Has anyone else noticed that after you exit from "North Wales Coast", it is left running in the background?

Or is it just on my PC?

What do you mean by 'In the Background'? Is there still a window on the screen, or is the icon still on the taskbar? To eliminate the obvious, have you definitely closed the window with the clock in and not the window with the panel/messages?

There was an issue with the .exe continuing to be reported as consuming memory in the task manager after the Sim had been closed. Reported fixed in V2.234 might be related to that.

Happens to me for about 5 minutes after seemingly closing the sim, but then I get a "Has encountered a problem and needs to close" message.

As Peter mentioned it was an issue relating to the particular version of core code which I released both North Wales Coast and Llangollen on. When they are re-released the issue will be fixed.

If I gave you any estimate it's only likely to end in a lot of disappointment for people.

However here is a preview of how the sim now looks. Warning - Large file!

Nice! What do the purple Ks mean at Llandudno Junction?

They are a note to myself and my testing team. They basically means the signals have been modified in some way and need some testing doing.

This was reported earlier in the thread...

Its a known issue with the core code the sim was released using. It will be fixed when the sims are re-released. No date has been given for that as of yet.
