Help:TRS19 Driver UI
TRS19 introduces a new Driver UI (User Interface). Many of the functions will be familiar to Trainz users, although there are several new systems introduced.
Contents |
General Driver UI Buttons
At the bottom right corner of the Driver UI are a set of buttons that will appear in your Driver sessions.
Driver UI Buttons Panel
The Buttons Panel provides a selection of buttons for driving your train. Different buttons will be available to use depending on the train you are driving; these buttons are available in all UI modes.
See Driver UI Buttons Panel for further information.
Driver UI Mode
The Driver UI Mode buttons allow you to select if you are driving with Simple Controls or Realistic Controls, and to access the AI Command Bar.
Driver UI Underlay Toggle
The Driver UI Underlay Toggle will turn a shaded underlay for the new Driver UI on or off. This may help provide some extra contrast to the UI in some situations.
Note: This has been moved to Display Menu > Interface Underlay
Track Profile
The new Track Profile feature provides a brand new way to view the track ahead of you, showing you the grades ahead along with a variety of track features.
The features shown on the track profile can be customised by right-clicking on the track, and then selecting the features you would like to see.
You can also zoom in and out to show more, or less, of the track depending on the speed you're travelling at or the density of trackside objects ahead of you.
See the Track Profile page for further information on using the Track Profile portion of the Driver UI.
Simple Controls
The Simple Controls HUD allows you to drive your train in Simple Controls mode (formerly DCC Mode).
TIP: For more accurate control, left-click and drag your mouse cursor up a few cm away from the dial.
See the Simple Controls page for further information.
Realistic Controls
The Realistic Controls HUD allows you to drive your train in Realistic Controls mode (formerly CAB Mode).
There are two different versions of the Realistic Controls HUD, one for Steam locomotives and the other for Diesel and Electric locomotives.
Realistic Steam Controls
The Steam Locomotive mode of the Realistic Controls HUD provides you with all of the important controls for steam locomotives, as well as a range of readouts for the locomotive's current state.
See the Steam Controls page for further information.
Realistic Diesel Controls
The Diesel Locomotive mode of the Realistic Controls HUD provides you with all of the important controls for diesel and electric locomotives, and includes a range of readouts for the locomotive's current state.
