Using Activity Master;

One of the headings under "Rolling Stock Available" "Id Unknown button" list or "Show all" list, is "Load?"

Some of these are checked with an "X" and some are not.
What if anything is this category for?

PS:I tried the search feature and got a lot more than I bargained for. unsure.gif
(none of which related to my question.)

Bear,
If it is the load activity button, this is to load an activity that you want to change rolling stock in or one an activity that come up with missing rolling stock when you try to run it and need to add rolling stock.

Here is a link that may help you on what each button does.

Hope this helps.

While looking at your car list, the 'Load?' column was to indicate whether or not the cars were loaded or empties. The question and answer below was copied from another post. The answer was written by Steve some time back.

"3. The CARTYPES.CSV that ships with ActivityMaster has an entry in column 3 (E, L or X) that seems to indicate a loaded or empty wagon. I know that this is not currently implemented, but should I included this column in my custom CARTYPES.CSV file to be ready for an expected update.


You are very astute to notice that! I decided to handle this a different way though, I just name the cars differently depending on whether they are loads or empties. So for instance CL will be a loaded coal car and CLMT will be an empty coal car. So if a CL is sitting in a spur, the default "CARTYPEWANTED" will be CL so if designing a template you'd want to change that to "CLMT". I did this instead of just "load" and "empty" because sometimes its important, for certain industries, to note what KIND of load the car has -- this is especially the case with flat cars and gondolas in many of the templates Norm and I have created."


Hope that answers your question.

Jim
