Activity Shown Complete Prematurely

[NorthernWarrior]

Previously discussed issues with North Wales Coast 2 activities at TSSH, notably OR not correctly setting the route during a complex series of reversals. This possibly fixed in the latest edition but not had a chance to test the Conwy Crompton activity, which was the one causing issues.

However in the meantime I've had issues with Amlwch Angler which is a Railtour (fan trip to our transatlantic cousins). The last passenger stop is at Bangor but the train then continues to the end of a freight only branch line. OR is not showing a departure time against Bangor and continues to display the depart when ready message. When I call up the Evaluation in F1, it is shown as Activity Complete, even though there is still driving instructions to complete.

That then leads me back to Para.1 and wondering if a similar issue is what caused/causes conflict with the instructions following the last station stop during Conwy Crompton. On Amlwch Angler, the reversals at Gaerwen Junction worked correctly, but there is no uncoupling and run round the train required which is the case on Conwy Crompton at Llandudno Jn.

For a passenger activity, OR needs to look beyond the last station call for any further instructions, which may vary from a simple EMCAR movement to the sidings or, in the case of a Railtour, further complex operations and instructions.

If OR displays the Activity Complete pop up window when the last station stop is terminated, that means that the "Default Event - Stop at Final Station" is set. Is this your case? To continue the activity after such stop, the default event must be deleted.

No, only in the F1 window. I'll confirm what happens where the activity should end, hopefully later today.

Update: Amwlch Angler did complete with the correct Activity End box at the terminal location. On resuming the saved game the "Depart When Read" message had disappeared from F10 but still no departure time recorded from Bangor.

Conwy Crompton however, not such good news. On completing the run round and coupling back up to the stock, the signal at the west end of the platform fails to clear and the train itself is shown as a red obstruction icon. The only other reason I can think why this activity doesn't work in OR is that the final reverse move is unsignalled. You just stop on the Down Birkenhead line and set back on the train, but then OR changes the points for that movement so not sure why the game is stuck on the next part?
