Yu can also use Special Timing Patterns (STPs) - useful if a headcode is _X__ (because ARS won't route it). SimSig Boss Log in to reply |

Forthose of you at the meet reporting an issue with regards to 6E42 entering twice. That issue has now been fixed. The rules has been corrected so that shouldn't now happen when the West Yorkshire sim has been released.

Interestingly enough this does seem to actually work, despite the warning message you get about ARS not knowing about last-minute changes if you edit the timetable via F2 - you do need to make the train ARS again (even if it's currently already in ARS) do copy the timetable edits into the ARS timetable, though.

Sorry to miss the meet at Birmingham this year but I was in North Devon. Glad everyone had a good time and I will look forward to the release of Sandhills, Sheffield and West Yorkshire. The sims for Sheffield and West Yorkshire look fab: well done to those who have put the work into creating them. Hope to see some of you at Derby in July.

While the Sheffield re-release is of course appreciated, it's a bit of a shame about the 80s mode, though...

looking at the Sheffield map I noticed the crossover from up to down at Dore has a different icon, looking at all the others I could see nothing the same, not being a programmer I wondered if it was worth drawing attention too. So looking forward to getting into the new ones, Superb Work as always, Thanks.

The symbol is an end of overlap marker; some simulations show them on angled track others don't

Thought I said that after the London meet (which I was at) but the new sims all look fab and I look forward to the release of Sandhills too. :) Dave Log in to reply |
