Bug Description
Bug 1093831 reported that combined throttle / dynamic brake controls did not work and this has been fixed.
There are many modern multiple units both diesel and electric where the throttle is combined with the train brake and this combination does not work in OR but does in MSTS - as described in the eng file reference doc.
Sample EMU with combined throttle / train brake - uktrainsim.com file number 8754
Sample DMU with combined throttle / train brake - uktrainsim.com file number 9128
The eng file reference also allows combined throttle / train brake / dynamic brake with auto blending of the train and dynamic brakes. This seems to work also in an experiment that I've tried on a commercial EMU model - Making Tracks Siemens Desiro Stock Pack Class 444. This unit in reality has throttle air and dynamic brakes auto blended although the model does not set this up. Setting this up as per the eng file reference results in the train still braking apparently correctly and the load meter reading negative current, as it should.

I am not clear on your last paragraph. Are you saying that ' combined throttle / train brake / dynamic brake with auto blending' works on OR, or does not work on OR and works on MSTS or does not work on MSTS?
Thanks
