So basically you have an automatic boilerman who heats your locomotiv, throws in the coal and watches the water lvl. You are the engineer and the manager and can hire ai engineers to help if you want.
NOT YELLING ON MY KEYBOARD ALL THE LETTERS ARE UPPER CASE IM SORRY YOU HAVE A NEW VERSION THEY ONLY SELL TO BLUE HAIRS GET THE BIG BOY KEYBOARD IT TYPES LIKE A PATRIOT ANY FUCKING WAY I WANT GET IT TODAY AND TALK LIKE THE MAN YOU KNEW YOU COULD BE @@KG-xt4oq NOT TRYING TO BE A HARD ASS BUT PLEASE PICK THE TREE OUT OF YOUR EYE BEFORE YOU TELL ME ABOUT A SPECK OF DUST IN MINE
It's a neat little game; I look forward to watching you play it somewhat seriously while Hyce and kAN get up to their usual train game shenanigans. Kind of a nice contrast there I think.
fun fact, FRR was the reporting mark for a company known as the Fitchburg Railroad which was based out of Boston Masssachusetts and ran on what we now call the Fitchburg Branch of the MBTA
Wonderful video, i wanted a nice raw demo of the game before purchase and you gave exactly that, no skips, no streamer face on the screen, no music overlap. I purchased the game after watching this and im now loving it. I did want to see you actually start the game though, so i could check the menu, but looking in steam i seen it was coop but would have been nice to get that info also from your video. Great job friend, ty
i made him some music for his game (i never mentioned this publicly till now). and he was initially working with me on it privately.. but then disappeared and quit talking to me.. so a lil upset about that.. left the discord after a while.. but trying to get over the personal part and just enjoy the game anyway. trying to stay unbiased and watch your video to see if i want to buy the game still.
@@KerboOnYT hey I’m asking for a favor. I have ADHD and it’s hard to pay attention on long train loads. And I kinda accidentally crashed my buddies train. So please make more videos on how railroader could be helpful for a starting out player
Minor note, it doesn't seem like the triple valves on the cars have an emergency portion. Anything above a 26PSI reduction doesn't net any more air in the brake cylinders. This seems intentional since the locomotives do seem to put 90 pounds in the brake cylinder, but the 50s seem like an awfully odd period to have both first generation EMDs and freight cars without emergency.
From what I understand the time period is kind of loose so we get a wider range of locomotives. This game is also more about operating a railroad so some mechanics are simplified.
@@KerboOnYT already joined! I'm taking one freight load a day right now just to get proficient with cutting the cars and running around. I did notice that two freight cars I delivered to Ela station the previous day are still there. Do they not disappear once you've delivered them? Or do they re-use the same freight cars when you take a new way bill for the same destination?
FANTASTIC!! Your series has taught me me so much. Thanks so much!! I’ve only missed one biggie and that was how you jump on a stirrup. I’ve tried F11 with both control and shift with no success. Would really appreciate any suggestions from anyone.
Hey kerbo I know on railroads online you highlight on things you do is there any way on this series we can see everything? I enjoy the raw footage lol keep up the good work tho your videos brighten up my day 🤓
I did a 3 part video series where I go through the tutorial showing everything. This series will be edited for length though, so not everything will be shown
@@KerboOnYT yah I have been following closely I really like how they included AI drivers that will help a lot I look forward to your next stream do you only stream on RU-vid or twitch also?
@@codyschenfisch2469 I streamed on Twitch for 10 years but in 2023 moved exclusively here. My streams are infrequent due to work, family, etc. Last weekend was a nice fluke where I was given a Railroader key and had time for multiple streams
It appears to be a hybrid of Derail Valley, Railroads Online, Snow Runner (fixing bridges &c.) and a DCC model railway. As an 'Early Access' game (which we all know can be both good AND bad) is it worth the 25 Eddies they want for it?
Whether a game is worth it is entirely subjective. I think it is worth $30USD even in early access, but that's just my opinion. The core gameplay is there and works. I have only ran into minor bugs in 30+ hours of play, nothing game breaking.
I think the best description of the game is that it's a model railroad simulator. There's enough depth to be immersive but simple enough to be fun. Like a middle ground between Run8 and Train Sim World.
The release caught me off guard, I was expecting and planning for it on the 15th. I almost didn't buy straight away, but then I knew that if I didn't and waited, they'd have likely lost a sale as the hype in my mind would have died down and I would have been content with watching other people's videos
I’m having problems with the train breaks. Every time I use them all the cars I’m pulling refuse to bleed once I turn the brake off. The rear most valve cock is in the closed.
