    Changing the simulation speed

    Hi

    I have MG (unofficial 1.4- rc6 Rev. 108 (debug)

    I am running the "Era 1965 ATSF Passenger West" act on the Monon Line
    set to Era 2000.

    The train speed shows as 60 MPH but seems to be running a lot slower than that,
    about 35 MPH as a guess.

    Is there a setting in OR to reduce or increase the simulation rate.

    I have tried the Manual but have not found any mention of a setting.

    Regards

    Hi Daniel,

    Press and Hold [CTRL] + [SHIFT] whilst tapping PgUp (faster sim speed) or PgDn (slower sim speed).
    The control confirmations will show the speed.

          I now have the methods down pat, I have trouble seeing any visual change but will
          keep working on it.

          Thanks

            regards,
            Actually it is CTRL+ALT+PgUp or PgDown. Note that CTRL+ALT+HOME will reset the simulation speed to normal.
            Note that at the higher speeds it may mess with the timing of AI trains.
