Where to Start?

[MisterSir]

Hi everyone, I have been really wanting to get into playing more of Simrail, but it seems like quite a learning curve. I've played through a couple tutorials and singleplayer scenarios, and I now feel like I want to play multiplayer, but I don't want to ruin it for everyone else by being inexperienced with train/radio procedures etc. Does anyone have any tips or help as to if/how I should start playing multiplayer or anything else?

I would say first of all you need to know how to drive the desired loco. You can train that in singleplayer or watch some tutorials on youtube.

Then you need to know the meaning of the signals. I would suggest to have this sheet open on a tablet or printed out.

Maybe you can start on a map area where there arent player dispatcher to get more comfortable with multiplayer like for example Wolbrom area.
On this map you can see the available Trains and where there are located on the map right know.

Dont be afraid of the radio. its mostly talking about overtaking or red signals. If you are overwhelmed by some instruction the dispatcher gives you, then just tell him that you are new and he will help you out.

Thanks very much, I have indeed found that sheet very useful in Singleplayer. I will start playing multiplayer today I think, that is very useful advice, thanks.

dont be afraid to ask ingame for help too that do people way to less 😉 i would suggest to drive firstly with the full HUD activated after a while you learn the track and the signals so you can drive without it 😄

Thanks for that, I definitely am looking forward to when I can know the track well enough to be able to drive with the HUD off.
