[ENG] Visual EDR - Timetable Visualizer

[xris]

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.

I knew I know the design from somewhere 😉 Well done mate. But whatever I try, I cant get more than 3 Stations into the screen, when playing with the aspect ratio. You mentioned that it is able to display whole routes, could you explain how thats done?

 

Edit: Sorry, I didn't scroll down all the way, found it....

For everyone wondering: The main menu only shows stations (I should probably change that). The lines are found in the options panel at the end of the stations dropdown. I neglected the line view a bit because I personally think it is not that useful for dispatching.
