SimRail Developing Features

[SurvivorSean]

Looks like they have some very high ambitions. I wish them all the luck. I find it very refreshing so many countries can play together on these servers and their forums. Last night there was nothing but people I don't recall playing with passing by my tower.

Thanks

"It was a challenge and hardly anyone wanted to take it due to the intricate, technical railway "slang" present in the game.
However, as always, the SR community is reliable and Taiwanese players have raised their gloves, so #WorkinProgress"

Considering they have a team of 20 when I checked this is actually a good idea. Unlike smaller team or solo developers not everyone is or can be focused on bugs. Some are artist and route developers etc. Building a background with Unity does not require coders.

Very good news.

" We have already made contact regarding the route and trains from Germany, we will provide developers with editors.
We have been operating from the USA for some time, because the local railway looks completely different than the European one - in order to convince them to SimRail, we create an American real route and trains."

Very good Piotr! Well I'm already very excited of your Polish creation.

Thanks

2 new boards that I got to play with this weekend. Lots of fun!





Thanks

A brand new signal box became available today. Fairly light but could get more complicated when they add more trains into the junction. It is also a dominio board. Finally got my shot at Zaliwice but had to enter the China server in order to access since it's in very high demand. One of the drawbacks of not having private servers or single player with active AI worlds a la Run8. Posted some screenshots up on my Discord. Was a fun night.

Thanks

I was in SimRail all day and it appears some of the AI improvements are getting better. The server didn't reset at the 3 hour mark as I expected. I haven't checked the forum out to see if something had change. Noticed another signal box had come online and some alarm sounds had been added to the manual signal boards when a train is requesting a route.

Mixed freights have started showing up more as well on cargo which is a nice change from the unit stuff. Looks like EN1 is jam packed but still running without issue with most trains being human driven now. EN2 and EN3 are the only North America servers available and they have half the boxes full with a few drivers. Polish servers are just nuts. I'll check the forums when I have time later as there appears to be more improvements this time around that are noticeable.

Thanks
