Thank you so much for your kind words. me and my team are ansiously waiting for that, has promised 😉 joking aside, we are aware of your efforts for new I/O devices so we will patiently wait for it. The logical conclusion of this will be having the editors and tools to be able to make content (route and rolling stock) suitable for the locomotive 😉

Thank you so much for this. I also have a copy of jTrainGraph

A few years ago, my team rehabilitated an old Giravions Dorand Industries fulll cab simulator that's been running for the last two years with a simulator software... ... but today, we have atempted to use it on our much loved Simrail. It was nice to see that many input commands worked. Some fine tunning is needed but we are pleased with the result. We hope in the near future to have an API that will allow us to get information to feed the cab controller we developed with an Arduino Due. We also hope to hear back from SimRail team. We just love you guys.

Bad dispatching and idle alert
Aldarion replied to Aldarion's topic in General Discussion [Multiplayer]
No. Didn't do it... _that's why i thought that would just be a matter of 'telling' the sim I was not AFK.. -
Bad dispatching and idle alert
Aldarion replied to Aldarion's topic in General Discussion [Multiplayer]
It is most stresfful having the control taken. It think the best way to do it would be the idle alarm to work as Dead-man-switch while a train is stopped, thus, effectively working as an AFK detector. -
XP for neutral sections
Aldarion replied to sf_giants15's topic in Suggestions for improvements [Multiplayer]
That may probably come later, but anyway, since this is DC current, you probably don't have to switch the circuit breaker. Just cutting the power. -
Last saturday I was driving an ECE service out of Warsaw. MY first scheduled stop was Opoczno Poludnie. Due to an erro by a human dispatcher ( I dont care who it was) the path was not done for the platform but rather continue on the main track. Nevertheless the HUD displayed the distance to stop and I stoped at near zero... called for the dispatcher to advice on the error (in between all this the originaldispatcher that commited the mistake left and another took his place). The same thing happened to a train bound to Warsaw so we spend 7 minutes there, trying to figure it out and even help the dispatcher. Now the main issue. While I was stoped, the idle alarm activated three times and took control of my train those same three times. As far as realism is concerned I believe I acted correctly in stoping the train and ask for advice, wether should I procees or make myself available for shunting operations to stop the train at the platform... (and there was an ED250 behind me) now I dont pretend to know PKP regulations on dealing with these situations, but what should have I done to avoid the idle alert and still remain stoped while the situation was cleared? (IF I should have remained stopped at all... wich I believe I should)

Simrail routes - the history thread.
Aldarion replied to giBBer8's topic in General Discussion [Singleplayer]
I'd say that learning more...learning the history of a route only improves the immersion feeling. It helps, IMO, to apreciate certain details, that otherwise may be missed or pass unnoticed. -
It is yet another facet of the MP. Worth exploring. Why not? why not have 'real' passengers? And have 'real' train spotters? why not create a point system to have all those facets into account? why not create a kind of roleplay? what would be next? maintenence teams for trains? after introducing random malfunctions???

oh I see. I was thinking that it the transition between parallel and series.. well..it is, sort of

Wow, applause for attention of detail
Aldarion replied to Mikek1357's topic in General Discussion [Singleplayer]
I don't know Poland... but I assumed that entire region to be plain... actually i don't know if that is so, or if the sim doesnt have 'distant terrain' yet -
Funny you mention that. I only use shunting after throttle 43. I've never actually seen or read about the drive style of this EU07 but instinctively I have driven her like I drive my regular 'tap' french locomotive with 32 taps and 5 shunts... but in 25kV@50hz. In this case Alsthom's manual clearly states the shunts only to be used after throtlle 30. All drivers I know state they do not know what happens ifshunts are used in lower thrrottle, but being shunts what they are (they result in magnetic field reduction) I belive that using shunts at lower throttle have a negligible effect, since they are effective when electric motor is at it's higghest rotational speed...

Than you so much for sharing this. I guess I have been lucky so far, since I have yet to drive in the rain. If that's the case in no time I will experience that... or maybe if some heavier ECE consists happen to come.

*boom* and an „Oww“ sound randomly playing (even in dispatcher building)
Aldarion replied to Lactic's topic in Issues archive
I can't stop laughing, imagining that we have a haunted game... of course I might get some dispatchers scared at night if i get out of my train and go to the dispatch office to turn off their lights 🤣
