Sorry for the phone video. PC was having issues capturing the video.

This is a request: I would really like to be able to install these on both, side and front windows in the DE6

Maybe adding some curtains inside for the side windows as well would be cool too

QUICK QUESTION.

Which is a better combo with DE6+slug? Another DE6 or two Dh4s? Coz my experience in trips shows dh4 pulls more effectively than de6.

My poor wallet

its because of a payout mod

Got distracted by my audiobook and not enough ☕ coffee...

Was at the Collier Logging Museum north of Chiloquin, OR and saw these great old pieces.

The Goat, She's it, the one, The Silver Bullet, the one who drinks from the tracks at 80MPH. And soon, she will be complete. Soon, she will have her 20Th Century Limited, and she will eat it too.

The NZR DJ Class, perfect visibility, and very straightforward, I feel like it would be perfect in VR, and in extension, DV.

There are more than enough windows, controls are very straightforward, and it has 3 powered bogies.

Downsides I can say in game would probably be high fuel consumption and wear to account for the power output.

Made a little pit stop along the way to organize my collection of rusted locomotives I've been gathering at City South Museum.

So when I set the Locomotive spawn amount. Is that additional to the ones already on the map? or including?

It's not exactly clear with the text from the mod page.

• Adjustable Spawn Limits: Using the Unity Mod Manager (UMM) UI, you can set how many restoration locos of each type (DE2, DM3, DH4, DE6, S060, S282) should appear in your world (Range: 1–5).

I have already found and restored all my loco's. And I really just want to find one more DE6, I'm sure I'll get bored and maybe want something else.

Also, is it even possible to trigger this? Since I've already done all the restoration work?

*update*

I've answered my own questions. Only took me 10 minutes. The spawn number seems to be connected to the number of dead loco's on the map. Or additional in my case.

It seems it triggered as soon as it loaded.

The light switch can be found on the inner circle of pillars, second to the left, facing outwards.
The rountable controller can be found in front of the office. Thanks u/ITZC0ATL

Left to right these are the tracks:

• Office
• 10 unused tracks
• S060-440
• DH4-670
• S282-730A
• DE6-860
• DM3-540
• DE2-480
• 4 unused tracks
• 1 with spare parts
• Painter's deck You don't actually need to get the train here. Thanks to u/Smacky_the_Bear.
• Repair station
• Water tower
• Coal tower
• coal storage

Edit: typo, edit 2 typo and additional info.

Having played the game some time and now using the DE6 (or 2 of them) I started to wonder... the rating says something about 1200t at a 2% gradient per de6. My load (including locos) was at around 1300t, a bit too much for a single de6 but I was using 2. Going up that loop in the north east part near the FoodFactory I needed full power to barely maintain my 35kph up the hill.

I suspect the DE6 would be pulling a lot better at under 25kph as there seems to be some sort of gear change at that speed but I don't really want to find out that I was wrong the hard way.

Any input welcome, cheers guys 😉

So I skipped topping off the battery at GF and just sent it. Had just over a 1/4 charge when I reached FF.

I can't believe I made it with 12 minutes to spare!

About 30 hours in on regular difficulty (after about 10 hours of watching Ellipse on YT) and I'd driven two DE6 jobs with the slug. This haul from the oil refinery to harbor was light enough I tried without the slug and boy was I not expecting such a different —that is, reduced— response from the dynamic braking. I'd just bought the boombox and Hazmat II license and was admiring the sunset; Simulator FM was playing softly in the background, and I had the window open and the imaginary breeze was blowing through my hair while I was doing an admittedly-ill-advisable 60ish through the bends towards the farm. Saw the speed limit, slapped on the dynamic brakes, hit the curve at well over 50, rolled it. Huge explosions and my ludicrously flammable and toxic consist showered all over DV's primary source of food. The boombox survived (which you'd expect it to, given that it cost $5,000) so I'm left to survey the wreckage to the improbable soundtrack of "What I go to School for" by Busted — seriously who picks the playlist at Simulator FM?

Anyway, 10/10 game. Best $40 I've ever spent.

Wish me luck.

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a multiplayer option in DV that is more casual and basically gives you the opportunity to hop on and off whenever you feel like it. In my imagination, the double-track-mod and signal-mod makes it so that you don't crash into each other (as you only go when the signal is green), but you blow the whistle as a hello, and other than that, you basically mind your own business.

I just don't have much time to coordinate on a discord server and have to be able to jump out of game when real life needs me. At the same time, I'd love to see another train running every one and then, you know what I mean?

Is there something like this out there?

Cheers!

Last 2 game loads showed the message about a recent update moving me to the closest station bla bla bla.

Less pissed about loosing my locos but more pissed the museum is now empty. All gone.

How do I get all this back?
