Template:Rank (Improved Again)


A Dispatcher, more commonly referred to as a [DS], is a member role in SCR. Dispatchers play a crucial role in the smooth operation of SCR, as they ensure traffic is consistently flowing as much as possible and all station departures are safe. They can easily be identified by their high-visibility jacket, baton and whistle.

Schedules for training sessions can be found below:

As of July 17, 2020, 8:34pm BST there are 5,337 Dispatchers.

Dispatching procedure

Dispatcher/Procedure


History

There was once CD/RA indicators at Bodin, however very few people ever got the chance to use them.

The dispatch process used to be manual and people would constantly ignore dispatchers which prompted the addition of the GUI system which we have in-game today.

As of the V1.1 update, Dispatchers now receive 5 points per dispatched train as opposed to the previous 1 point, due to the complaints of some Dispatchers.

Platform Assignments

Dispatcher/Platform assignments


Avoiding demotion

  • You cannot climb into gantries, jump over tracks to switch from one platform to another, or train surf.
  • Do not dispatch on a red signal.
  • You must dispatch between the rear and middle of the car, while positioning yourself to an area where you can clearly see the OFF indicator or signal, unless a Guard is on board.
    • If you're dispatching a 4-car, you must position yourself at the last 2 cars of the train.
    • If you're dispatching a 5-car, you must position yourself between the middle of the 3rd car to the last car of the train.
    • If the train has overshot, you are still required to stand between the rear or the middle of the train regardless.
  • Track walking and trespassing to other parts of the station is prohibited.
  • Do not stand on roofs of stations.
  • Do not wander away from your assigned platforms.
  • Do not dispatch trains from a different platform.
  • Do not board or ride any trains while being in the dispatcher role, unless you were accidentally glitched into the train you were supposed to be dispatching, then you can respawn again.
  • Face the direction of where the train is going when dispatching without Guard, or face to the Guard if there is one.
  • You cannot do any "/e" emotes while dispatching.
  • If someone is intimidating you, Reply in a respectful manner.
  • Respect people no matter what rank they are.
  • Do not go AFK on duty.
  • All rules that Qualified Drivers must follow still applies to you. You may get demoted to Trainee Driver if you break any QD-related rules.

Trivia

  • The ability to choose your platforms when dispatching is coming soon, as seen in the roadmap of the game.
  • Some new players may mistake the baton for a magnifying glass.
  • You can try out this role in Private Servers, same as a Signaller and a Guard.
  • The amount of Dispatchers has experienced a dramatic decrease due to the Guard update.
  • In DS training you used to have to spawn at Stepford United Football Club before the training began, but in V1.5 it changed to Faymere.
