No Smoking!

[Vince]

Running OR X2999 . . .

Using the LIRR Camelback Loco. LIRRCamelBack.engLIRR_Camelback.jpg

MSTS January 2005. Long Island Rail Road class D-53 Camelback 4-4-0, #58.Original model by Ron Pertuit. Renumbered and restencilled to LIRR livery including a repainted cab interior by Ken Rodgers.

Running a test activity with player and all AI traffic using the same consist. (keeping it simple)

There is NO smoke/steam emitted from any of the AI traffic trains. Hoping someone on the OR team can have a look at this as I can't start threads at the Elvas Tower forums.

I have just run the first 5 minutes of a steam activity using X2599 ( not 2999, we are not there yet ) and have seen three steam AI, two were running and had smoke/steam showing. One was waiting departure and had none showing.

Vince, check the smoke settings in the .ENG file....

Anyone should be able to start a thread in "Maybe it's a bug"

This begs the question; The player engine smokes/steams just fine so why no smoke from the same-as-player AI engines?
As I said, AI & player same engines.
The consists are also the same, one engine pulling two LIRR ping-pongs.

recap: All consists are the same. Player smokes okay. All AI's no smoke.

I'll look into the maybe it's a bug. Thanks.

Edit add new info:
--The AI traffic trains all use the same path.
--The AI trains start every 6 minutes, same start point

***And now the kicker: The FIRST AI train makes good smoke/steam BUT every AI that follows ... NO smoke! Yikes.

Eric... thanks! I posted on the Bug forum over at ET.

can the camel back be converted to railworks?

Ron Pertuit is the maker of the original model. Only he can give an answer to that.
