Dispatcher post level grading


Recommended Posts

Not sure if the difficulty levels are set in stone but I think the following dispatching posts need regrading. What currently decides what level or grade a particular location is?

Anything that is a traditional panel as they are more complex to operate than a workstation I think should be Level 2 as the minimum lowest grading, and then get higher in level/grade for things like sidings, a junction or junctions (not necessarily number of point ends, but how many destinations you can get to, ie, Line 160, Line 154 etc), a station or stations, how many true single lines where slotting arrangements are in place (acceptance arrangements) etc, etc.

Olszamowice - Currently a Level 1, I think this needs changing to 2 or 3 as there are some very important regulating (holding X train for Y train) decisions to be made.

Opoczno Południe - Currently a Level 1, this needs changing to a 3 or a 4 at a push, as in the current test timetable it can get messy which trains requiring the platform, and it's no more difficult than Dąbrowa Górnicza Wschodnia which is a 3

Idzikowice - Currently a 4 which should probably stay a 4 on the account of the layout, it being a panel and having two single lines off to different destinations, but should be the precursor to upping the level of Opoczno Południe shown above which currently sees exactly the same number of trains (on this test timetable at least)

Dąbrowa Górnicza - Raise from a 1 to 2 on the account of there being level crossings involved.

Katowice Zawodzie - With the current timetable it can probably stay a 2, although it's probably more a 3 on the account of the number of train and operating a level crossing, if the full timetable comes along with trains to and from the currently closed line, then it should go up to a 4 or 5.

has anything been changed on how you 'earn' your grading to work the more complicated boxes? 

When early access was first released, you just needed to have run the sim for x amount of hours in dispatcher mode, so some people would go on an empty server and take control of a signal box, then ignore everything,
They would be off playing another game or something, whilst the sim racked up their hours until they got enough hours recorded to operate the harder signal boxes.
 

It could be amazing to have a kind of exam you take to earn your next higher grade / promotion and move to operate the harder signal boxes,

I may be taking things too far into the realism thing now tho, but SimRail is way above the other train driving games because of its approach to realistic operations i think.

It´s still the same. But like many other things, this will be changed with the patch.
I remember reading that they want to implement one level system for dispatchers and one for train drivers. The signal boxes then will be unlocked by level.
