Penzance and London Bridge Mini-Sim 10/10/2020 at 17:42 #133010

6377 posts 		Today we have two simulations for you: Penzance, and London Bridge Mini-Sim. Penzance comes with no fewer than four timetables (1976, 2009, 2015, and 2019) and is a great sim for beginners and the experienced alike. London Bridge Mini-Sim came into being from popular request: the full simulation is better suited to multiplayer so this mini-sim not only has just panels 1 to 3 but also ARS. What's more, if you already have London Bridge ASC, then you will be getting a license for London Bridge Mini-Sim as well - for free! This applies to new purchases too.

Sorry Geoff!

"Will be" is the key phrase. I'm still working on it.

Apologies. I guessed it would be a manual process for those.

Penzance is odd though, I've tried updating a few times.

Is it just me or are others having the same problem?

Assuming you mean the ones here then I can open them okay. What software are you using to open the PDFs? Acrobat Reader, Edge...?

1803 posts 		Awesome news, but.... I can't find the London Bridge 'full' shop item to purchase any more?

Been looking forward to this LBG Mini-Sim coming out (thank you!!)... London Bridge 'full' is a bit too much / too overwhelming (same goes for Three Bridge 'full'...).

Hi Geoff.

I have just tried to open the signal plan again clicking on the link that you have provided and get the same odd black rectangle as per this screenshot.

I've just checked and the browser that I'm using is the latest version of Edge. I'll try opening it using Chrome and let you know what happens.

Update:

It would appear to be something to do with my Edge browser as when I open the signal number plan in Chrome it opens a pdf file which I can view ok using Adobe Acrobat Reader

99 posts 		First of all: Thank you so much! I've been waiting for a London Bridge Mini-sim, not even knowing it was coming!

I don't own the London Bridge sim, as it's too complicated for me. If I'm buying the London Bridge Sim, do I get a license for the mini-sim as well? Or does that only apply if you've already bought the London bridge license before the release of the mini-sim?

So yes, if you buy the full version of London Bridge you'll get a London Bridge Mini license chucked in for free.

1803 posts 		Any chance of hot keys 1, 2, and 3 being added to London Bridge mini, please? :)

Also, the product details for London Bridge 'mini' says that London Bridge 'full' "is only £10 more", when in actual fact it is £15 more.

Thanks - fixed. It was a last minute decrease in price for the Mini.

1285 posts 		I have downloaded Penzance and will sort a licence for it as soon as I have some money in the bank. Good to see Cornwall making an entrance on SimSig but it is, I hope, only a beginning. Time will tell: in the meantime thanks to those involved with the creation and testing of both sims.
