    Hello, I am wondering if anyone knows of a patch for the ECML merge which adds more destination markers for the route. As it stands now, if I want to start a scenario at Edinburgh I have to go into the scenario editor and jump to the station and manually place a scenario marker and I would like to be able to just select it from the list before I enter the editor.

    Does anyone know where I can find something like this?

    Thanks

    Create your own .bin and.csv file combination.
    These normally live in
    Assets\<provider name>\<product name>\RouteMarkers
    Look at a pair you do have to see how it's done.

    Thanks for the help. Are there any tutorials for doing this? For example I can edit the bin files in TS Tools but not sure about the cvs file and what I need to edit that. Also I don't know where to the find the route markers for this route. I have an assets folder labeled ATS but I don't find any folders relating to that route in there.

    Thanks

    The.csv (comma separated value) files open, and are edited, in Notepad or any other text editor.
    The destination lists on TS are simply a list of locations paired with their co-ordinates:

    <cCSVItem d:id="35036360">
    <X d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000C01E85C1BF" d:precision="string">-0.136875</X>
    <Y d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000600F874940" d:precision="string">51.055157</Y>
    <Name d:type="cDeltaString">Balcombe</Name>
    </cCSVItem>

    I've no idea where ATS have located the file for ECML as I don't have the route, sorry.

    You could ask on the ATS Facebook page or Forum as it is their "Merge"
    Somebody should know

    As it's a merge it may call for the donor routes' files---what's the first and last destinations in the list you can access and roughly how many locations are in it?
