Bluefox Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I am struggling to orientate myself in the game, a map showing where I am, where I am going and things like stations would be great. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMRAIL Team uetam Posted December 10, 2022 SIMRAIL Team Share Posted December 10, 2022 We are working on that. For nów there will be map available in web browser sometime in next week. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRD193 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Could I ask if that map you're working on could also display the train positions on each server? That would be really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyzwar Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 It will be great! It is super-cool feature \o/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle Whistle Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 That will indeed be a very nice feature! I'm sure a while back I found a link to a Google Map with the route overlaid, but I can't remember where it was posted or who posted it! So if anyone knows feel free to enlighten us. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the 17th, no map, hence he was asking again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFloxiCz Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 "Week" has 7 days, not 5 days. So "Next week" means, it could be released from 00:00 12.12.2022 (Monday) to 18.12.2022 23:59 (Sunday). So they have at least 1 day and 7 hours to release it, right? That's not that hard to understand I think. Otherwise, since the game has still a lot of bugs, I think that the map is really not priority number one. So it could take more time, don't forget that this is only expected release date, not final 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz292 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 i think what we need to be careful of here is demanding too much precision on release / fix dates, the devs are humans, they have lives outside of writing a train sim, they have families and it's almost xmas. Things don't always go to plan, what seems like a quick fix can turn into having to re-write 20 pages of code, Just look at tsw, they release on the date they say whether it's ready or not, and the first few hours of play tons of bugs are discovered, everyone is up in arms about yet more broken crap being released to paying customers, and half the bugs will never be fixed as they are now working on the next bit of DLC which takes priority. I often wonder if tsw has any playtesters who are not employed at the main office at all at times, or if they are part of some secret society with funny handshakes and signing contracts in blood. SimRail was initially set to release a year ago, but it wasn't ready, thankfully they delayed the release and kept working on it making it better all the time. And here we are at the end of 2022, with hundreds of playtesters from around the world, with more being added all the time, and to get on the playtest you just have to click a button in steam and wait for the next round of test slots to be opened up. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurvivorSean Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Yes they have met well beyond my expectations of replying to issues etc. There have been lots of issues that popped up this past week some potentially involving trolls on serves. With daily updates already (and you can see the logs now here including Steam) they seem to be very active in both the community and getting stuff done.
