Still playing the 15-10-09 04:45 tt in the Central Scotland simulation and 4J03 has just taken a wrong route without querying it. Surely it should have done?
I'm going to have to reverse it.

Sorry if this has been reported before.

If you could provide the signal number, the route the train was supposed to take and the route you actually set for it, I can take a look and log it if need be.

Signal number GJ432 at Greenhill Lower Junction. The train was meant to travel towards Cumbernauld but I inadvertently ruted it towards Croy via Greenhill Upper Junction.
Do you need a saved game or will this information suffice?

Ta, that's all I need.

Assuming the train is going to Gartsherrie Jn, then going by the manual, that's intended behaviour: the train can still reach its destination by taking in the sights of Croy, Cowlairs, Springburn and Gartcosh.

Ah, so that's why there was no complaint about a wrong route. Must add quite some time to the journey though.

Thanks

As I said in another thread I've put all sorts of code in to jump the timetable if an alternative route is taken. If that's not happened in this case then I can look into that.

Do you need a save just as it happened (wrong route already set)? Or would an earlier one be better?

Neither all I need is the signal number (which you gave), but I think we've established that this is a valid alternative route. If the TT did not step up you just need to tell me.
Having said that, it's such a convoluted route that stepping up might be better done manually.

I think that it did, but I'll run it again to check and let you know. But I'm afraid that you'll have to wait until next year :D

Happy New Year.

Well, it looks like I was wrong. The timetable didn't step up. I let 4J03 run a bit further, probably a bit too far really and the timetable didn't change.
