Hi!I'm working with the Route Editor to build a traction route. But I've a problem: I cannot delete two turnouts, because if I select them, the Route Editor crashes. How can i fix this? See the map: the two red arrows show the damaged turnouts: both are manuals.Greetings, Ivan

What map?! Have you tried deleting the track pieces either side first? Tried a track database rebuild?Geoff M.

Sorry, I'm not able to upload the map. However the two turnouts are in the following position: there is a y-turonut and a left turnout:

I deleted all the track pieces linked to the two turnouts, I rebuilt the track database several times, but the problem wasn't fixed.

Try removing them in the .w file and then rebuild the TDB.

What is the .w file? I'm not a pro with the route editor and I don't know the function of all the route files. However I fixed the problem adding a 10m straight section at the point of the y-turnout, I rebuilt the tdb, I deleted the 10m and the y-turnout, I rebuilt tdb again, then finally I deleted the other turnout.Ivan

Each tile of your route has a .w file in the world folder.
These files holds entries for every object you add to the route.
It is possible to do all sorts of things by editing these files if you have the currage and know how.
