Kierwin1987 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Hello, It would be good to make a rules for Multiplayer. Now it is almost like a wild west, when all are driving according their subjective feeling and knowledge. Also within those rules good be good to mention for dispatcher if PT for train should be followed or not. And with this idea could be good that even bot should follow this. Some dispatcher are not following those PT and some yes and could be good to unite. Also those rules will be good for Moderators if something will happend. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelo Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Quote for dispatcher if PT for train should be followed or not Only the dispatcher knows what's best, and it depends every time on many things. You can't write a global rule for things like this. I, for one, often don't stop the goods trains in Grodzisk from Warszawa to line 1, instead I send them to line 1 before the ROJ coming from line 447, because by the time the latter has finished passenger service (and in the meantime I already cleared signal M3, inner start sig.), I can already clear signal O3, outer start sig.; and by the time the ROJ comes to O3, it's already showing S2. Not only this benefits the cargo itself, but also the coming express train from Warszawa, since the cargo will keep at 100 instead of 60 and lower, keeping the last SBL signal at S1. ...and, in general, all the fun in dispatching is in making your own decisions and taking your own responsibilities; if I had to follow incredibly specific, pre-determined rules for every aspect of the job, might as well leave it to a computer. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelo Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Right - I didn't even thought about delays, that was just the normal situation in Grodzisk when everything is on time. Delays can be one more reason to skip a PT - e.g. if the next train is very late, and the overtaking can easily take place in the next station. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it cannot be a global rule for this. It was just an idea for discuss. I wrote it becasue I was told that for trains 1320xx from Warszawa to Kraków it should be followed PT.

Ensifer Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 A line dispatcher to coordinate those trains would be nice to have. Even if you have a plan guy on another station can do something completely different. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulnex Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) I would also like to add some general suggestions as well. It should be in the server rules: Players who deliberately stop their trains and state that they have a possible bomb threat on board, medical emergency / suicide.. This causes massive delays for everyone. No standing on tracks and waiting for a train to drive "through" you. I don't know what's the reason behind this. Stand aside if you want to watch a train pass by. Singing or yelling in your microphone is very distracting and unprofessional. Keep communication realistic! No jumping on other player's locomotives at stations and opening the doors / general trolling. I don't want you to jump on my locomotive and open the doors while I am preparing for departure and going through my checklist. Pressuring other train drivers to go above the speed limit in order to speed things up. This is extremely unprofessional and applies to both dispatchers / drivers. Safety is always of the utmost importance! Edited January 31 by Zulnex 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that note, can't anything be done for that animal guy? He's just spamming and annoying everyone, except for a couple of folks who still find it funny - and should rather play Goat Simulator, I heard it's a fun game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can imagine that real traindrivers who had people on the track in real life don't feel very good about this. This is a simulator game, perhaps Fortnite is a better game for these people ? 🙄 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulnex Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) My father was a train conductor and his friend was a train driver. He had someone stand on the tracks looking directly at him waiting for the impact. It was a suicide and he couldn't stop his EMU. It's extremely disturbing and changes your life forever. Even though this is a simulation game, I honestly hate to see it. Whenever it happens, I go back in time and remember my father's story. 😢😞 Edited January 31 by Zulnex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
