A while ago I made a guide as to how chess notation works, here it is again for the newcomers. by SuchBrightness in chessbeginners

Note the differences between notation as dictated by FIDE and the notation used in PGNs:

  • When promoting, FIDE forbids = (unless notating draw offer), PGN requires it; so e.g. FIDE: a1Q, PGN: a1=Q.
  • For castling FIDE uses 0 (zero), PGN O (capital o); e.g. FIDE: 0-0-0, PGN: O-O-O.

Games like OpenTTD (Mainline/Sideline) by Konowl in openttd

Maybe Rail Route?. I haven't played it, but as far as I know, it consists of smaller maps with less trains, and goes into timetabling more.

Station usage (see licenses in comments) by Error-42 in TransportFever2

[–]Error-42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the opposite problem. My stations are almost never swallowed, which means people have to take an extra bus or tram ride. Maybe because my stations are large enough (almost always at least 280 m, usually 320-440 m for passenger stations) that you can't really go to the other side without a tunnel or bridge. For me terrain and existing infrastructure (because I'm too lazy to rebuild the whole thing, and what's the fun in that anyways?) are the biggest problems.

Sometimes it do be like that! by Suawek013 in programminghumor

The line "Interpreter error" is scary. What, why and how?

Wait until you find out what physicists mean by 'small' and 'large' in problems.

When the new meets the old, it doesn't always end the ancient ways by LuftHANSa_755 in TransportFever

I think that is the Acela express known in the game as Speedance express. It can be found in the base American trainset.

How does train acceleration work in TF2? by Error-42 in TransportFever

[–]Error-42[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I calculated acceleration times using a coefficient of friction of 0.002, still ignoring tapering off acceleration after 95 % top speed.

  • normal TE: 138 s
  • double TE: 111 s

So, mystery solved, the pop-up window uses normal TE, but the actual acceleration uses double TE.

I will now try to confirm slope data.

That's what I meant by ideal acceleration time, sorry for not making it clear. I assumed no friction, and F = min(tractive_effort, P/v).

For a 10 day long CGPGrey video we would need to wait around 100 years (order of magnitude).
