new version possible bug. 09/01/2015 at 10:44 #67605

i have just updated the loader and all the sims dated 8th jan 2015.

whilst playing the weekday 2012 tt i came across an issue.

train 4M90 was at brixton on the catford loop line not the atlantic lines. whilst at brixton it was stopped at signal 112.

on finding this train i tried setting a route from signall 112 to signal 108 but it kept on coming up no overlap avalible.

then i saw that signal 118 was still keyed but at red as the train length was occuping both berths of signals 118 and 112.

on selecting cancel route from signal 118 i was able to set a route from signal 112 to 108.

if i have this wrong please ignore me but i thought i would mention it

thanks for the great sim.

It indeed sounds like this shouldn't happen, do you perhaps have a saved game from this moment?

Do you still know if the route from 118 to 112 was a warner route (no overlap visible at 112 according to signal number plan) or a normal route (white coloured overlap at signal 112 extends beyond the points)?
The warner route is set using the arrow next to signal 112, a normal route to 112 is set by clicking 112 itself (after clicking on 118).

I can confirm this is occurring as a result of ARS setting the route for 4M90 following close to 4B00. If you hold back 4M90, all works as tabled.

A similar instance occurred on the Up Holburn at S136. 2W82 passes S136 and continues to the Up Slow. The following train 1U99 arrives and ARS sets the route and overlap that 2W82 used on the Up Holburn to Blackfriers. 1U99 is tabled for the Up Chatham and S136 will not clear.

Saves attached.

I do not have Victoria SE so cannot check myself, but is it a case of needing to keep a closer eye on the ARS and regulate the trains yourself?

ARS is not perfect in reality and is known to make some poor choices, the SimSig version is the same.
