LU CO/CP Stock V2 test runs

[DrJimi]

Testing out the upcoming V2 of the London Underground District Line CO/CP Stock -- updated body, cab and physics. However, the driver must have gotten a "wrong stick" at Earl's Court to end up here...

That looks like a evening cab! Not a day or a night cab. ANd what are those numbers that say 12 and 0 next to the door open buttons?

Yes, it is somewhat darker than V1 - which I felt was too bright. The interior cablight is dimmer and the outside "sunlight" is more diffused. If you think it's close to evening, then I met my goal. It'll work for the majority of daylight hours and weather conditions.

The numbers are 2 "debug" digital displays that I'm using to fine tune the physics. The left (yellow) shows traction or braking in kN, the right (red/green) shows MPH/min acceleration or braking. Using these I can relate throttle and braking notches to "power" and resultant accel/decel, then tweak the braking and motor power. V2 has had a lot of physics tweaks to better simulate the train's controls and performance.

And the door open buttons are always in up position if not pressed.

Never mind about that! I read the other forum.
