I was hosting multiplay taking panel 5, another one taking panel 6. When 2E15 is waiting at signal 673, I suddenly receive a call from it, which it was ought to be transferred to panel 6.

Can you confirm that whoever was on Workstation/Panel 6 was in control of it via Workstation Control? If they weren't then all calls would have gone through to the host. I'll do some testing in the mean time... Any views and / or opinions expressed by myself are from me personally and do not represent those of any company I either work for or am a consultant for.

Only developers and testers can find them.

Also, if the forum is anything to go by whenever a new sim is released, a good few of those bugs will not be bugs at all.

Another wrong call: Quote: 2N13 delayed at Hove due to train requiring attention from a fitter, expected to depart at about 11:40. Do you wish to replace signal S677 back to danger? received by panel 5 (server) again. It's at Hove P3. Log in to reply |

and i was on panel 6 again, if that helps. In control of the workstation. Signal was Hove 667. Last edited: 06/06/2012 at 07:50 by guidomcc Reason: signal number Log in to reply |

Sig 669 also not redirected. And I don't think that is 667, should be 677. Log in to reply |

Thanks again for the latest reports on wrong calls. Further testing will be carried out and if reproducible (not that I doubt your reports) then will be filed on bug board.

OK, today the server isn't taking ANY of the panels, but now 2D18 is stuck at LW8 (because all trains in front can't move, well...) and the call isn't redirected to any of the panels, instead the server get the call. Is it intended? P.S. the savestate is available in the hosting section. Perhaps all the calls have to be reviewed and checked. Last edited: 07/06/2012 at 08:10 by alvinhochun Log in to reply |

I guess you could argue since LW8 isn't actually on any of the panels it goes to the host.. but surely it would be more logical for it to go to the panel 6 player? Furthermore, is it possible to have a failure on this signal?

"External" signals often go to the host.

As SLW8 is in the Signal List, one would assume that it is subject to failure unless it is programmed not to. Barry Barry, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Log in to reply |

I thought External signals did not call in at all I certainly remember raising the question a while back - I'd have to have a dig around and see what's what later. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |

LW8 is not even shown on the panel that I can see, so it would hopefully not fail! I also seem to recall something (possibly in the features wish list) that external signals not phoning in was discussed, but as far as I am aware nothing had been implemented on any released sim. Saltley (2.232 core code, and the latest released version) still has the odd train phoning in from Stourbridge signals when trains back up going in to Snow Hill. Log in to reply |

I did knock the lamp proving out in an attempt to locate the signal as well as the conventional right-click method which is what led me to conclude that it was not visible on the panel. After holding the signal at red and having a test train enter at Lewes East Coast then the train did stop at the signal and phone in. This is not a sim-specific bug, more a core code issue regarding external signals I believe. Log in to reply |

Would you expect that driver phoning in if chaining with Lewes? (I mean when Lewes is completed and released)
