Hey there! I’ve been playing Train Fever for about 60 hours now and it’s sure a lot of fun. Nice guide you have going, I hope you can make more 🙂
About the argument I support the “only out signal” approach.
What you have to consider is if and ever any train stops at a certain signal, will it block the oncoming train from the other side, be it face to face or the tail blocking a junction behind.
With the entry signal too close to the junction, if anything stops there it would block the outgoing of the train running the opposite way. This game tends to bunch up trains a lot due to difference in passenger loading times so it’s good to assume the “less likely” is probably going to happen. Every possibility has to be eliminated if you don’t want to babysit the line.
Anyways your guide is good for new people still, saves a lot of time figuring it out on your own. Please keep it coming 🙂
I guess the next thing on the line would be block signals? You haven’t covered that yet. In my first few days I couldn’t see the reasoning to put so many signals in the middle of the tracks, but then I went on to figure out the block signal concept. Hope a guide would help make more people realize the concept.
