Hi, I'm new to this forum. I have been operating the F7 on the Clinchfield route (PS5) and I find that when I arrive at Blue Diamond Tipple I can't alter the points with the PS5 DualSense Controller. I have watched a few Youtube clips in which the points are changed on the map, however, I suspect I may be watching PC versions. If I can't change points, then I can't shunt the consist and load coal. Any suggestions?
Do you go into the pause menu to access the map or do you use the map by clicking I think it's the options button opposite the pause button.
I’ve noticed around one of the yards (it’s been a while, so I forget which), where there’s a set of points which is always set against me. I set them right, and I can get across but straight afterwards I find them set back to their original position. It’s just the one set I found like this. I actually found I could travel over them despite being set against me. I can’t say it’s the same location, but there might be some other places where odd stuff might happening. If it doesn’t require too much time to get there, experiment and see if you can traverse the points regardless.
My experience occurs in Dante yard on scenario The Set Up, so different from OP’s. The switch concerned is a short distance behind the loco shed, it’s actually impossible to use controller because of proximity of another switch. But this switch automatically changes by the time you bring the loco back down the line. Checking today I also found another switch changing automatically further up the yard. Same path, same scenario.
