Vehicle acceleration

For train traffic, I can't think of a good use (yet)
But for road traffic, it's a powerful new feature.

Activate that option, if you want a car to follow the car in front.

Say you stop a car at a traffic light: if the cars behind have the Minus option activeated (like on your screenshot), they will also stop and at a respectful distance. Now, when your traffic light changes and you set the car in front in motion, you may want the cars behind to follow. And that's what the Plus option is for.

It's a bit tricky to use, because you'll need to turn it off and on, depending on the current situation.
The first car at the traffic light must have it off, or else it will follow the cars crossing.#

This is a fine example from Brummi:

Hello,

This ref. 81A75E39-DCC6-4212-BB42-FDBEFDE15C36 leads to nothing her at home. Something special ?
If I search for it in the catalog, it jumps to the 3D Models, but the zone My 3D models is empty and I cannot use that zone it. ( or do not now how )

Probably a plugin is needed ? But for now, I'm not working with 3D models. ( ex. Blender ); only with the 3D Train studio.
I can read the Mini-Exp. from Brummi.

Greetings, Herman

it's not a model ID
It's the ID of a layout.

Hence, you need to search for it on the starting page
Please, click on "Online Catalog", then enter the id in the input field at the top right
