I finally got back to this one. Here's what I did, you can adapt it to your requirements. BTW this is in TRS2004 but all later versions should be identical or very similar. Layout: One baseboard, one straight track. In order: Where the loco starts Trigger TR1 Trackmark TM1 Trackmark TM2 Trackmark TM3 (It helps to put a building alongside each trigger/trackmark so you know where they are when driving) Place a loco at the starting position The objective is to make the loco drive to TM1, then drive back and forth between TM2 and TM3 forever. Rules (where each > represents one level of indent): Startup options - as normal Driver Setup - Drive to TM1 Driver Command - as normal Trigger Rule - Trigger TR1 > Ordered List - This process will be repeated 1 time > > Driver Setup - Drive to TM2, Drive to TM3, Repeat I hope you can copy this and get it going, and that it's of some help to you. I find one of the trickiest things is to keep the difference between Rules and Driver Commands clear in my head. John

more realistic AI-driver attitude I would like to see (as an update to all Trainz-Versions or at least as part of any new Trainz-Version) more realistic artifical inteligenced drivers in Trainz.

As for the "Ball and Flag" system given in this and another thread, we have the "Wait for Trigger..." driver command, which, I admit, is hidden by default. Go into the driver commands rule to make it visible. With enough forethought, it behaves in exactly the same way, Just on triggers and has to be inserted for every driver using that single track. Though that only works with AI. Us humans have the layout map. Having these automated systems would be a help, but there are already driver commands that work the same way.

I agree that the shortest route thing is annoying as well. I've gotten around it by by placing a trackmark on the main track, and I use that when I'm programming the drivers. Another thing I've done is to place a freight car or two on the sidings to force the AI to take the mainline instead of driving through the yard. I agree with Stefan. The routing should be based on locale rather than built-in short-distance seeking algorithms, which I think cause a lot of overhead on the program because the AI system is constantly seeking for an open path.

This is the second session for the TC3 version of "Port Ogden and Northern". See here for details of this route:

Well, I did import both PO&N and Riverside into TC3. There were a few hiccups, like the need to rotate all north-south industries by 0.1 degrees. There's a thread of mine in the TC3 forum about this. And links to the site where the routes can be downloaded. Sessions too.

US Railroad Works Presents Midwest Central A route for the Auran Trainz Railroad Simulator TRS2006 Updated 23 May 2009

Have you tried this template? http://members.westnet.com.au/nightc...template01.jpg Do a search on the DLS for CS_Yard and you will find it, CS_Yard Template_1 (KUID: 37522:9972). Lay your track along the template, then use the "straighten track" tool on the section in yellow sections like so, you will end up with this... http://members.westnet.com.au/nightc...template02.jpg I use this one all the time to create yards.

Hello Everyone, My route, Camp 6 is now on the DLS. Camp 6 is a kind of a demonstration route to show what logging was like in the Pacific Northwest, USA. The route is only one baseboard and is 36 ng. I have not been to Camp 6 in over 3 years and I created this from memory.

Cascade: In several of my scenarios, the automated ones of course, the view is from the ground actually from the perspective of the brakeman relining the switches and uncoupling. I have tried over the years to vary things so the scenarios would not get boring. That was the thought behind the tower view. Believe me scenario creation is no easy task but once in a while I get some very positive comments and that makes it worth while. Enjoy your hobby, I sure do. Gary

From the Uk perspective, try this post, you may of seen it already, it relates to someone suspected in trying to steal IP belonging to a member in the MSTS community: http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showp...2&postcount=12 And for the whole story: http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showt...179#post409179 (note, I am not an expert at law, so don't take my word as 100% true.) __________________
