MSTS Activity Event Limits Options

[Don Klaebel]

I have been working on an activity for the Lehigh Valley and have run into the problem of exceeding the number of activity events that MSTS can handle which I believe is 99. I thought that being able to put multiple pickups in one action event would enable me to get around the problem. Not so. I just lost another template.

The only way that I see to get around this is to enter around 50 pickups. Save and close. Create the car csv file. Change the name of the csv file. Bring up the template activity in the Activity Editor again. Delete all action events. Add another 50 or so pickups. Save and close. Create another car csv file. Copy the contents of that csv file to the first csv file. You now have 100 cars in that one. Bring up the template in the
Activity Editor again. so on and so on until all of the cars are in the csv file.

I note that in the Gallup Sub, you have about 348 cars in the csv file, but only 18 pickups in the Action events.

If there is an easier way of doing this, please let me know. Thanks.

Maybe we can prevail on George to increase this limit to 500 pickups in his next revision to BIN.
