Loco physics

[rainmaster]

Some locos don’t want to work in OR. The wv&o u23 is an example. Opening throttle to 100% just makes heaps of smoke and just moves with projected speed of something like 2.5 mph. If you switch to autopilot, it works perfectly.
Anyone got any ideas?

It would be better to post the eng file here.
It has a mistake in it.

Thanks Derek,

There is the eng file

WVOU23B.zip

Not sure about the attachment. eng file is too long for message. I zipped the eng file and I hope it is that attachment.
If it isn't please tell me how. Never posted with an attachment before

Thanks
Lance

Maxpower is in KN

It needs to either be KW or HP

Hi Geepster

Changed that to HP and it works. Changed a BQ23 that wouldn't work and its OK. As I find the locos that don't work I can change them too.
What about the other settings that are in KiloNewtons? Should they be changed too?

Thanks

The 1680 should be kW
Or 2250hp for msts or 2370hp for OR.

Depends if the KeyWord in the line is Force or Power. Newtons define Force. KW or HP define Power.
