I now have a recent alpha of the abuilding Ft. Smith Sub in my possession! Yippeee!Intentionally, this one comes with no preloaded activities requiring equipment I don't have etc. Thus, the Activites, Paths, and Services folders are empty.Now, here's my question:* Does anybody know how to create "Start At/Heading Toward" points to be found within the Explore menu? My HOPE is to have "Start At" drop in points for most major towns, with "Heading Toward" being either North, or South. Doing this will let me drop trains where they're needed in the direction desired for a look see after editing some item on the route or whatever.I have one set of instructions I've d/l'd from the forums about doing this in the "Path" files, but seeing as there are no Paths for this route, how do I create what I need?If you know how to do this, if you'll take the time to give those of us out here in Editing Land some insight, I assure you I will print yuor words of wisdom out and place in my Mighty MSTS Notebook, thus won't need to ask again!Input?Andre "Coonskin" Ming

Go into the activity editor and create some paths. Thats all you need to do. Start a new activity, create a new service, then create a new path. When you're done cancel to exit.
