Automatically pin train window
Would other people find it useful if when a train is stopped and its window opened due to an unsafe reversal attempt in a PBS junction being pinned?

Re: Automatically pin train window
I'm afraid, I wouldn't find it useful, rather annoying.
Just think of a situation where you build somewhere and cause a jam while doing so, knowing that. And then the screen gets spammed by pointless messages. And that's only one obvious occasion where I wouldn't like it.
Actually I'm not even sure, maybe there's already such news category. If at all, that might be IMHO the way to rise the awareness of jammed trains and anyone can select whether to receive those news as pop-up, as ticker or not at all.

Re: Automatically pin train window
I mean the actual train window, not the news message. Sometimes I use delete to close all my windows and a stopped train window sneaks open before I notice and thus also gets closed. This is probably caused by my bad network designs though.

Yes I know. And mean that exactly that would be overly annoying If you want a train window sticky, then make it sticky. But auto-sticky?! No thank you!
