Testing v8.005

Double click should already work.

Here's a different twist.... clickable headers and including the last modified date:

Testing version 8.005m is now available in the first post of the thread.

As always, use with caution, and keep good backups of any routes you might be modifying.

Question for users -- do you like having the logs in the TSRE directory, or should they go into the Route directory if you've done an editing session?

[StormerDSR]

For me TSRE directory is enough.

I start the TSRE around 100 times a week. To get rid of the log files, it is easier to delete them in the TSRE folder instead of searching all routes.

I just had a huge panic attack. Terrain painting and auto-paint weren't working in v8.005.

I have major versions saved going to 8.001 in my TSRE folder so I can do version comparisons. It wasn't working in any of them....

Tried 7.012 (sitting in a separate backup folder), and it was working.

Had I done any terrain painting in the last year? Can't recall, but this was going to be bad. Really bad.

So I did a line by line code comparison on GitHub between Goku's version and mine, and after a LOT of scrolling, found absolutely nothing that made any sense.

Then I compared the settings files between my 8.x folder and 7.012 folder.....

Seasonal Editing was on.

Turned it off, and painting came back to life.

Panic attack over........

Panic attack over........

The life of a developer. Panic attack, stroke, heart attack, all because of a forgotten bracket ..... 😃

Indeed. I'm adding an alert if seasonal editing is turned on. It was also playing poorly with the Consist Editor and looking for seasonal textures for wagons.... which would be really cool if they actually existed.

I've found something that probably is unintended behaviour.

If you use the character "." in kml names the marker name displayed in TSRE gets cut off. The "." character and all following characters are not displayed.

Example kml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" xmlns:gx="http://www.google.com/kml/ext/2.2">
    <Document id="1">
        <Placemark id="903">
            <name>Km 159.4</name>
            <Point id="902">
                <coordinates>9.946533101189182,56.419981934952915,0.0</coordinates>
            </Point>
        </Placemark>
    </Document>
</kml>

I'll take a look at that. It's handled as a string, and shouldn't be truncating.

Eric, two questions/whatevers...

I can't get compass to show on screen no matter what the setting says "true or false"

and second question....when I move the mouse across the screen...the "picker" is offset from the mouse position except in lower left corner....Is that normal or what? (in image below, mouse pointer is where red squiggly lines are and the yellow "picker' pole is above and to the right)...also is there a way to change color of picker pole....sometimes it's hard to see the yellow.... tc-3.png

[eric]

If you go go the View menu, is there a Compass option?

[amtrak115]

Yes there is a compass option and whether it's checked or not no compass appears

[eric]

You might be missing the PNG used for the compass display. Not sure if that throws an error or not.
