Suggestion

I have recently started using OR and I am finding it very enjoyable.

A feature that I think would be a good enhancement would be the ability to change some things in an activity as the activity is started.

1. The ability to change the consist.
2. The ability to change the start time
3. The ability to change the season and weather.

I know that the time and weather can be changed during the activity but changing the season and consist requires going back to the Activity Editor. The ability to make these selections would be very convenient.

Thanks for the efforts on this project.

I think what we may do is something like a "copy to explore mode", which gives you the Explore Route dialog/options but all pre-set based on the activity. Changing the consist while still running the activity is a bad idea IMHO, except possibly as an emergency option for if you don't have the right consist installed.

Actually, what I was thinking was more along the lines of changing the parameters before the activity starts. Those options could be in the start activity dialog. I can understand problems with changing the consist after an activity starts. I just think it would be a nice convenience.

Thanks

If loose consists and AI traffic would be part of this, I like the sound of it. Right now I have six copies of the same basic activity but with different start points or consists... I'd like to have a basic static environment and then jump in wherever and however I choose.
