 SAR Scenario Session Time Change  ArrowRightBtn.png
For the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0

How to change the Session Start time to any required time to match a seleted timetabled service.


When in Driver mode, the session clock will be shown at the top right corner of the screen. The SAR Peterborough Base Session always starts with the clock showing 08:00. The time shown has no effect on the running of any scenarios in the SAR Peterborough Base Session as none of them have any rules or commands that refer to the time. Clock 0800.png

However, you may prefer to have the session clock match the timetable for a selected run in one of the scenarios. For example, a timetabled train starting at a particular location at a set time such as 12:30.

This page provides the instructions for changing the session clock time to display the time value you prefer.



Using TRS19 Platinium Edition, Trainz Plus and TRS22 Plus

These Trainz versions come with the UDS (Universal Driver Surveyor) feature that allows you to quickly switch between Driver and Surveyor modes and back again. This makes it very easy to change session parameters such as the clock time.

Step 1: Switch from Driver to Surveyor

Driver Tools Menu In Driver open the Tools Menu and select Edit in Surveyor.

If you have the Annual Membership Subscription option for TRS22 (Gold Class) or you have Trainz Plus then you will see two Edit in Surveyor options - one for Surveyor Classic (the original Surveyor) and the other for Surveyor 2.0.

It does not matter which one you select here.

Trainz will immediately switch from Driver to Surveyor.

Step 2: Open the Session Editor

Surveyor Edit Menu In Surveyor open the Edit Menu and select Edit Session..

This will open the Session Editor


Session Editor The Session Editor contains all the Rules that control how a session operates.

There is only one rule that we will be editing, the Time and Rate rule.

Click on the Time and Rate rule and then click on the Edit button at the bottom of the window.

Step 3: Edit the Session Start Time

Time Rate Rule The Time and Rate has just two simple controls - the session start time (in hours:minutes) and the speed at which time passes (the x value).

This will open a dialogue window where you can enter the hour value, for example 12. Hours are in 24 hour format from 00 to 23.

Click the Tick button on the Time Hour dialogue window.
