6T82 Earles Sdgs - Peak Forest is offered early from Earles while the outward leg Peak Forest to Earles was still standing at Chinley East waiting a path. Should there be a rule to prevent this happening? Regards, Phil. Last edited: 16/01/2018 at 14:20 by Phil-jmw Reason: None given Log in to reply |

Thanks Kev. A similar thing happened with 7T81 being offered from Tunstead before 0T81 had come out of Peak Forest to work it. Regards, Phil. Log in to reply |

The revised wtt is fine, with 0T83 behaving as it should, etc. All well until 1311 (Mon) when the appropriate 6F42 fails to make an appearance. Still no joy at 1330, in easy mode. Log in to reply |

6F42 didn't enter for me neither, over 2 hrs after I sent the 0F42 in. Regards, Phil. Log in to reply |

John 23 in post 105349 said:Kev, herewith.Hmmmm. It says that 6F42 is "Waiting on rule", but the only rule is the one saying that it must wait until 15mins after 0F42 leaves the sim. I have no idea why this has happened. I've not come across it in the many many times that I have been through the timetable. Kev Log in to reply |

I've just had a quick look at the save. I suspect it's tied into the decisions as the decision for 0F42 has selected the 47/0 option but the decision for 6F42 has selected the 2x20 option, so the sim is looking for 6F42201311 to enter, but the rule says that has to wait for $0F42201206 to leave the area, this hasn't run as the decisions made 0F42471206 run. There shouldn't be a decisions tab for 6F42 as it's driven by 0F42 Noisynoel Log in to reply |

An updated timetable (v1.2.2) is on its way to be pushed out as an update. It fixes the problems identified above, as well as one or two minor adjustments. Kev Log in to reply The following users said thank you: Phil-jmw, John 23 |

This is my first time playing a BR-era timetable and I must say I am thoroughly, thoroughly impressed by this sim and its timetable. I'm only about an hour in and I can tell this one's gonna be good. I've never before, however, played a timetable with different workings on different days and so on and I'm honestly a bit confused about how this timetable actually works. Forgive me if the details are discussed at length in some part of the forum or the wiki, but I couldn't find details with a basic google search. So it appears that my game has started on a Monday, based on the trains that have and have not entered, but is there any way to determine this or set it. And then what happens when Monday finishes? I notice that the seed trains for other days, for example the other four incarnations of 0A00 aren't marked automatically as entered but remain to enter, as do all the alternatives for the other days. But, what happens at around 25:00 26:00 when presumably the last of the services that aren't specific to days other than Monday have all entered and a regular timetable would finish? Do I get only the Tuesday specific trains without all of the trains that already entered? Or does the timetable sort of automatically restart? Or do I have to start fresh, in which case, will it know that I'm on Tuesday, or can I set it, or is random? Log in to reply |

The TT developer has created a timetable Decision (F4-> Decisions tab) that chooses the day at the start of the week; a loco is seeded on Peak Forest fuel point to determine which day is chosen. There are five identical schedules for this loco, each of which represents a different day. In this case, the TT developer has not programmed in an announcement; in other timetables you'll be given a message in the incident report stating the day, or for other decisions. There is no way to select the day of the week on start-up; you'll either have to edit the TT to remove the choices for the days you don't want, save and re-load, or just keep loading the timetable until you get the required day. There is no 'wrap around' for the following day; you can only play one day per game.

TUT in post 112095 said:The lack of a wrap around is definitely good news for me on this occasion, I still have Carlisle and the brand new Catchcart on my "to-do list"!The Carlisle 1979-1980 TT was originally written with 5 similar seed locos to the Peak District TT. Once the decisions module became available, the imaginary seed locos were taken out and the day of operation decided by use of a Day of the Week decision. The TTs published with the sim include the over-arching 5-day TT (similar to Peak District with a day selected at random and no roll-over to the next day) and then a suite of 5 variants of the TT where the DotW decision has been programmed to pick each of the 5 days. The underlying TT is the same (so the Monday variant includes all the MX trains etc) but only the trains TT'd to run on Monday will appear. You could similarly set up a suite of 5 variants for Peak District by removing the rules and seed locos for the days you didn't want to see if you so desired. “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Log in to reply The following user said thank you: TUT |

I've been playing this TT recently, and I'm up to 09:15. I had issues with the Buxton RR ground frame - I was putting the handsignal back on the driver, so they called in three times while I tried to work out the procedure! I think giving me a 20700 point penalty might a bit harsh though. :-) Analysis of your performance and score Trains passing timing points: 706 total timing points On time: 566 (80%) 2 mins late: 100 (14%) 5 mins late: 23 (3%) Over 5 mins late: 17 (2%) Minutes lost/gained overall: Total minutes lost by you: 31 Total minutes recovered by you: 36 Trains using the correct platforms: 16 occasions Correct: 16 (100%) Opposite: 0 (0%) Incorrect: 0 (0%) Miscellaneous: Total routes cancelled with trains approaching: 5 Total wrong routes set for trains: 0 Total joining moves abandoned: 0 Total trains removed: 0 Total trains shortened: 0 Other points lost: 20700 TOTAL SCORE -228 IS NEGATIVE!

Here's another interesting thing the TT has thrown up: 0E184512002ND enters at 13.25 from the Sorting Sidings and runs to the Long Sidings, where it waits for 8E18SHNT to come and join it (arrives 13.40). But 8E18SHNT has a rule which states it can only enter five minutes after 0E18 has left the area. But 0E18 is waiting for 8E18, so an infinite loop of waiting has been created. Is this right? As it stands, with 0E18 waiting in the Long Sidings, 8E18SHNT is never going to enter the sim. Log in to reply |
