Hi,

Sometimes in multi-player mode a signaller might ask a colleague to mind a panel for a short while. As the minder isn't in "control" of the panel, s/he can't see the trains in F2 view.

It might be useful to be able to switch on or off the ability to see all trains live the the signalling area with a tickbox?

Thanks!
Jamie

Might it be simpler to switch control of the panel to the minder for a few minutes? It's easy to do, and allows the minder to receive phone calls as well.

Can do, although the host has to wrench the panel back if the signaller on PNB has stayed connected...

Perhaps even better would be a an option to have a secondary panel controller (nominated by the host or by panel owner)?

The Host does not need to do anything.. You logging out of the panel allows your college to login. and vice versa.
