Editing the Driver schedule while in session - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • I have setup one of my AI drivers to drive a schedule which consists on "coupling" to freight car and then driving to the freight car then hauling to to unload and then i have it set to repeat. My question: Is there away or a rule to remove the "couple" command from the schedule during the session., besides doing it manually?
  • I would set up in the schedule library two sets of commands: the first with the couple/uncouple command and the second one omitting it. Use the 'copy commands from' and insert the first library command, then 'enable repeat' and then finally the second library command. What this does is the first time the train will perform the couple/uncouple action and then in the future repeats of the route this action will not be performed.

Help on driver setup please (basic 101?) - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • 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

Trains stopping at stations - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • if you use the copy command from (library) it's one command per lap if you will. you have to set this up in surveyor under edit session. download schedule library command, then add this to your list of driver commands for the session(copy commands from). add schedule library to the main list then edit this with a list of commands as per your question. very handy if you've got 5-6 different sets of commands that you use often. _______________

Creating & Saving a Scedule in Driver - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • Top left of screen, in dropdown surveyor menu select edit session, then in new window select driver commands, in next new window click on add then scroll down till you find schedule library select it and click on the green tick. You will also need the (copy commands from) command found the same way. Don't forget to name and save your schedule so you can recognise it next time you want to use it
  • Append attaches commands after commands that are already in the driver's command line, insert places a whole string of new commands.
  • I don't have TS2009 yet but since no one else has tried to help yet i'll give it a go. Once you have loaded the map you want you will have to place at least one loco before you can start a schedule. Placing the loco should aut

  • May I add a little note re the "append" and "insert" selection. I have used this method a few times and found some interesting results when applied to different types of Schedules.

Making the impossible possible. Multiple Multiple Industries. - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • Not done it for quite a while but it is fairly easy Best thing is to goto trainzproroutes forum, check lars forum for the protolars manual. It's all to do with the properties i.e ? click on industry then in produce? make it EXTERNAL and link to industry you want to. Manual explains it better than I can . Paul
  • such industries exist for one year ago in Vol4 LaFrance en Trains: there are multiple tracks multi industries with 3 releases : 2, 3 or 4 tracks. On each track you can define "out" or "in" products and between theses queues how and under which rate some products are made... You can also define a "transitionnal" product made by the industry and linked with a first product supplied on one track and this product can be defined as an enter in another queue combined with another product supplied to made a final one ready to load.... Such industries are supllied as "basic"(only tracks are supplied) or as "neutral" with some buildings around each tracks. These industries are compatible with any products even if some of FET are not used...you can make yours...and use them with this system... Name of tracks are editable for scheduling...Ten queues available, Five different process ...on each industry. Here some beer made with water, alcool and hops...

Industry Training Session? - Page 2 - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • I've put together a little demo - mouse click on this link and download the file: http://rapidshare.com/files/211284902/KRL_demo.cdp The cdp file contains the test route, a test session and all the dependencies for the freight car. Just drag and drop the cdp file into the main pane of CM2.
  • I downloaded/commited Philskene's KRL 7 pieces for this asset. All show a yellow puzzle piece with ?. View errors & warnings all show the .pm mesh nolonger unsupported statement and #4 also has a missing black.texture statement in its load_mesh folder. The View Dependencies shows missing bogies :128 and :129. I wonder why CM2 didn't automatically download them since they are dependencies. I download/committed the 2 bogies, :128 shows error can't load shadow/shadow.pm. Looked at the :128 bogey file contents but there's no shadow folder or mesh. The easiest correction for this type of error is to add a mesh-table container to the config.txt file to reference the .pm mesh that is there. Also made a small (32x32) black square .jpg and a black.texture.txt file for the load_mesh folder. Saved and committed. Now, all 7 kuids only show the yellow ! because of the .pm meshes but tried them out and all can be place on a track in Surveyor.

Industry Training Session? - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • I suggest the first thing you do is to search on the Download Station for "Products". When you do this you will find heaps of different things that can be carried. At the same time you will find a lot of "Industry Tracks" available as well.
  • Another suggestion I would make is that when you are building a route, add a spare baseboard to it. On this place some tracks that you can put your choices on and you can also place buildings etc so that you can just go there and click on the item with the get selection in the flyout and you have your modified unit to place at other spots. I found the best way is to just try things out, if it works ok then keep a noteboke and jot it down for future reference.
  • For example using a built-in industry, the coal mine. I create a consist of different hoppers that can carry coal on a empty track. Then using the Get Consist button in Consist mode, I save the consist as Auran Coal Mine - Coal. This gives me a ready made consist to place on any route

Two Questions. 1.Sound... 2.LARS - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • Your cattle question...the reason you can't send your AI driver to the packing plants is the way the layout is setup for the Class 1 trains that are running. If you look at the layout in Surveyor you will see that there are direction arrows so they keep to their tracks. What I did was save the layout under a different name and do away with the Class 1(remove the portals) and use the tracks for normal dual track setup. Remove the direction arrows and sort out the signals and you have a great railroad freight system that can run from one end of the layout to the other with a number of consists at the same time. I still keep an original version of the layout because I enjoy doing the great sessions that Phil has created. There is a flour hopper on the DLS, VR VPFX kuid 2:1854:1596:1 O So Lite. There is also a plain one, kuid 2:1854:1595:1. Another hopper you might find handy is the VR JX kuid 50567:108979
  • I'll try to work more with that Beth gondola 86311:999116 and looking at the config.txt, although I think I'm not informed enough to understand that stuff yet, BUT maybe I could understand it!

New route - Downtown Traction Company - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • -EDIT-- It's freeware from Trainz Eastern routes on the Youngstown Southern Railway Page. The page wasn't available when I tried just now, so I hope that the locomotive still is available.
  • I currently have 2 F30's released, and series of F22 flat cars. here's some links CR F30-a PRR F22's PRR F30-a There's not much good 1950's era content out. That i know of. but if u search majekear on the DLS u should be able to find a good amount of 40ft boxcars with animated doors and hopper cars.
  • Nice, but those overhead wires look a bit too modern. Search on the DLS under the user names jaleel or motorman1066 for some more appropriate ones.

Shunt signals - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • For Trainz AI control of shunting moves it's no so much the signalling as the use of Trackmarks and Driver commands such as "Drive to Trackmark" and "Couple at Trackmark" that you need to look at. You may also need to use invisible signals to help the AI.

  • You will need to follow these instructions exactly in order to use this fix. Download the new common.gs script from the link on the right (Right-click and 'save link as' or 'Save target as') Copy the updated common.gs file into the scripts folder (replacing the current one) Edit the trainzclassicoptions.txt file and add "-script" (without the quotes) onto the bottom of the file Start TC3 (It will recompile the scripts so will take a few seconds longer than usual) Check you can change the start amount of an industry Close TC3 and edit the trainzclassicoptions.txt file to remove the "-script" line

    I think you might be talking about the file trainzoptions.txt found under \Auran\TRS2004 Trainzobjectz has a page devoted to tweaking the trainzoptions.txt file, gives helpful explanations of the various settings available etc. So get Trainzobjectz and look in there. http://www.trainzobjectz.co.uk/
