    What does this mean?

    Friends,

    I am creating a route with TSRE, really just adding about 60 miles to an existing route, not yet released. I use Track Viewer to check the integrity of the route and created a path that starts in Great Falls, MT quite a ways to the right of this image. The yellow line generated up to this trailing point turnout and then it turned to magenta. This continued to the current end of track. Is this indicating some error, or does it just show a change to a new segment?

    I think it just means it's closest to the cursor.
    Tap page up and see what happens.

        Do you have continuous yellow TDB lines in TSRE? Any blue poles?
        Page up should continue the path until the next node. If not then you are at the end of track.
        That's been my experience anyway.

          Yes, the yellow database lines are continuous. Now, that magenta segment continues to the end of the current track and that spot is not defined as being the end since
          the end is 45 miles or so further on. I was just checking what I had done so far. No blue poles.

            Try stopping the path short of that switch then see if you can drive thru it.
            I've never seen that color before and have no idea what it could mean.

              Use the Trackviewer to continue the path to its logical ends -- use Shift+PageUP. and then see how it works.

                No change and I also noted that if I select "draw to here", the yellow line to the right of the point changes to magenta. In edit mode, I have zoomed in close to show that there is a arrow in the middle of the circles. Again, when checked in TSRE, there is no break here. I had put some track pieces way under ground at some point but have successfully removed those.
