Welcome to the Train Simulator Developer DocumentationThis documentation should be considered as a Work in Progress. While we make every effort to be accurate in this documentation, we do not attempt to claim it to be comprehensive. The tools described here are complex, and there are many other variables which affect the behaviour of the software (such as third-party software and your own computer's configuration); therefore it is not possible to document all aspects of the software fully. This detailed reference follows on from the Creator Manual supplied with Train Simulator, and gives detailed information on how to create your own Routes, Scenarios, Rolling Stock, In-Game Assets, Signalling Systems - in short everything you need to create your own virtual railway. Using this DocumentationUse the menu to the left for broadly navigating to the section you require. To view a complete list of all the sections in this documentation, click the Reference Manual link. Each section and subsection has individual tables of contents to drill down into more detail. Use the Search box to the upper-right to locate information about a specific topic. The Train Simulator documentation will be updated with new material as we receive feedback. We welcome comments on the information in this documentation by contacting our Customer Support Team.

The following tips outline good working practices when modelling in earnest:
Please note that if you change any of the routes supplied with Train Simulator, we will not be able to provide you with support for the product until you have reset it back to default. |
