A bit of a strange problem while setting up meets on a new route. Yesterday I set up what should have been a simple meet, the Player starts the activity sitting in a siding and a few minutes later a passenger train comes though, then the Player is free to occupy the mainline. Well it didn't work, after two tries I wondered why the AI train wasn't spawning and went into Mainual Mode threw the switch in front of me and suddenly the AI train spawned.
This morning I set up another meet. The Player is sitting in the west side of the yard, waits for AI traffic to come off a branchline and into the east side of the yard. Once that AI traffic clears, the Player is to head north, then crossover and enter the branch. Again no joy. I ended up having to take the player train, occupy the south switch of the crossover, go into Manual and throw the north switch of the crossover for the AI train which suddenly spawned, then back up into the yard... not very prototypical.
Is there something new I'm doing wrong? I can't remember having trouble doing this on the DAR roue.
I'm using X1.3.1.263-g7abeb7d51 but have also changed that out for 1.3.1.4328 and got the same results. The only difference I can see is that DAR has a few signals at the last few miles of the route on CN, and this route has no signals because this portion of the actual route had no signals.
