Wagon Part Lines at Halt

Auch wenn die Darstellung von Zugteillinien anstatt Zuglinien eingeschaltet ist, wird eine Standlinie gezeichnet (mit Farbe und Linienart des ersten Zugteils); vereinfachend gilt dasselbe bei Ein-/Ausbruchs-Strichen am ersten/letzten Bahnhof, auch wenn diese zusammen mit Zugteillinien nicht vorkommen sollten, da ja undefiniert ist, welche Zugteile vor/nach dem ersten/letzten Laufwegabschnitt gelten.

Energy Calculation

In the driving diagram of the train data window, the button for viewing the energy is now enabled. This allows the energy consumption at the current collector, the energy saving potential through regeneration, the energy saving potential through energy-efficient driving of all electric tractions as well as the range, the energy storage fill level etc. for alternative propulsion to be determined.

When assigning battery traction units, the property "no energy reference (battery only) in this route section" is set if something is not electrified in the route section. This property is deleted when a non-accumulator traction unit is assigned.

Integrated Train Parts:

For the display of the load of a train section in the overview of the train data window, booking numbers, locked wagons and the position of the traction unit in the train are no longer relevant; a train section is thus considered to have integrity even if one of the properties mentioned changes en route. If the wagon list changes but not the load, this is displayed as an indication of the non-uniform wagon list ↑↓.

New Mode for Adapting Tracks:

In addition to last year's enhancements to the path search options, there is also an addition to report this time. There is another mode, Move Stop and Path Search Forward.

The mode is mainly intended for reconstructing given timetables by manually comparing each operating point along a train route. It is therefore important for fans who "copy" old course books or book timetables, as well as for users who, for example, want to use given long-distance trains as defaults. Together with the "curtain", it also offers a powerful tool for experts.

In relation to the new mouse mode, the symbols for path search forward and path search backward have been slightly changed to keep the mouse mode symbols more easily distinguishable.

Take Over Trains - Levels Readable:

Up to now, all trains were read into a level/train group of the target network to be selected by the user. Now the trains are to be taken over optionally with their levels and/or train groups from the source network. The assignment is done by the name of the level/train group - different from the function add route to network. Only those levels/train groups of the source network are taken over to which trains to be taken over are assigned. Levels/train groups of the trains of the source network, which do not exist in the target network, are created automatically. If the maximum possible number of levels/train groups in the target network is exceeded, the user receives a corresponding error message and the user returns to the train selection.

In addition, it is now possible to display any user-defined fields in the selection window in order to sort or filter according to them.

Infrastructure Data Alignment:

Time and again we have been asked to update the route data without having to manually touch all the trains or even reload them.
If you already have route data in an fpl file, you can now replace the existing data of a route section in your network. To do this, proceed as follows:

1. In the network overview, select the route file in which you have the currently used route section.
2. Now use the right mouse button and select the menu item Replace infrastructure data of the current route.

Simplification for Vehicle Circulation

Regardless of whether wagons of the same type are specified in the wagon list multiplied out (3xBom) or individually (Bom+Bom+Bom), they are always treated the same in the circulation plan, i.e. they are equivalent and can be processed in the same circulation. Locked wagons and booking numbers also no longer have any significance for wagon train circulations.

FBS-Fplo-Konverter

The adjustment cancellation with change of day of service was made possible. In addition, it is now possible to set the multiple train run index even if several trains with the same train number are synchronised at the same time. Furthermore, the error messages displayed for failure sections have been improved.
