Check Power and Systems

1. Verify the circuit breaker is ON: Look at your dashboard and ensure the main power switch is activated. If it's off, the tram won't respond to any controls.

2. Check for additional safety switches: Some tram models have multiple switches that must all be engaged before operation.

3. Confirm overhead power (if applicable): If your tram uses overhead wires, ensure the wire infrastructure is properly installed above the track.

Track and Positioning Issues

  • Tram won't move: Verify the track is properly connected and aligned. Gaps or misaligned segments prevent movement.
  • Tram derails on curves: Check that curves are gradual and track segments connect smoothly.
  • Stuck on inclines: Soviet trams have limited climbing ability—avoid steep grades.

Control Key Problems

  • Confirm your throttle and brake keys are correctly bound in your controls settings
  • Test keys outside the cabin to ensure they're not conflicting with other mods
  • Try re-entering the cabin if controls become unresponsive

Last Resort

If the tram remains unresponsive, exit the cabin and check for block obstructions on the track ahead.
