    Steam Locomotive Coding and Testing

    Hey everyone!

    I just wanted to let everyone know that a small group of us are now helping Peter with steam locomotive testing and coding. I have started this forum to open up the discussion to others and so we can let everyone know what we plan to work on and get feedback.

    Our first task is to work on oil burning steam locomotives. We plan to build a SP GS1 class 4-8-4 and do the testing with that class of locomotive to start. After we get an Oil Burning Eng and Tender file working the way we all agree with we will then work on other features that have to do with steam locomotives.

    We plan to accomplish this by focusing on one thing at a time so we don't get too far ahead of ourselves. Peter felt it was only right to open it up to everyone for others that may want to get involved or have incite into coding and testing as we move forward.

    Hopefully with a few of us working together this will speed things up for Peter and the steam coding so we can start focusing on other aspects of Steam Locomotives in Open Rails.

    Feel free to chime in if you have any questions or suggestions for the ones who have teamed up with Peter.

    You will find some nice GS-1 photographs here.



    This scan from my collection. The original was a blueprint style drawing. It was converter to 1/2" scale and into a black and white poster.
