Blue poles/points connection

[vline45]

I was running this test loco along a test track I'm building and it came to an immediate stop where pictured in the sim...

And this is the junction in TSRE...

The blue poles are still there and I've tried tearing it up and rejoining, is there anyway to fix this? Thanks.

that means the two track nodes are not connected. the blue number is the end of the track piece identifier. you are probably using pieces that are just a hair too long and they are overlapping instead of connecting. when you lay track that connects the blue number disappears and the yellow database line is connected like the two tracks on either side of the offending frog in the pic

Just to add to what Darkhorse posted:

Lft and Rgt versions of Frog track pieces have slightly different lengths on the main path and diverging paths. So if you use an Lft instead of Rgt and vice-versa they might slightly overlap or not reach the track they are supposed to be connected to. Try changing up which of the Frogs you are using and see what happens.

If that does not work you can try using dyntrack to get the exact right lengths.

Ok, so I did some switching and alternating and I think I've ironed out a few, thanks. Though I did run the loco over these point in the video and the bogies go crazy in movement and then it black screens until I quit Open Rails as seen in the video. I suspect I could have misplace the bogie origin and it's bugging out.

Just did a longer run and this bogies issue happens on another set of point as well, so need to work out if this is a bogie origin problem or track problem.

Scratch that, I slightly adjusted the bogie pivots and I think that problem has disappeared, hopefully.
