Searchlight Simulations freight car updates
Posted: Fri Mar 13, 2026 11:56 amAll freight packs have been updated to include the following changes;
Blueprint braking force adjustments to better reflect ideal tread braking performance.
Scripting updates to include provisions for new physics calculations over train length. This should fix the slumping of train performance when on undulating gradients once addressed in pending locomotive updates and future products.
Blueprint adjustment to ACF 2 Bay Hoppers to address a bounding box issue. (The cars were too fat)
New ACF 5000 Cu.ft. Pressure Differential hopper added to Pack 3. Used in starch/powdered product service.
We ask that everyone re-download and reinstall the packs.
3rd party reskins will need to be manually updated by their authors or by end-users.
