Let the party commence!

I'm ready for it and I hope a lot of folks are similarly. 😄

In all likelihood we'll lock up the board within no time with a lot of new drivers and dispatchers. In which case: don't panic! 😁

I'll try to be around to help clear out boards and push forward the trains. So let her rip! 🚄

An interesting observation:

It looks like the AI is able to lock up itself already 😄 At the moment where we have no players, you are able to observe the AI dispatchers and AI drivers play along on the various servers on the Simrail live-map.

It appears that the single-tracked line between Sosnowiec Dandowka and Sosnowiec Poludniowy is forming a gridlock of some sort. Currently looking at the DE1 server, there are trains is a huge queue between Sosnowiec Glowny and Katowice. I am counting 11 trains on the right-side track from Katowice Zawodzie to Sosnowiec Glowny junction.

Looking into the details... it looks like the AI dispatcher at Sosnowiec Poludniowy has let two trains into each own platform track going in the same direction towards Sosnowiec Dandowka. Unfortunately, a train is approaching Sosnowiec Poludniowy in the opposite direction, but now there is no platform available. This has turned into a massive gridlock, with: Katowice Zawodzie filling up all platforms, making it unable to take any traffic - Sosnowiec Dandowka filling up all platforms - and even Katowice Main has filled up all 8 platform tracks.

What is even more interesting is, that this only has happened on a couple of servers. The rest are still running perfectly.

I am almost certain that the Simrail-team knows about it, and I have no doubt that they will have it all fixed in time for launch today 😄

The result would be very interesting otherwise...

Correct, I noticed this too on several servers and there's only 2 or 3 hours until release....my guess is it will be a later release.

Also seems to be other lines with bots, not just the mainline we have been running.

As much as I want this to release today and be a success story for the developers... the only thing I don't want to happen is for this to release today with a substantial bug like this looks like, if only to say they kept their promise of release on the advertised release date.

There is no need for a later release. The servers are still on a 3 hour reboot cycle and it is "early access" so with bugs included. 😁

Don't worry so much, professionals from Playtest will work in these places on the map, not artificial intelligence, so I think everything will be fine. 😏
But Ai is everywhere in the new stations.  And I can't vouch for them. 🥲
