It start off with the loco shunting around Hung Hom unable to clear it's shunt signal into Int. Platform, my friend attemped to call for a SPAD but then the loco failed to couple with train.
As advised from manual he make use of the white triangular to set a call-on route in Hung Hom which worked---but now the Track Circuit refused to release and that affected multiple area apparantly.
Even more confusing, the signal was clear of green DESPITE the Track Circuit not clearing.

Quoting from another friend, Nozomi329, who seems encountering the same issue
Quote:
I was also able to reproduce this bug from the 0730 snapshot. PZ03 will not recognize the shunting signal at Hung hom north junction, and using the white triangle to set route will cause many other track circuits to go red

Did you or your friend get any kind of error message before the issue occured?

I can ask my friend to recall his memory and perhaps an earlier save.

2801 posts 		For various reasons I'm not using an identical loader.

I ran the loco on to the traverser, across to track 7, then up to signal 1171. Open international gate 1 and set the route to 1102 using the white arrow. A short while later I got an access violation report. Once I'd cleared that the loco moves normally and I don't get track circuits failing all over the place. But, there again, whatever triggers the access violation in my loader may be causing them in yours.

Hmm, spoke too soon. It's as if trains are leaving a red path behind them and tracks aren't clearing as a train passes.

Okay, that access violation clearly needs looking into.
