Excited for a DIY build tutorial with the Arduino code if you're up for sharing! Looks really clean If theoretically we added some logic around key insertion in the game, could you use capacitive touch to detect when the key is entered in your panel? 👀
@@LastLevelStudios Hiya, I don't think there is a way I could do that with the things that I have. I didn't make the keyswitch myself, I simply bought it online. The keyswitch has 3 positions, Off, Local close and Local open (all unlabeled but I know which is which) similar to the class 331/195. As far as I am aware, having the key inserted but in the off position doesn't enable anything on those trains, similar to my design. Having it in Local Close will activate the panel for controls, also similar to mine. I can detect this local close state, so if that sounds like something that would work for you, feel free to shoot me a dm on discord (@theblockybanana) other than that, Not much I can do im afraid!
@@SlavaArduino123 Thank you so much! It was actually really fun to make. I'd had the idea for ages before that and so I decided "sack it" and I'm really glad I did!
Hiya, I'm guarding a class 331 in the video, the build is practically identical to the 195. The panel I made is based off the class 331/195's guard panel, so that's what I guarded!
How much did this cost to make I would love to make one! Will it ever go on sale if it will I will definitely buy this! I work for a miniature railway and I usually am the guard. You better make a tutorial or I gonna be angy!!!!!!!! I'm ur 100th sub.
Runs off an Arduino Leonardo which is inside the box. Programmed the Arduino in the Arduino IDE and no other software runs when I'm using the panel. The box is really quite plug and go, it's just a weird looking keyboard
I don't have any guardable routes, so at the moment, no. I test it when I get WCML south, or even the GWE update when it gets released (I have old GWE) but considering it doesn't have guarding keybinds, I don't think it'll work
I have reprogrammed it in the past to work for British Railway. However with BR you have to click the on-screen panel before you can use keybinds. Apart from that, yes it does work, with some changed code because the keybinds are different.
Arduino microcontroller inside the box reads what buttons I have pressed, what position the key is in etc. and decides which keybind to spit out. It's effectively a fancy keyboard, all it does is send key presses to my computer which Roblox detects. Extra programming includes things like not sending any keyboard inputs if the key is in the "Panel off" position.
@@ubahni 100% correct! The cable used for receiving keystrokes is also the cable used for sending code.

I also set it up for DJMN lines, with green being ato start.
This is awesome! Amazing job

@@LastLevelStudios omg its bantech
@@dawutheuwad OMG A UNDER 13 LOOOL
WOAH BANTECH!
Oh wow that's amazing!
The accuracy is spot on awesome job!
Thank you so much!
This is quite amazing, I think you did a great job making it! :D
Thank you very much, I really enjoyed making it!
bro took it to a whole other level
OMG I literally came with that idea earlier, looks like its time to make something physical for scr :)
Btw instant sub for u
Of course, forgot to say, you are really talented person, and i think, even better than me :)
@@SlavaArduino123 Thank you so much! It was actually really fun to make. I'd had the idea for ages before that and so I decided "sack it" and I'm really glad I did!
This is awesome I need something like this myself now lolz (I removed the correction as I relised you were on a 195 or 171)

@@theblockybanana5537 it sounded like you said 321 so I got confused lolz
That's crazy cool! You should produce that, would defo buy!
too many manufacturing complications, the keyswitch has failed me once (cheap chinese part) but luckily because I can open up the box I could fix it
That's impressive!
Amazing work
Thank you!
That's pretty dope! Would love one for TSC
I need to know how did you do that
Bro is psycho fan of SCR, but im.... too. I LOVE IT! i wanna make that for a train
omg amazing! Also, i hope u are in private server, because you were moving during animations, (jk) will you give the tutorial maybe?
There will be no tutorial on this unfortunately. I may sell them at some point in the future however.
@@theblockybanana5537, I’d definitely buy one (of course depending on the price) but it seems so cool, well done for building this - very impressive!
@@ArthurTK26 he prob. made it with adurino (or smth like that)
@@theblockybanana5537 ok. I understand, and nice if you want to sell them (in feature)

Also how did you code this?
amazing
Very cool, what computer do you play on?
Amazing Buddy!
Thank you very much!
Amazing! How did you make the programming and stuff to make it able to work for gaming?
Arduino inside the box sends keyboard inputs to the computer
How did u do this
Defo need to buy this!
They're not for sale! I made it myself and I won't be selling them.
Show us how its made!
hey! real cool. what arduino did you use?
Hi! I used a leonardo.
how did you get those buttons and can I 3d print them?
wow, what software did you use to get it to work?
Runs off an Arduino Leonardo which is inside the box. Programmed the Arduino in the Arduino IDE and no other software runs when I'm using the panel. The box is really quite plug and go, it's just a weird looking keyboard
How did you made that and did you use some type of special board?
I whant to make one so bad but don't know how
This is sick
how u got it
I made it myself
very nice was it hard it looks super cool@@theblockybanana5537
now i want one :(
Wow, that’s great
lol awesome, i guard trains in real life, and this is spot on. also where do you get that from? i want to try it.
I made it myself! I'm not selling them though, if that was your next question lol
haha i commented before watching the vid, thinking u bought it lol.@@theblockybanana5537
@@theblockybanana5537Have you got a video on how you made it?
@@ethxn562 no, however I have given a brief explanation in this one. Who do you guard for?
@@theblockybanana5537 Ok, I used to guard for Auckland Transport last year around this time
hw did you make the gard panel
I bought the components, plugged them into a board, then programmed the board.
can u use it in train sim world 5

did you just use your keyboard to whistle?
Yes
would this work for British railway?

@theblockybanana5537 bruh
For scr..?
How to add a group?
What sorry?
I need one of them now 😂😂😂
How much would I be if it was on sale
At least £60

and btw what kind of buttons are those
Where did you get it from
I made it lol
@theblockybanana5537 wow how long did it take you
@@trains774 parts took ages, but from beginning the first prototype, to finishing the build, maybe just over a week?
My honest reation after this vid 💀💀💀
Can I ask why?
@@theblockybanana5537 how,my brain nearly exploded lol
Bros next video in this should definitely not be a physical train for driver role in scr
:3
watch out mate, i will get a real panel and convert the insides!
This is hilarious but sick Can you sell it to me XD
I'm not selling them unfortunatly.
@@theblockybanana5537 XD it was a joke Looks lovely though Very good work
Hiw die you Connect thath
USB connects to my laptop
All this for SCR 💀
Just like what people do with flight simulators, I suppose!
still neat + he can repurpose it for actually decent games

I thought it was a real traub
A what sorry?
Play train sim world 4 guarding instead... Much better
Guarding doesn't work in TSW4. You can only officially guard a train in one scenario. Outside of a scenario, it doesn't work.
@@theblockybanana5537on certain trains you can, or if you set up a train correctly you can guard without a scenario
@@PoggoDev which ones?
