iPanuzzo Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Just the observations about how AI likes to play with track changes while its absolutely useless and even more, it slows down everyone. (1) ZW-Lazy LA/LB I departure from ZW towards Lazy. I drive the passenger which is 20 min late (not my fault, have no idea why) and there is another passenger in front of me, which is probably on time. What Lazy LA (AI) does: it stops another train on LA entrance and lets me overtake on a parallel track. So far so good. BUT. 1.1. After overtaking happens, Lazy LA brings me back to main (same track which the train I overtake occupy) 1.2. Either Lazy LA exit or Lazy LB entrance (dont know who is who really good) sends me 1 MORE track to the right (cargo track going out from ZW). I check the map and there is no other trains in front of me. 1.3. I drive this 'cargo' track till Lazy LB exit, then Lazy LB sends me back to main. 1.4. In general I am more than 5 minutes late, because I have to follow 40kph restriction. The train which I overtake is also waiting while I am doing all the track changes. (2) DabGorZ towards Lazy. Basically same stuff, but this time I switch tracks 4 (!) times and I overtake noone (!) they were just waiting in front of the DabGorZ entrance. I drive the 42***passenger (the one which is redirected from CMK to the SosPol and further, but getting back to CMK at DabGorZ). I lost some time entering and exiting SPo and I am obviously late at DabGorZ. AI lets me enter the station in front of 2 trains. But before I enter, first I change 2 tracks (from the left one directing north to the right one and back) before DabGorZ, then I am diverted to the cargo line towards Lazy and back again. I drive 40 all the time and lose 5+ minutes, also those waiting trains do the same, because they have to wait for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowpig Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 same for Dabrowa Gornica DZA for 6440** cargo trains: unnecessary track switches when no other trains at station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazT Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) Had it the other day on a northbound EC at Psary with AI in charge, got the usual slow down before the box, entrance signal steps up to yellow and 60kph restriction, I get put on the sound bound loop and down to a red. A few go by soundbound and the AI then clears left line running to Pilichowice where I'm crossed back to the correct line for no reason whatsoever!
