Possible Bug - Coded Manual Operation not Saving 09/11/2013 at 12:33 #51145

Just been playing the excellent Victoria LUL Sim, but I think I've found a minor bug:

I receive a message stating that coded manual operation between Finsbury Park and Seven Sister NB is in operation.
The first train runs through at reduced speed.
I save and exit the game.
Upon restarting, the CMO is no longer in the incident log and trains run at normal speed.
After a while a message appears saying "06:06:44 Coded Manual operation at 0 now lifted"

what does Manual coded operation mean as I have an idea but not 100% concerned.

I've just had the message
"05:09:04 Coded Manual operation between Highbury & Islington and King’s Cross Southbound"

And yet the first train through the section, V212, has proceeded through at normal line speed (36mph), with "Default" in the driving rules column of the Train List

The only other messages I've had have been related to a door problem, coincidentally on V212, at Finsbury Park. There has been no message to say Coded Manual operation has ended.

I have not saved or reloaded.

This is also affecting train having technical difficulties. If I save and reload while a failure is in progress, from a practical point of view, everything is working fine, i.e. after the reloading, the failed train remains failed, then after a while you get the message that the problem has been cleared and the train does indeed move off, only the messages is referring to "Train 0", e.g. "Train 0 at Stockwell Platform 4 problem solved".

Seems to be a problem saving and possibly using Variables which I've reported as a CoreCode query. That might be linked to TSRs as well (which is what is used under the bonnet).

What is coded manual operation is it to do with the 180, 360,480 codes that the train picks up from the track is there any pics of the new control room around thanks.

If you follow Tim Tam Tow's suggestion of looking at the manual there is a link to a web site that explains it far better than I can.

(Copy of my post on this thread)

Found a sort-of work-around to kind-of keep this particular type of failure somewhat realistic.

Upon receiving notification of this via F7 - Incident Report, open up F11 - Incident Control Panel and use the TSRs (Temporary Speed Restrictions) tab to apply TSRs for all of the associated TCs.

:evil:

After you are informed Coded Manual Operation is now lifted, simply open up F11 - Incident Control Panel again and delete the TSRs.



For those wondering, my first 'run in' with CMO lasted for 1hr and 46mins, however didn't seem to cause too much of a delay (probably 1 minute at most).

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.
