    OR and dynamic track

    anytime there's a piece of dynamic track, OR brings my train to a stop-looking at the spot in TSRE, the yellow t-section lines don't proceed through it-anybody else have this happen,and if so,has a work-around been suggested?

    Try turning superelevation off, and then run through the area again to test.

      What is the route? And what does the route's tsection file say in it?

        The only thing in the tsection on the route (PO&N 11) is:

        TrackSections ( 2
        )
        SectionIdx ( 1
        )


        But I might have taken care of it anyway by following these hints (posted here in this forum):
        1. checking "disable TCS scripts",
        2. UNchecking "speed control",and
        3. changing "MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 1 )" to "MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 0 )" in the engine wag files

        So far, I haven't had any emergency brake applications (in explore mode, anyway) since making these changes

          It's funny--my train, while on the PO&N 11, will "jump" across any dynamic track (because the yellow tsection lines wont go across it)-for instance at the Columbia Falls wye--

          But at the same wye on the Marias Pass 5, my train doen't try to do the jump (because the tsection line DOES cross it)!

          I'm sure this has been talked about before, I'm currently going through all the old posts to try to see if I can do anything about fixing it...

            None of that will help. Your route's tsection file has been wiped clean. On some older routes, if you edit the route in TSRE, it will do that. About your only recourse is to get a new tsection from a backup, which I hope you have

              Yes,I had backed up the route before playing with the editor,so I copied the tsection.dat file over as you suggested,and that took care of it--thanks much,ebnertra000!
