type vehicles, think they're all Police or Ambulances, not really looked!) road traffic had not headlights or tail lights when travelling on the road at night (unless this is prototypical to Poland!) Server: N/A Build: EAB 21/04/2024 - 14:12

Might be a long time then until I see it again, needs Tunel to be AI for it to happen and the right set of circumstances! I hoped onto Tunel as a player as bit later, with Kozłów as AI and it (left track over Track 1) worked as designed!

You can add grass/plants growing through the floor at Tunel to that list

Whilst working Kozłów, Tunel AI requested to run a train on Track 1 towards Kozłów. The AI at Tunel released the line lock and the arrow was flashing in the right direction (towards Tunel) but it never then sent WBL. The only way to resolve was to leave and rejoin after which point the left line running had been accepted by the Kozłów (as AI) Also noted that once track 1 was in left line running, there is no way to press the "Allow left track running" button to clear signal Y Server: EN1 ~0020hrs-0030hrs (UTC+1) Build: EAB 21/04/2024 14:12

If Juliusz (as player controlled) requests the line lock on Track 2, a train then enters the section at Juliusz, if the player at Juliusz then disconnects with the train now in section, at Dorota the line lock bell sounds and the line lock arrow extinguishes.

Same here in the UK if in the rare possibility that signalling system let you actually do it. (the majority of installations won't without a timeout of either 2 or 3 minutes)

If that was how they did it then that's a bit naughty, especially had the second train been player controlled as you drive to the condition of signals displayed (speed, braking point, location to stop at etc etc), a clear signal indication tells the driver the signal section is clear of any other trains and by someone fooling the system like that is just sh*t signalling.... Rather than just waiting a few minutes and giving the correct signal indication.

Assuming you were on DE1, this is what the TDRS logs show, possibly just a glitch, I guess the only ones who could tell were the devs by looking at the actual server logs. Looking at TDRS looks like it never saw the Zw_C to Zw_H3 bit (possibly too quick for the API to even see it). Interestingly though what the logs do show is when train 73123 passed Zw_C and then saw Zw_G1 the signal speed shows 32767 (ie, vmax) (14:47:07 UTC) and then the next log entry shows "0" for red (14:48:11 UTC). So the only thing I can think of is 73123 was Sz'd into the platform on top of 40131 (hence the signal reversion as 40131 departed which according to the logs for 40131 was at ~14:47:27 UTC when it started moving). Zw_C also shows a signal speed of 40 for 73123, also suggesting the use of Sz or other shenanigans. The only reasoning for it not seeing the H3 bit is, Zw_C, Sz set with Ponts 11 and 13 set towards Line 3 (in reverse/ '-' position) and then whoever was on there realising it'd go the wrong way and quickly setting the points to normal (+) position and then it seeing Zw_G1. Again, probably happened so fast the API never saw it (Between 14:46:54 and 14:47:07 UTC), that's 13 seconds (where it's more than enough time for points to be swung) If it was indeed Sz'd, it'd be interesting to know why the train list never showed Sz at Zw_C??!! Log for 73123

I'd be all for someone being able to sit in the secondmans seat, so long as they sat there, kept quiet and didn't move and it was by invitation only.
