Superelevation - coming after all?

General discussion about Rail Simulator that doesn't really fit in to any specific category. A good place to start if you're not sure what category it should fit in to as well.

From the Toolkit Documentation, Track Rules Setup 1.04, page 4:

Despite what endlessly pessimistic people on the forum were saying, im not suprised by this at all, there were hints before that it was to be included but the complexity of doing it (because of the problems you get with points etc) probably meant it had to be delayed till they had time to sort it out. I look forward to when they too, but there are more pressing issues with the game to sort out first...

Being bashed anyway, I have to note that up to now it is nothing more than a line in a configuration file.

Yes probably more a case of the Docs not being updated when it was decided that Superelevation wasn't going to be in the final product.

RSD have said that it is something that they hope to include eventually but I would think it's highly unlikely to be any time soon.

My guess is, that if it ever works, then only after much harder XML file hacking. The editor does not support it, officially, it is not there. The docu says that there is a field. The XML document has that field (I say it before). It is left to the passionate hacker to find out what happens when you set it to other values than 0.
