Question regarding the catenary options in the OR

[213 001-1]

Dear railway friends!

In the OR options menu you can switch the display of the catenary on or off and if you switch it on you can also choose between a single and double catenary.

If I switch the double catenary on in the OR, I have the following problem.

On routes that are only partially electrified, there are sometimes double catenaries on the non-electrified sections that are floating in the air, so to speak. I have included two pictures of a route below where you can see this clearly.

What could be the reason for the incorrect display? I noticed that these catenary parts that are floating in the air are always present where there is a signal. Otherwise the non-electrified sections of the route remain without "floating" catenaries.

ORTS cannot tell what track is electrified and what track is not. This is a line of discussion elsewhere.

Personally, I don't rely on ORTS to place/draw wires for me. I place my own wire pieces where they belong and it's visually better in my view.

Hello.

I'll tell you how I do it so that the cables are not visible on non-electrified roads.

If you look at the screenshot, once you select the section of road, on the left where it says Detail Level, in the second line you mark Custom and set value to 2

I hope it helps you.

Kind regards.
