Exeter Summer Saturday TT (1985) V3 - Trains entering from DVR 04/12/2018 at 21:08 #113822

I am having trouble getting trains to enter from the DVR at Paignton.

1Z33 has arrived and detached the loco which has duly trundled off to the Goodrington carriage sidings. The signaller has called from the DVR telling me that the joining locos (0Z98-1) are ready, I have worked the paington crossover lever frame, but 0Z98 refuses to appear. A few minutes later, I get another call from the DVR saying 0Z98 is ready but still no appearance which repeats every few minutes or so.


Can anybody advise what I am doing wrong and how I can get these locos to enter the sim....?

Thanks.

Update...….

I left the crossover open to the DVR for some time and eventually 0Z98 appeared and entered the SIM.

The problem I have now though is although it has successfully joined 1Z33 and departed back to the DVR, I am still getting phone calls telling me that 0Z98 is ready.

I can't seem to find anything in the forum or wiki and I'm not sure why all this is happening - 0Z98 is shown as having entered on the F4 TT editor so I can't even mark it as entered to stop it trying to enter - It is all very strange.

Is this a reported bug or is it something new.....?

Thanks.

Attaching a savegame of the current state and if possible prior states would be helpful.

I'll do some re-releases of a number of Sims shortly, just once I've got everything transferred to my new computer, which is taking more time to set up than it should and is more fraught than I expected.

Peter,

You will play with "fire", I hope you didn't get "burnt".

I'm confused, when you say re-releases of a number of sims can you be more specific to what you mean please?

Yes, Peter will be releasing updates to a number of already released simulations once his new computer is sorted.

Ahh and these sims could be any as it's just a case of wait and see or are we allowed to know before hand which sims will get the updates if that's possible?

Either way, updates are always good!

I have to work through the reports to see what's needed to be done but I know Exeter is one of them, hence the comment on this thread.
What I have realised is that I've been fixing things hither and thither but then forgetting to then release an new version, so I need collect my thoughts.
