Dark cab in tunnel
When you enter a tunnel the cabin will be
dimmed, it returns to the current daytime
brightness when leaving the tunnel. This works
with all spline assets Trainz recognizes as tunnel.
This has one flaw. Trainz detects the end of
tunnel when the middle of the vehicle is out of
tunnel. The cab is already on the daylight when
starting to brighten. Looks a bit weird. To make
the effect looking perfectly, we have build a
special unidirectional trigger which messages the
cab leaving tunnel short before the end of
tunnel. Place the tunnel trigger just on each end of a tunnel (it has a trigger radius of 20m), the
"tooth" of the trigger object pointing out of tunnel. The show will be perfect now. The tunnel trigger
is packaged with the loco.
Squealing brakes
If you stop with brake cylinder pressure higher than 15 psi, you will hear the sound of squealing
brakes bellow 8 mph. The sound stops when releasing the brakes or when the train stops.
Loco night effects
• Back lighted number plates (switchable with the headlights at night only)
• Step and walkway lights (switchable from cab)
• Flashing ditch lights (";" key)
