Even using Pete Willard's very helpful TSRE tutorial I still cannot figure out how to "link selected siding" when trying to create a drop off cars event in TSRE Activity mode. Am I supposed to use the select tool and if so, what am I supposed to click on and to select the siding? Clicking around highlights all manner of things I don't want to mess with.
I get it, route building is important so the sim doesn't die out but I do wish there was more interest in creating a fully functioning and well documented activity editor. Maybe people don't create activities anymore and just run a consist to pose for screenshots, but I'd like to actually create and run complex activities without having to constantly ask simple questions like an idiot.
There is one person working on an activity editor and it does show up in updates to OR, though not yet functioning. I hope he's able to see it through because while TSRE 5 is a good stop gap, it is route builder/editor first and an activity builder/editor when it can be.
Sorry for the rant, but I've been working on this activity with in TSRE for two days now and it's just a roller coaster of triumphs and frustrations.
