    orts-tsre-jumper

    The remote link allows you to put a free copy into your basket but then does not show any way to download the item. Eric, if you wrote it, can we just have it in the trainsim library? Seems like a rather useful item, I used the old Jumper a lot when using MSTS/RE.

    I'll take a look to see what's going on with free checkout.

    In the meantime, it's in the library for paid members... that's a feature I was planning to roll out eventually, and this will be the test.

      Thanks Eric. I'm a paid member and it downloaded in a second or two.

        Thanks for both. Depending on the version of tsre, you may need to modify a line through the UI so it can find the navigation pane. That should be covered in the instructions, but it's been a while since I've looked at them.

          Okay. I find myself getting more comfortable with TSRE although at the moment I've probably got a dozen or so orphan track pieces way down under. The adjusting things under the terrain could have been done better and it would have helped to have a larger number of items remain in the active window but otherwise the editor works well for me.

            Eric,

            I'm trying to install the jumper onto my machine and I keep getting an compression error. do I need somthing other than 7zip to unzip it?

              It should be regular Windows compression, not 7Zip.

              I'll look at it in a bit -- the file size is off. Away from my PC for a few hours.

                Jerry,
                You can add this line to the settings.txt file for TSRE, numRecentItems = 30
                You can adjust the number.
                Under the tools tab there is an option for Errors and Messages. This should show wayward track pieces and allow you to jump to them.
                From there you can delete them.

                Randy

                  One thing I found is that making that numRecentItems value too big pushed the bottom editor and out of the window, so be careful depending on your screen resolution.

                    Give it another go. The file uploaded was wrong.

                      Okay, I have a 110 mile trek to St. Louis to pick up the wife at the airport, but when I get back I will give it a shot.

                        Since we are on the subject of adjustments to TSRE one of my personal vendetta's is that when I go into it, the grade parameter is not set to % of grade and idiot me often does not see this and wonders why my values do not produce much change. Then it is back and do over time-----. Is there a parameter to set that will cause TSRE to default to % of grade, or for the benefit of other, any of the various grade values that can be used?

                        What I noticed is that when I increased the "recent items" to 20, the size of the item search panel reduced to compensate, so I'll probably adjust that size some to get a good fit.

                          There are a bunch of settings I wish would persist...

                            I tried it last night. And it downloaded just fine.
