Railworks Virtual Distance

I'm comparing how the virtual distance tool works at the network node with the same situation at the railworks module. The travel time should be the same, ok? How can i fix that?

Hi Maíra,

Indeed it seems to be a problem with the Virtual distance feature of RailWorks module. We are working on a release update to fix that.

Thanks for your feedback.

@Maíra A, it is the opposite. The railwork module is fine. You need to adjust a network node travel task to make them comparable. A problem of network node travel is its ability to stop instantly without deceleration. This causes time differences to module evaluated travel times.

@Joerg Vogel I don't know...have you sure that the Railworks module is fine? The real distance (1) and the virtual distance (2) are taking so different times to travel. And i can't configurate the locomotive because is created at the source.
