The Railway Operating Centre (ROC) is a fun thing.
During our [[SimSig/Sessions|SimSig Sessions]] voice communication will be provided by the '''Railway Operating Centre''', or '''ROC'''. The ROC allows easy communication between [[SimSig/Signaller|Signallers]] and [[SimSig/Controller|Controllers]], breaking down each signalling area into their own channel. The ROC also allows private calls to be made between two users as required.


The ROC is a web app that will switch users between different [[Discord]] channels depending on a number of factors. To use the ROC, and therefore to be able to fully communicate with all participants during a Session, a user must join the [[On Our Lines]] Discord server, and request the [[Discord#Roles|SimSig role]]. Once this is done, users can login to the ROC with their Discord ID, unlocking its functionality.

==Known Bugs==
There are currently a number of known bugs present on the ROC; it is beta software and its development is ongoing.
*Users do not disappear from software on leave. Please move to channel 3 ({{discord|on-our-simsig-3}}) in the software for now.
*Safari: Audio for calls DOES NOT PLAY!!! If you want your phone to ring with sound, use Edge, Chrome or Firefox (known good browsers)
*Sleep/Screen locks: Ensure you leave the tab/window/tablet open without screen lock/auto sleep enabled. It will kick you if your device locks and you will have to rejoin from the lobby. This is a websockets thing. Basically don't let it unload.
*The design is at a very basic level


''Known bugs will soon be migrated to an issue tracker; in the meantime, please do add any discovered and confirmed bugs to this page, signing them with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).''

During our SimSig Sessions voice communication will be provided by the Railway Operating Centre, or ROC. The ROC allows easy communication between Signallers and Controllers, breaking down each signalling area into their own channel. The ROC also allows private calls to be made between two users as required.

The ROC is a web app that will switch users between different Discord channels depending on a number of factors. To use the ROC, and therefore to be able to fully communicate with all participants during a Session, a user must join the On Our Lines Discord server, and request the SimSig role. Once this is done, users can login to the ROC with their Discord ID, unlocking its functionality.
