Feb-07-02, 11:06 PM (EST) "Please help with creating first route activity" Grrr...I'm trying to create a simple activity called "Test activity" to check the route I"m making. Here's the problem. I modify the route, re-make the activity, no problem, it works. I go in again, modify the route, update the activity (this time with a new loco, but one I"ve used fine before), go in...and here's where it gets bad (SOMETIMES).The "explore the route" activity (which I have never KNOWINGLY made) contains the engine and text for the activity I just created. However, if I click the "Test activity" I just modified, then I get a complete crash and have to reboot. If I click on "Explore the route", it usually works. Sometimes..."Test activity" works also. I haven't been able to determine why it works sometimes and others it doens't.how do I get rid of explore the route? Or, if I can't, how can I create one of those so that it doesn't keep taking over my "Test activity"? Thank you. Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Feb-08-02, 08:40 PM (EST) 1. "RE: Please help with creating first route activity" The first activity you create for a route will become the Explore Route activity, it just has any traffic or operating rules disabled from the one you created. If you change the path in the route and don't go into the activity editor and fix the broken path (with every change which affects the path) the game will crash when you select the route because it cannot create the default activity for the route. The same is true if the consist for the first activity becomes invalid because locomotives or cars have been modified/deleted. If it cannot create the default activity - it crashes.Richard Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
