Efficiency of career engine upgrades
Which career locomotive upgrade is onmost effective?​
​
All upgrades result in different increases in efficiency. Only the three upgrade variants that directly affect the efficiency of the career engine are compared here: traction, acceleration & speed.
​
After specifying the current expansion stages of the career locomotive and specifying when the locomotive is serviced on average, in the upper area given a recommendation for the next upgrade.
in the lower area it is now possible to display the increase in efficiency of each individual upgrade depending on the timetable.

Why are there different calculators for comparing locomotives and calculating tonnage?
​
Tracks can have different lengths in RailNation. The standard locomotive computer and the standard tonnage calculator (left column) use an average value of 420 meters for one route. However, the actual route length may deviate from this average value.

​
What is the actual length of a route in RailNation?
​
All cards can be divided into small hexagons (hexagons). Each line then passes through several of these hexagons. A hexagon corresponds to exactly 63 meters. A distance consists of x times 126 meters.

Which computers work with what?
​
The average length which the standard locomotive computer and the default tonnage calculator use is 420 meters each way. This corresponds to a length of 6.7 hexagons.
​
Of the Lokrechner-Pro and the Tonnage Calculator Pro relate to the distance per hexagon (hexagon) and thus offer the possibility of a more precise calculation.
​
For everyday use, the average values, which are the standard locomotive computer and default tonnage calculator used, but proven.
