How to control points...

Post by jojaco »

How do you control the cvl console, I know how to set the points, but atb just stays as 10 permissief. Also, how do you control the points in Simvliet Haven because I would like to send some other trains over there, and really want to get the freight train onto the metro tracks.

Also, how do you control the doors in Bergpark depot, break your pantograph, and fix flat wheels? Also, what do the different lights on the VRI mean?

You might find your answers in the tutorial, you can find that in the Wiki.
The doors operate by clicking on it.

Maybe you didn't set the points in the right order, you have to enter te section where your train is on first and then the desired section which you want to go to, it has to be done like that because of the direction of the security system which gets set on the basis of the order you have entered.

Most switches at Simvliet Haven are manually controllable with hand switches, you can control these by double clicking on them as well as the doors of the maintenance building at the main depot Bergpark.

The switches on the railroad track are controllable with the CVL, but this portion of the CVL is hidden and it's also an easter egg, so unfortunately you have to find it by yourself. :P

You can break your pantograph by driving passed footbridges and other objects above the track while your pantograph is raised and you can fix flat wheels as well as broken pantograph's by driving the train with broken things into the maintenance building at the main depot Bergpark.

By using the emergency brakes. The wheels wil stop rotating before the metro has come to a full stop, and start gliding over the tracks. This causes small flat area's on the wheels, which in turn results in a really annoying hamer drill type of sound when you start driving again.
If this hapens, it will be fixed when you drive the metro into the depot.
