I forgot I reviewed this almost a year ago lmao. Still amazing. Idk if it's too much to ask but it would be kinda cool of you could have an option where it blow its horn at random intervals - or maybe if a car is in front?

Thank you for the positive review! :)
I was just thinking about locomotive throttle sync just the other day. That's next level automation. Maybe someday I'll get that done.

I think I can. I'm not as familiar with those locomotives.
Autopilots for TEM2 and DMM512 are now on my (very long) mod list. I'll need some time to get to those.

The autopilot is designed to keep the train moving, but not too fast so that it derails. However, the train operator must set the cruise speed correctly. If the speed is set too high, the autopilot will try to go that fast and subsequently derail.
Also, the autobrake serves no other safety function. If you put a vehicle in front of a locomotive on autopilot, the autopilot will try to drive the train through the obstructive vehicle and keep pushing it. In fact, a very fun experiment is to see how many cars the locomotive can pile up in front of its nose and keep moving. :)

Thank you! I discovered I needed this, and figured I’m probably not the only person that would find this handy.
