[sgdavis]

Two of our users reported a problem with version 3.1.0 of Activity Generator.  The problem was with a "File Already Open" error that would come up when saving the activity.

This has been corrected in version 3.1.1.  It is available for your download on the "Patches & Updates" page.

Happy Railroading!

Steve,

When working on my template for NJC West Shore Terminal I have found that for the template to work I have to set the route to STOP AND PROCEED as default. This is due to the complexity and multipal directions the route goes. No mater how you set the paths and usualy after hrs of trouble free switching the dispatcher will let you into a block and not let you out.

Yesterday I was switching N. Bergen yard heading south the block signal at the end of the yard was red, knowing I was operating under "STOP AND PROCEED" I entered the block at reduced speed and bang I was hit with end of game for passing a RED.

This was not the first signal I had incountered during this session, they all let me "STOP AND PROCEED" it was near the end of  3 hrs switching  between West Shore Terminal and N. Bergen yard. 

I restarted the saved game and my second attempt at the block I decided to ask the dispatcher permission and recieved a "OK TO PROCEED".

I guess with MSTS when you see a red it never hurts to ask even if you have the route set to peremissive, don't assume that the SIM follows logic.

Thanks,

Peter
