ACOA despite being warned - bug? 10/08/2014 at 00:55 #63720

Hiya, playing West Hampstead in CTC's MP session earlier, train 2T78 was delayed at Leagrave for a fairly lengthy amount of time, so I told him the signal would be replaced (as you can see in the attached screenshot). However I took about four sim minutes to actually get around to cancelling the route, and when I did, the train reported an ACOA..

Is the time to replace a signal limited, or is there a bug here?

Thanks in advance.

It's limited to 30-60 sim seconds IIRC. Wait too long and an ACOA will be recorded regardless.
Nil.

Reason: sim time, not real time.

60 (simulated) seconds always.

Thanks for raising the question Temple Meads, Another little trap not to fall into as I've done in the past.

I'm in the habit of cancelling a route at the time whenever offered, you never know what circumstances might change later and leaving you ruing the missed opportunity.
I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.

Yes, I normally put the signal back immediately after the phone call, my excuse here was that it didn't appear that it was required and the sim was running quite fast.

Lesson learnt though, for sure!
