Ok, I have discovered a problem in my route. When I come to put the platform between 2 tracks at Ramsbury, it causes both track viewer and BVE to cause an error and close. It works earlier in the route. HELP!!! The tracks are 10m apart, and if I use .form 14;0;0;0 then I get a platform but no edge on track 0. However, if replaced with .form 0;14;0;0 then the above error occurs... anyone able to shed light on the matter???Cheers

RE: Interesting Problem

So what's the error?
And make sure you've specified
Structure.FormR(0)
Structure.FormL(0)
Structure.FormCR(0)
Structure.FormCL(0)

Eh, where did my signature go?
Where has my favourite LUL train gone? Maybe it was sent for bolt checking again...

RE: Interesting Problem

What error message do you get? What does it say. I think I know what your problem is. I may have had the same as you have right now. Can you be more specific about the situation? Is it just a standard platform or one that has a gradient? etc etc Hope I can help.

RE: Interesting Problem

Hmm, I can understand you're confused. You can try this: replace the original platform object with another one. The Uchibo standard platform for example. Just use the same command .form 14;0;0;0 as you described before. If this works fine, then you should take a careful look at the code of your object. Hope this works out fine... Good luck!
