Over the past year, the DigiTrains application has been completely rewritten. The new App's name is DigiTrainsPro.

The DigiTrains application will no longer be supported and will not be optimized for new android versions. I suggest everyone switching to DigiTrainsPro, available for Android and Windows 10, and soon for IOS.

DigiTrains támogatás vége - új app elérhető: DigiTrainsPro

Az elmúlt egy évben a DigiTrains alkalmazás teljes mértékben újraírásra került. Az új App neve: DigiTrainsPro.

A továbbiakban a DigiTrains alkalmazás már nem lesz támogatva, az új android verziókra nem leszo optimalizálva. Javaslom mindenkinek az átállást a DigiTrainsPro alkalmazásra, mely elérhető Android és Windows 10 operációs rendszerekre, és hamarosan IOS-re is.

DigiTrains 3.2 available on Play

Show the status of next signal

If you use multi-color signals which are able to show the status of next signal, you can use them in DigiTrains. To enable the use of this function first enable it in Dispatcher settings menu which can be opened on the top right menu bar.



Enable the “Enable to add start and end signals for routes in layout editor” setting.



After that, create a new route or edit one (as it is written above in Dispatcher game section). Now after the step where you select your route press save button and you will be asked to select the start signal for the route. After that you will be asked to select the end signal for the route. Then press save to submit your settings. During the process you can quit by pressing the back button above the layout. For start signal only multi-color signal can be chosen.
During dispatcher game DigiTrains will set start signals automatically based on the status of end signals:
·         if you change the status of a signal, which the end signal of an active route, then the start signal will be changed automatically based on the value of end signal (end signal address+0 and address+1 will be set to start signal address+2 and address+3)
·         if you select a route, then the selected route start signal value will be changed based on the end signal (end signal address+0 and address+1 will be set to start signal address+2 and address+3)


For Start signal you need to configure a multi-color signal. A multi-color signal reserves 4 addresses. The base address + 3. Be aware of this when add other accessories, not to use these virtual addresses.

This release has a new feature for Hungarian users, the Station announcements. With this you can play station announcements used in Hungary on railway stations. You can select the words or phrases from drop down lists and play certain announcements based on your train movement, type, platform, etc.



I would be happy to provide this feature in other languages, especially in english and german, but for this I would need help from local people to provide the logic (proper word order) and the sounds. Please let me know if you can help: digitrains.app@gmail.com
