[Suggestion] Arrow key when driving locomotive

Question

I'm assuming because the locomotive operated by the player isn't on a timetable, the railroad switch control won't (necessarily) be set for you to go the way you want.

My suggestion is to allow the player to press and hold the left or right arrow key while operating the locomotive to select the desired direction at the split. After we are on the desired track, release the arrow key. Simple.

It's a good idea - but not new:

(just 2 results that showed up when I *did a search* for "train switch"...)

I wasn't trying to offer it as *new* Kelsey. I was offering it as a *suggestion* Kelsey. Those other *suggestions* weren't the *same* as mine Kelsey so I thought I'd offer *my own*. Using *arrow keys* to select direction seemed to be a *useful* QoL addition to the game.
That's just my *opinion* and if I *did a search* it wouldn't have changed my *opinion*.

But, thanks for the condescending use of asterisks and quotes. Forums are always more *useful* when users "talk down" to one another.
