njc prr template Options

[ideaman]

Good day Steve. I was wondering if I could get you to have a look at this template as I am having problems with it. It was made by Jim Smith back in 11-01-2003 for version 1.5. The first thing it will not show up in any of the utilities although I can make an activity  and the act will show up. The problem arises when I generate an act the usfreightcar4 fails to initiate <200010> rigidbody. Also car <200281> does the same thing. Now I went into the activity editor and found one car that is off the end of the track but cannot find the other one. This happens each time I make an act but where I cannot get into the template itself I cannot cure the problem. I had this on when it first came out but i can't remember if their was a problem with it then. I have all the templates that were made for this route and all work fine except this one. Thanks for any help. Greg.

Greg,

I have run into the same problems. I found that in the Newark Pier area there are 2 consist on some of the piers "track" and when you generate a switch list the 2 grow towards each other and overlap giving you get an error.

If you go into activity editor and move the consists closer together then flip the direction on one of the consists so ther will grow away from each other it may help. I found you have to be careful on you number of cars to add to a siding on this route as it was made to work with the older switch list generator.

Another option is to give the SLG classic a try.

This is a fun part of the route and should be redone to AG3 to work correct.

hope this helps.

Peter

PS It looks like Norman answered the question before I could post mine but looks for the double consists it may help.
