i've found when a friend of mine (WAN connection) hitches a ride in my train, the train will stutter/stop when he gets in.
i thought he was just messing with me by putting on the brakes or something. is that even possible?
seeing the following video it seems i'm not alone.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6ngJAU2WPU
only happens when i manually drive the train. if i set it to auto to go to a station, it goes full speed.
it's happened to us with 0.14.18 with no mods enabled.
trains slow/stop when multiple players are in train.

Are you sure your friend isn't toggling it between automatic and manual as you're driving? Because we can't reproduce what I'm seeing in the video when we test it ourselves.

no i'm not 100% sure. he says he's not doing anything. he could be lying i suppose. same with that fella in the video.

i have to report that this is still an issue. i've had this happen with multiple friends when we share a train ride in manual mode.
doesn't matter if it's my headless server, or another players client 'server'. happens about 100% of the time.

I am 99.9% sure your "friends" are just messing with you.

if a dev wants to see it happen, just invite me to a game.

Ok, I found the cause and solution for this problem - it's now fixed for the next version of 0.15
