        You know what would be nice?

        An optional "status" panel that keeps track of modes and settings when we constantly wonder, "Did I press that or not?".
        My brain says... something like what they needed for Apollo missions...

              Let me know if it's missing any of the tools/self-destruct functions.

                New error check -- looking for possible single track pieces that are in the TDB but possibly not actually connected to anything else. I've seen a few false positives on this, but mostly accurate. Now if only I can find the strays -not- in the TDB...

                  Slight tweaks to the signal linking functionality

                  On route load, if a signal is fully linked, it will show a green pointer. If unlinked, it will show the red pointer.

                  capture_5100293.jpg

                  After clicking on the link button for a specific head, the Link Signal button will be highlighted to draw attention that it needs to be clicked:

                  capture_5100294.jpg
                  Once linked, the link button will be ringed in green, instead of the previous green text that was a bit difficult to see:

                  capture_5100295.jpg
                  I haven't worked out redrawing the pointer yet, but I'll keep looking to see if there's a way to refresh the color.

                    I very much like your ideas re signal linking functionality as it has always been a bit tricky to get the links right. Having a color confirmation on the pointer would be extremely helpful as a clear indication that the links are set up correctly (or not).

                      The newest version with the signal linking and color coding is up. And I think I figured out how to make it green once the links are registered.

                          Eric, this latest version is a very helpful addition to TSRE. Just a couple of suggestions. At the moment the signal pointer shows red if either the signal does not need linking or if it does need linking put the links are not set or not correctly set. Can this be disambiguated? For example, the pointer for a signal not needing links could be orange, say. So the three cases (1) signal no link needed (2) signal link not yet or not correctly set (3) signal link correctly set will each have a different colored pointer - orange, red, green.

                          Also, although it is unlikely that anyone would mistake the green platform pointer for one of the new green linked signal pointers, for the sake of elegancy it would be good to have the platform markers a different color - maybe gray?

                          Martin

                            Good point about the platform markers -- I can find a different shade of green for the signals.

                            I'm already working to see if it's easy to compare the number of heads to the number linked. That should be what triggers green vs. red.

                                Notes on the function ..
                                Code:
                                Route Error Msg  11 :  "WARNING" : "TrackDB" : "TrackNode: 543. may be a single track piece. 546 544 "
                                Sometimes there is no error here. If a track is located between two junctions, this is also reported as an error.

                                The query should probably search more precisely for TrEndNode.
                                There are over 1000 single road sections in the current route. However, this is intentional. The same applies to some sections of track. Wouldn't an INFORMATION message be better than a WARNING? Just a thought!
