to those that dont know what im talking about you hold down in Railroaders case "V" and then use your mouse as the whistle cord to quill it no idea if this is possible in dv but would be sweet
#A whistle quill button like Railroader has

to those that dont know what im talking about you hold down in Railroaders case ...
The whistle in DV does quill for both steam locomotives; you need to pull the cord down until you hear the quill. I do agree because of convenience.
wet glen
i know but thats what im saying is i want a key board control for it other then the real cord
wet glen
yeah

For convenience sakes

It's very sensitive as it is now, (sometimes when you get in the cab it plays)
Oh
Good luck

yeah the cord physics do be like that, quilling the whistle in VR does feel really good though

yeah the cord physics do be like that, quilling the whistle in VR does feel real...
Yeah except when it flings itself into another whistle when you release
THATS why Swedish whistle system is better

Nah that's just the game spring physics vs real (mostly) non-stretching rope.
rich wing
Listen I just don’t like rope ok 😭
It doesn’t fit!!! Metal whistle handle on top
Whistles should just be like this
rapid rock
I mean, the rope pulls a lever.
rich wing
Yeah and rope sucks
rapid rock
But it allows a larger lever, so you can more precisely pick your tone.

Imagine having a regulator sized lever for a whistle lmao
rich wing
Hahahaha
Tbh imagine being so bad at pulling whistles you need to be baby’d by a rope
Let’s not talk about how I only have whistled once 😭
And it wasn’t even that design
But I could do it trust me bro

I know that's why Caden's idea is good.
Different pull cords would be cool too
Or another for the fireman

this, plus the rope is also much heavier than would be IRL because of physics reasons

you joke but this exists. mostly on late north american steam

I mean this is up 844 and it's a cord hooked to a big lever
rich wing
Yeah that’s better
But why just have a metal chain
Just make it without the chain and that’s good
wet glen
But why just have a metal chain
Well if the lever was lower you would hit it with your head witch is why the throttle forward is shut and not the other way around and if it was high with no cord they would need to stand to whistle
rapid rock
You'll notice that the cord will always end up at a lever.
The S282, rope -> lever -> rope -> lever.
rich wing
Yup

regardless, give me a quill key, please