You will need to move the loco and tender to a coal loading facility. The tutorial shows you how this works. You can move a dead loco with another loco or if you're close by standing in first person and pushing (Shift+R)
Can you speed up time? I watched this video a couple times but didn't remember to pay attention when you talked about the time scale 1:1, 1:2 and can't seem to find the option
You place fusees with Ctrl+F. This key combo is in the Controls section of the Guide, which I recommend reading. You can find the Guide at the top right of the game screen. Thanks for watching!
When you start a new game in company mode it will start a tutorial. Go through that and read each window carefully. Also check out the in game guide, it has a lot of useful information as well as key bindings. There are icons in the top right for the guide and tutorial. There is a 3 part video series where I play through the tutorial if you want to check that out. Note this was a pre-release version of the game so some things may have changed. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-briOC1oWGkA.html Happy railroading!
So isn't the air break functionality backwards? When you blead the air the breaks are on not the other way around. An air break system need air to release the breaks. When you bled the coal car tank empty it should have had its break on full not released.
That’s for trucks, rail car air brakes work differently. Each car has a reservoir and when the air pipe connecting all the cars is reduced an equalizing valve drops the pressure in the reservoir tank by sending that excess air pressure to the brake line. So when you dump the air pipe, it charges the brake lines. This is why bottling air in rail cars is dangerous. It will apply the brakes, but several hours later when the air pressure bleeds out the brakes will release on their own, so bottling air leads to a false sense of security. When you bleed the whole system it removes that air from both reservoir and brake line and releases the brake shoes.
@@konstantin7754 To apply the brakes in a train you reduce the air pressure on the brake pipe. You might hear an engineer talk about making an 5 pound reduction or something like that, that refers to reducing the air pressure in the brake pipe by 5 pounds. I don't know if dumping the air is properly terminology or not, but what I was talking about above was just another way of describing making a big reduction. In railroader you will notice that your train brake has a "90" on it. 90 psi is pretty common in North America to be charged, brakes released state of a train. As you slide that slider to apply heavier braking, the number will reduce. Reducing it to 80 would be a 10 pound (psi) reduction.
Sometimes my coal car got handbrake or cylinder but I can't release it althoght I use the cylcock lever. I think my PC's lag at the first time, and I try the sandbox mode, go to the internet game to try but can't fix it. Please help me!!
I'm not sure I understand your problem. The handbrake is either on or off. The cylinder cocks have nothing to do with brakes and are used to let moisture out of the locomotive cylinders. They are only for looks in game. The angle cocks are by the couplers and let air flow through the brake lines into the brake pipe. Perhaps you are confusing the two?
i love the game but when you wanna jump in to muiltplayer i dont have money for cars it sucks can they chnage muiltplayer where you dont need to buy cars
I haven't played multiplayer so I don't know how that works. They're open to suggestions on their Discord (linked in the description) if you want to drop a note there. Thanks for watching!
Hey Kerbo I'm not sure it's an exploit or a feature, but another streamer (I can't think of his name but he has very long streams) showed that you will get a report every day at 6pm. If you wait until 6pm to buy contracts you can go up to Tier 3 and you will get your 25% discount. I know it's too late for you but just so you know down the road and others.
The game has a great tutorial if you start in company mode. Ctrl click on a locomotive or car to bring up the inspector window. On a locomotive you then click the Select button to bring up the controls.
@@jwd8964 No problem. I found out a shortcut is to Ctrl+Shift+Click and that will open the UI for that loco directly without opening the inspector window. Hopefully they've added that to the Controls page of the guide as well
Game is intresting but... have one fucking problem. I can't buy a simulator who look more bat as a strategi game. Transport Fever 2 have one of the most well done train, so in that case why they do some nice game with so poor maket train... In these fame detail must be as in warthunder.
That was mostly incomprehensible, but I think you're unhappy with the level of detail? There are tradeoffs between great graphics and great physics/simulation. Computing power is finite. That's one reason why you have fantastic physics and detailed simulation on a large scale but dated looking graphics (Run 8) or great looking graphics with poor simulation and poor physics (Train Sim World). Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the vids! I think I'll probably buy in Early Access just to support the devs. One thing; I'm going to have to consciously work at not being annoyed that they're being called "Engines" rather than "Locomotives". Steam or Diesel engines provide power to locomotives. Small detail, but it's going to bug me. Otherwise, looking forward to playing and watching your play-through.
Your voice sounds like the narrators from the Polar Express 😂 if you don’t know what I’m talking about watch the first five minutes and you’ll understand what I mean.
