g Question about the fuel buffer

6 months ago

Concerning a single tier Electric Train:

When I power up rails and place a locomotive, it will charge, the fuel indicator increases.
If I then remove the power and drive the locomotive, it will run for quite a while before consuming all of the fuel buffer.
I would expect the locomotive to start coasting to a stop much much sooner, after power is removed.
The amount of fuel in the buffer is quite large compared to the amount of fuel consumed per second.

The fuel buffer has to be large for regenerative braking to work. There is nowhere else to put the energy if I don't.

Plus a very small buffer like would be expected would increase the script load a lot.
