EU07 improvements

[Blob]

I'd like the wheel to turn faster when holding + or - as right now it takes a while for the wheel to do a full turn.

The brake handle could do with a rework - the first position of the brake is too weak and the next position is too strong; it would be better to have a variable area on the brake handle where you can select as much brake as you need - Maszyna did this well.

Suggestion - different interiors in EU07 locomotives - for example white paint and different wheel model for PKP IC livery EU07s

It helps a bit that Shift + Notch up moves directly to N28 and Shift + Notch Down moves to the off position since the patch.

I agree the brake handle needs work on the EU/EP locos, it's all or nothing at the moment.

you can also use your mouse scroll wheel to move controls,

Left click on the control... be it the power wheel, field weakening lever, wiper switch etc, and move the scroll wheel,

i find this very handy for rapidly moving the power wheel in the EU07.

It works on the brake lever, but it's is very fine... i.e you have to scroll lots of times to move the lever a few mm,
but you can grab and drag the levers with the mouse... so you can set the brake lever to any position between 'initial' and 'full brakes'
just the keyboard keys seem to make the lever only jump between notches.

 

I think it would be handy to be able to assign keyboard keys and the scroll wheel combo...  say press and hold down the Z key, move the mouse scroll wheel and the power lever / wheel moves,
press and hold X key, and the brake lever moves... or what ever keys you chose to bind to the functions.

There is prepared improvment for brake lever - there will be smooth change between initial and full brake.
