NYCTA D V4
« on: May 24, 2015, 11:59:37 am »
I just downloaded the updated D Line and I have a question.  No matter what train I choose to drive, there are no interior lights in the cab while in the tunnel.  You cannot see how fast you are traveling!  Is there a option in the route file that would make this happen?  I appreciate any help.  Thanks

MTA rules dictate that the cab light must be off when operating the train. The cab is supposed to darken when you are in the tunnel.

The speedometer would still be visible, right? I thought they were supposed to shine regardless.

Yes, there is a speedometer in the upper right hand corner of the default train, but in this particular route, there are always speed signs, station info or other things over the speedometer.  So, you cannot see the speedometer for most of the time that you are running the D Line.  I was thinking about removing these signs for the route file, but don't want to mess up a great route.
