Description
This is my A-Level Computer Science project, which is due in Feb 2024. Any feedback on it before that date would be much appreciated.
This is a Major update to the program. It now uses Tkinter interfaces and databases to run announcements, instead of the command line.
Well, well, well. I have an update for you at last. Sorry for the delay since May! I have been extremly busy with school work in my final year of A-Levels. This is my computer science project for my component 3. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I have really enjoyed coding this version, so I hope you like it too!
This python program adds extra realism to your Train Sim games. You can now have station by station announcements, just like you hear on real trains, with the ability to create custom routes between stations to fit whatever route you choose to play in the game.
For further information, please read the 'README.txt' attached in the downloadable file.
ChangeLog
- Whole new program built from the ground up, using a tkinter interface, instead of command line
