    Signals for BVE

    Ive found a couple of good tutorials and various other lists and articles to help me learn to code for BVE.I'm also learning about railroad ops,and have learned some about signaling,UK & US.The tutorials are not complete and dont discuss signals and signaling for BVE.Is there any info I havent found that deals with this topic?

    Well to learn the basics on adding signals to BVE, grab my CSV command definition file from BVE Yahoo Groups or http://www.frostphotography.net/BVE/CSVcommands.rtf

    This has the syntax of the signal commands but is not a tutorial.

    Of course, as with all things BVE, you can find out a lot about them by playing with the commands.

    Hope this helps...

      Yes!
      Some where from the old Crotrainz Forum which I printed to hard copy Take to to retype or scan but you contact me more if you want it.
      But, the best was recommended by someone But I don't know who he was to go to JRTR Net at:



      And Download:
      8. Signalling Systems for Safe Railway Transport
      you may want to downlaod and read:
      2. The Mechanism of Railway Tracks
      which explains why BVE tracks are 25 meters long and Turnouts (Switchs) work and why Mackoys Calls the command Turn and why the numbers for it are so.

      Once you read both The rest of the commands in BVE make sense Esp. How the Patturn command really works and the TR and last numbers in the Signal command.

        Thanks guys:-)Ive printed out what you both suggested.Im amassing quite a volume of info, but I realize in order to produce authentic work I have as much or more to learn about railways as the coding.Its great fun!
