More TPII Problems Options

[spguy]

Hi-

I don't know if I'm the only one who's having problems with AM/AG and TPII; but it seems that everytime I create an activity and then attempt to change out the 3dts rolling stock, or just change out the 3dts rolling stock in an exisitng activity, I get various error messages, "Run Time 6" mostly, followed by something about a "rigid car body" or "rigid body" when I try to start the sim...I've only been getting these messages on this route...any ideas? I seem to recall it being said that "run Time 6" had something to do with missing files? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Rigid car body errors can mean that rolling stock was placed where there isn't room for it -- possibly because you replaced rolling stock of one length, with longer rolling stock. Also, if you get an error message in Activity Master, you should restore the original activity, you should not attempt to run an activity modified by Activity Master if AM generated an error while replacing the rolling stock, as the results will be unpredictable.

I'm more interested in exactly what error messages you get, and what causes them (what you do, when do they come up, what do they say, etc.?) Generally all of these are caused by rolling stock problems. I highly recommend going through all your rolling stock using ConBuilder and/or RouteRiter to sort out and fix any problems first. AM SHOULD run without any errors.

Thanks and sorry about the problems,
