      Right, that is why you responded in such a manner.

        Either use OR or don't at this point. The constant griping about the sim not working exactly as MSTS did and/or having to learn new features is tiring. I get asking questions and reporting issues but this constant bitterness towards OR every time something new is introduced is ridiculous at this point. OR has truly spoiled us to the point where people forget that you couldn't often "open and enjoy" MSTS either and if you could it was at a blistering 12 fps and you better hope the AI that spawned in doesn't crash your computer. I've seen over the development of OR people request more and more complex features and they also wanted those features to work with both old and new stock. This is the result. You will as the end user have to do some work. It's not a "job," however, it is a free program you can choose to use or not use.

          These are legitimate concerns as someone who produces add ons for the sim. This has absolutely nothing to do with whether it's msts compatible or not. Last I checked, you couldn't run the MRL Mullan equipment or SP Shasta equipment in MSTS only, it had to be ORTS 1.4 or 1.5.1.

          Sorry this legitimate concern, is just griping to you.

          When someone holds the keys to all the new features, but isn't willing to share how to properly set things up for future add-ons, that gets pretty tiresome too.

            I believe that developers should view requests not as a requirement but just as things to do when there is nothing else to do to improve the game itself. The ability to carry passengers at stations(world of subway have this ), a dynamic career mode (after you finish an activity, another random activity appears, ), etc. I'm not demanding anything, just dreaming.

            One question, would it be possible to add a camera balance, in the cabin camera? like openbve/worldofsubway? when passing through an elevation/slope, curves or acceleration/braking? Would I have to modify something in the game engine or in the train mods?
