    Pantograph animation triggers - r1297

    There is some problem with the animation <P> and <Shift+P> keys trigger. I faced this problem when I tried to play with a tramway consist with 2 engines, with only 1 pantograph on each. This is a special consist, because it has to work in a way that only the pantograph of the front engine is raised, the rear one's is lowered.

    For this to work, the front engine's shape file (.s) has animation definition only for pantograph 1, while the rear engine has only pantograph 2 defined. So in MSTS when I hit <P> key, the front engines pantograph is getting raised/lowered. And when I hit <Shift+P> then the rear one's is getting raised/lowered.

    Unfortunately it doesn't work in OR. Here, when I hit <P>, both pantographs are getting raised/lowered, and when I hit <Shift+P>, nothing happens. It seems OR doesn't respect the pantograph number designation (1 for front, 2 for rear), when only one is defined in shape file.

    An other relating small bug: The text notifications also doesn't match, both the HUD and the event notifier on the black line.
    1) When I hit <Shift+P>, HUD displays "Pantographs 1st up 2nd up", no matter if the 1st is really up or not. And there is no black line notifier for this event.
    2) After this, when I hit <P>, event notifier says: "Pantograph 1: lower", while the animation raises up the patograph 1.

    (For testing purposes you may download such a tram with consists included from the following location: Budapest UV tram)
