Zusi/Editors capabilities

[jabaru]

Hi Guys,

It's not exactly clear to me from the manual, so I wanted to clarify something.
How capable are Zusi Editors and how open is Zusi for routes from other countries?
Manual is sort of "hinting" it with statements like "file paths should include a country name", "there goes your signaling", "you can do even more with plugins"... but still I didn't get a full explanation what it can and cannot do.

TL;DR: Can we do other countries with different signaling and train protection systems?

TL;DR: Can we do other countries with different signaling

Yes.

...and train protection systems?

Yes, as long as it is ETCS

[jabaru]

Yes, as long as it is ETCS

ETCS would work, as long as it is ATB

On the other hand, paraphrasing after Wikipedia: ATB-NG [...] operates nearly equal to ETCS Level 1.
So... there's hope...

If routes in foreign countries are built (and the progress of the project is promising) I will try to integrate the systems into the simulator.
