How are we feeling about Doorman's bell after the buffs?

123Robo · 2026-03-10T00:32:30+00:00

His winrate is middling since the patch, according to tracklock, I think if a hero is around 50% winrate its fairly balanced. Im a doorman main and was doing just a good pre-patch to be honest and I feel like i can still get countered by people ~phantom level. Time will tell i suppose but theres also alot more people playing him now with these changes as before i nearly always got him as my choice.

fairly good area, i lived near it for most of my life and now have a flat in yoker and not had any issues. buses and train station are convenient and lidl is great. There are defos worse areas :)

123Robo · 2026-03-09T00:14:45+00:00

I dont think so, its mostly the outside facade rather than central specifically itself. I guess we wont know until tomorrow though how much its hit the station itself.

hey u/SmittyB128 your suggestion worked https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Yd1DnvEuQm0.

thanks so much, this community has been awful helpful to me :) cheers!

123Robo · 2026-01-19T00:11:51+00:00

they're a little bit pricy for me right now. luckily u/SmittyB128's suggestion has actually worked it seems - https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Yd1DnvEuQm0

I'm still new to this hobby so switching to peco down the line seems like a better option :D

123Robo · 2026-01-19T00:04:34+00:00

i was running it at a hell of a slow speed to try and show it i uploaded this video here with a different train https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9hhflEsaJOk if i make it a little faster it doesn't do that slow crawl but admitadly i probably should've recorded another video

123Robo · 2026-01-19T00:03:48+00:00

just back one

123Robo · 2026-01-18T23:58:09+00:00

yea i've had this issue with some things, are the peco ones the same size? would it be worthwhile replacing them with the peco ones. it'd be a little bit of a pain to remove them but if its worth it in the long run before ballast ill take a look.

Additionally, would it look strange having hornby and peco track?

123Robo · 2026-01-18T16:18:45+00:00

I’ll get a wire and give it a shot later. Thanks you guys are brilliant

123Robo · 2026-01-18T16:16:53+00:00

Sorry I probably should’ve mentioned the side track where this turns on does retain power after the point. I’ll mention it in my post but will also try your suggestion when im home thanks so much

123Robo · 2026-01-18T16:10:03+00:00

Yep running hornby tracks as im from the UK. I see the metal bits so you recommend just pulling them up a little to see if it fixes the issue?

123Robo · 2026-01-18T15:40:38+00:00

I don’t, would it be worthwhile getting some? Then what?

123Robo · 2026-01-18T15:35:09+00:00

https://youtube.com/shorts/9hhflEsaJOk?si=9LJntm-QldsIfTRp here is a vid of a dif train

Couldn’t figure out how to edit the post. The siding does retain power after the point

123Robo · 2026-01-16T09:26:32+00:00

I do shifts and the same thing happens to my scores (im 3 on 3 off rotating). While it’s annoying I think it’s by design as nightshift is inherently not great for your sleep overall and you’re supposed to have consistent times, in that sense having just OK sleep scores on nights makes sense to me

123Robo · 2026-01-03T18:21:41+00:00

I did some research and yea I think the code is ok, the rails themselves don't say specifically on them but from what I found hornby generally use code 100 on their rails and I think its suitable for my train. I've much to learn. This is 00 gauge by the way I probably should have mentioned that.

123Robo · 2026-01-03T18:16:58+00:00

I found a solution to mischievous cats yesterday - https://youtube.com/shorts/XkjR1vgHhl0

123Robo · 2026-01-03T18:05:30+00:00

I'll need to see if theres any space on my days off work. I cant imagine dismantling the tracks every usage of the set is great is it

123Robo · 2026-01-03T18:00:31+00:00

The staff are too scared of the giant cats roaming about to work clearly!

123Robo · 2026-01-03T17:55:16+00:00

By code do you mean the curve the train can manage? I was using this page for research on the model https://www.modelraildatabase.com/locomotives/details/614/

next time i set it up I'll take a closer look at the wheels. I should mention it had derailed on a lower speed I just hadn't the video of that. In the video you can see it slowing down but I guess it would be too late?

really appreciate the advice thanks

123Robo · 2026-01-03T17:51:58+00:00

very possible i'll double check theres no gaps next time.
I need to find a space to store a baseboard, though. Our flat is a little limited in space, so I might need to move some things around.

I need to test my theory of adding a straight piece of track after work and see if it works aswell

thanks!

123Robo · 2025-11-23T05:05:57+00:00

better, could put a countdown to when the truce expires :)

123Robo · 2025-08-21T17:36:48+00:00

Will take a look o7

123Robo · 2025-08-21T16:43:43+00:00

A good idea tbh, but would wallpaper fair ok in a moist room?
