Weather: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 16:41, 11 March 2025

As the time flows, the weather seamlessly changes. Availability of the sun affects visibility and outside temperature , rail wetness and the quality of charging of solar-powered equipment.

Depending on the difficulty settings , in Derail Valley typically within a few hours the weather may change from sunny to cloudy, or from foggy to stormy. It may rain, but it never snows.

Station offices around the world feature weather forecast posters . The driver can use them to plan their activities accordingly, but of course, no forecast is perfect.

Most motorized rail vehicles are equipped with wipers , to help clear the rain droplets off the windshield. They also feature sanders , to help improve traction in wet conditions.

Even long after rainfall, the land and the tracks may remain wet and slippery , depending on the sun exposure availability. Additionally, in high humidity, a sunrise is likely to thicken the fog conditions.

The speed of charging of solar-powered equipment like remote controller or flashlight , may depend on the weather. While such devices do charge in cloudy and shadowy conditions, the effect is the strongest when exposed to direct sunlight.

In particularly foggy conditions, the usage of high beam headlights is discouraged due to a pronounced glare. Low beams, on the other hand, are more suitable and don’t hinder the visibility further.

It is possible to sleep in beds to skip bad weather, but this is only advisable when not having active delivery orders that can still be completed within the time bonus deadline .

In sandbox mode , the user is able to select a starting weather for their session. Using the weather editor, depending on the difficulty settings , the user is able to modify weather either during gameplay, or only in photo mode .
