Atheramaja Let’s start with the dispatching Titan, ranked number one in the hours spent on dispatching jobs with the whooping 1684 hours as of the day of posting. Atheramaja was kind enough to swiftly answer my call stating that English is not his prime language and “not even my second language”. With this in mind, let's hear what the man himself has to say about the game: 1. How did you find out about SimRail and since when do you play? find out cuz algorithm youtube. If youtube doesn't recommend a trailer with title “simrail 2021” on my youtube when pandemic occurs i never gonna know this game even exists. Last day before prologue simrail closed that first time i play this game” 2. What was the first thing that made you think “yes, this is a game I want to play more”? After spawning on a station named Opoczno Poludnie (OP). it’s hard to explain but i feel i need to set camp there from restart until another server restart. 3. Do you think you would play SimRail as much if it had no multiplayer mode? No way! that just became the same game named TSW With DLC Poland. 4. In a game about trains, there are many idle moments. How do you handle those? Blasting Music in my ear. Honestly, not just idle moments when there is no traffic but also when busy traffic my playlist EDM POP from Balkans, Finnish, Italian, Iberian penisula, Maghreb & Levant regions blasting my ear with 100% audio nonstop! and yeah that's why sometimes the chat box (left bottom corner+dispatching) I don't reply. my bad. 5. Do you listen, watch or read anything else while playing? same answer as number 4. 6. Do you have any rituals before or during the gameplay? coffee and another coffee after that. If I don't have coffee, the probability I'm gonna make mistakes/Wrong decision/Wrong calculation who is gonna first get green is gonna be high when i’m dispatching. 7. Name one thing you like the most in SimRail. everything about Signaling + Switch can Vmax more than 60kmh! 8. Name one thing that annoys you the most in SimRail. Bad Schedule/Timetable. If the schedule/Timetable good, AI not gonna make a bad decision to set a route and no more unnecessary delays. example: Schedule/Timetable depart Wloszczowa Polnoc with Vmax 160kmh gonna be different when depart Wloszczowa Północ from 0-160kmh. 9. What is one thing, no matter how large or strange, you would like to have added to the game? DLC “up to date” infrastruktur PKP same as In real life. (CMK 250kmh, Warszawa Zachodnia new layout, Dąbrowa górnicza new peron, Zawiercie New peron for line towards Katowice Airport, etc) DLC Full poland mainline DLC Cross border connecting with existing maps Warszawa-Katowice-Bohumin/Warszawa-Kraków-Żilina 10. What advice would you give to new players? General Driver & dispatcher : first learn how basic railway infrastructure works (Aspect Signal, Signal block, Semaphore, Switch Vmax) in poland soil. Second, Geography or layout railways Poland in real life work for familiarity with Layout + name station. Internet free, Google earth free & youtube free please educate yourself first. Third, Don't yapping in a chat box or voice chat requesting a green signal with all due respects when you yapping first. That just makes a proof point that you don't have basic knowledge of railway infrastructure or regulation poland soil. Fourth, I pray when you're playing simrail. It's gonna be a smooth/nice trip and a good day for you. Exclusive for Dispatcher : give a normal procedure to set route green more easily than SZ (Emergency Signal). if your used SZ (Emergency Signal) means you messed up/doing wrong or rude word your fcked up. 11. What advice would you give to veteran players? yup. Veteran players can make mistakes too, apologize it’s better than feeding your big ego. Apologizing doesn't show your weakness, it just shows how mature and wise you are. when you become and feel like one veteran player cuz your level drive or hours dispatching doesn't mean you can be harsh on another player. yeaah…. I know sometimes some player action is gonna make blood boil but honestly be civil first or silent. Silence is gold and in that silence forgive them. or more fire choice is apply from book by mark manson with title “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck” last choice it’s the best solution instead make drama on discord or report player. IMHO. 12. What could the developers do better in your opinion? need rework schedule every update and don't follow ecosystem TSW 13. Any final thoughts or comments you would like to share? Need a 16 hour shift or someone experienced and willingly without forced stand by on Psary. Psary is the key train from north to south. (but if already late from north. psary can’t do nothing) Psary messed up gonna make domino effect delayed all train pax section zawiercie-Katowice and make AI choose bad decision to set route in zawiercie, Lazy Area, DGZ, Będzin, Sosnowiec Glowny & Katowice zawodzie. and worse scenario deadlock Sosnowiec Południowy-Sosnowiec Dandowka

Hello! Having my passion for the game reignited after a long break, I began to check the top (according to the leaderboards) players . Some players there really stand out and I started wondering what their gameplay looks like, what advice could they give to others and what they do and don’t like about the game the most. And then I thought why shouldn’t I just ask them? So I have reached out to several of them. Some have answered and some have not. In this thread, I will post the answers from the aforementioned players to the questions I came up with.

Na tyłach dworca w Charsznicy jest bar z pierogami.

Witam, przy wyłączonych wszystkich elementach UI (choć nie poprzez "G", gdyż chcę widzieć komunikaty), element "Poradnik (...)" jest nadal widoczny w lewym rogu w Pendolino oraz w Dragonie. W innych składach znika chyba po wyłączeniu wyświetlania profilu (F6).

In manual dispatching boxes, there are two rotational switches: - turn on/off the table - change the illumination setting (of the table) from day to night. The second one will change the brightness and tone of the lights. Beware though, that the brightness and tone don’t go back properly to the original setting at least in some stations. (I need to report that in the bug section but I have to check again at which stations this occurs). PS. I haven’t tried the first one in fear of bugging out the table. 😅

Nice, thank you. Tried to do something useful for those who don’t know how to read the phonetic signs. As for myself, I am afraid I will accidentally summon a demon while trying to read those (phonetically spelled names), haha.

Tunel: toonel

Charsznica: harsh-nitza (Pronounced as one word; added the dash for readability)

We already get so much flanger effect (the phasing sound) from overlapping sounds of the three circuits in ET22 already. Maybe it would get worse with those though they should be higher pitch sounds.

We had a discussion recently on Discord about the front pantograph usage for freight trains with dangerous cargo. You can see an example on one of the graphics from the Cargo DLC. Is there an official rule in Poland saying about using the front pantograph for those?

I can finally stop searching for it. I hope this helps people like me (not realising there is none).

Podobnie jak sugestia aktywowania bota: +1 ode mnie.

It is spelled "pronunce" and not "pronounce". 😅

EDIT: "dzi" is also close to the sound of "gi" in the word "gin".
