creating a railworks scenario

This is a simple guide on creating a scenario for the game railworks, to do this you must first go into edit (if its not highlighted then go to play which will take you to the main game screen then click the globe icon and click the locked padlock, then you can edited scenarios) next go and select the standard scenario icon and place it on the route, it should look like this.

Once that is done you can type in the title of your scenario in the name box, add a description, add a brief, edit the difficulty, edit the duration of the scenario (always set to 120 minutes), time of day and finally the weather. After this you can add the locomotives and rolling stock to the scenario, the locomotives number, water level and coal amount can be edited whilst in some wagons the load can be ticked if you want it to be loaded with cargo.

On a locomotive you can add instructions stating with the driver icon which allows you to name the consist, make the train player driven (by ticking the box, leaving it unticked make it a A.I train), add a destination to it and finally name the type of train you want it (E.G. express passenger, slow freight, light engine ETC).

Next you can add a event icon to make a certain event happen (timed stops mostly), i just add a message for the player to read, next up is the passenger icon which allows the train to stop and pick up passengers, to add stops simply go to the 2D map and go over to a station. Platforms are represented by a green line so click the plus icon and select the line, continue this to add more station stops, next up but not illustrated is the stop icon, its similar to the passenger icon but only allows you to stop at a place (stations, sidings which are represented by a yellow line). Finally is the pick up/drop off icons which allows you to pick up stock from sidings, to do this you first need to click the plus icon then select the stock you want to pick up/drop off and then select a siding (this only works for player trains as A.I trains just crash into a siding), once your finished making the scenario you can give it a test run, if it all goes well you can release it for download, i hope this has been helpful.
