Hello,

In MSTS in the F5 HUD there you can see the ampére value, i miss this in OpenRails for kalibrate amperéneedles of cabview...

Or maybe i look over?

It does not exist yet, but it would be a good idea to add it.

I mentioned in this thread:

I am not sure if it is on the Open Rails road map yet.

Indeed,

But i dont know if the amperésimulation is right.

On EMU i have problems to have same values like it must be

(200 amperé on 70km/h)

But thing is that traction is programmed on ENG file's of whole train

On trains with 2 pieces of 1 EMU it is easy, But on a EMU with 4 pieces that have onley engines on middle wagons and 2 cabinecars...

Someone on this forum has give the solution/tip that for cabcars the value must be /100 example: 600ampére/100 = 6.0

The EMU's where i work on it now have 90kN StartForce. I have play with the values of "A" of engine file too. First 600A, 1200A or 2400A

That was not solution too. Ampéreneedles qo to quick to zero range.


On locomotives with digital kN display, and with helper locomotive(s) you can see perfect too that ORTS take values of whole train for that.

2 locomotives of 300kN Starttension gives 600 on that digital display. Normal it must be give tension of 1 loc becauze a computer /2 by locomotives with same tension...

same with dynamic brakes. 1 loc with dynamic brake of 150 kn, must be give max 75kN if there is a second helper locomotive... (information comes out handbook of some locomotives)

I try to make movies of this problems later.

The problem with the ammeter on the driving trailers (commuter cab cars) of the EMU links in also with this topic

http://www.elvastowe...__1#entry224280

Once again, no answer, yet, but it is another topic 'under discussion'

Hopefully we can eventually reach a stage where not everything with a cab needs to have 'motive power', but we can still read amps, boiler pressure, as well as brake pipe and mph...

These things are on the OR road map as Driving Trailers and Commuter Cab Cars
