    Hi, why does TSRE display all measurements only in imperial units? Could you please create a parameter to display metric units for the other half of humanity?

      I would love to see imperial units in TSRE. How do I go about changing to that?

        Metric is supposed to be the default. Try removing UseImperial or modifying UseImperial = false to the settings.txt

          Sorry, I meant the Consist Editor. There, the car dimensions and the train length are shown in feet instead of meters.

            Alright, I had to comment out the parameter // useImperial = off in order to get metric units to display.

                Thanks -- that was an oversight. The speed is likely metric but the label is wrong.

                    I found an error in the last build which was setting the MPH value if UseImperial was present regardless if it was true or false.
