Tried to create a act. for Saluda route using AG4 and got the following message: Template calls for car type CL, but there is no car of that type in the SWLACT CSV file. Contact the template author. Unable to create activity. I check template with A.M. and it showed the template had CL type cars in it. Anybody else have this problem or know what going on. Dennis got any ideas.

 I used A.M. on the template before I tried to use AG4 to be sure that I wouldn't be missing any rolling stock for it.

Hi Dave,

Have rechecked all four CSV TDB and CSV files and located the file from which originated the problem. I have corrected the problem and sent the updated package to Steve. You should see it soon uploaded. Thanks for pointing this out.

Hi Dave & Denis:

Yes Activity Master was correct, there WERE cars of type CL in the activity (it's smart to check templates this way first to make sure you have the rolling stock you need!)  But in the template Denis left off the type "CL" in one of the template files.  Denis has very quickly corrected this and I have posted his update to the site.

Dave, thanks for catching this and reporting it.

Denis, thanks for such a swift turnaround on the correction!

Happy Railroading,

Steve

I'm now having a problem creating an act. for the eb temp. Three times I have tried to create an act with different criteria each time and I get the same error message: Run-time error '13': Type mismatch.

 I used the wb temp with no problem.DG

 

Hi Dave,

I have rechecked both the Activity (ACT) and the track database(TDB) CSV files. I have found differences in car types. Have made corrections in the TDB file. Have sent Steve the updated Template zip file.

Thanks again for your vigilance and taking the time to report it here in the forum.

Denis

I have just posted this update.  Thanks Dave for catching this, thanks Denis for fixing it so quickly!

Steve,

What exactly do I need to replace in the Saluda
temps. As per my email to you about AM not changing
one of the traffic cons. I really don't want to mess with
that again. DG

Just the csv files.  They won't overwrite any of the rolling stock changes you made.

Thanks,

Steve
