Avanti West Coast Class 390 Pendolino Tilt Control When Switching Cabs

Was messing around with this train on a long and fast loop around the training centre just to try out a few of the controls and found something odd with the tilt settings.

Not sure if it is a bug, or if I am missing something.

Set the first cab up as usual flying around the track and turn on the tilt control isolate (trying both switches). All good, warning light comes on and alert sounds until switched off with both.

Then stop and shut this cab down and go to the other end of the train and set that end up in exactly the same way, acknowledging alarms etc.. off I go on my loop again, but this time, no response from the tilt control when activated, no warning light, no alert, no response from the train (both switches again).

So I stop, shut this cab down and go back to other end of train again (the end that was all working as intended), but now the tilt control at this end does not work anymore either, can do everything else fine, but nothing from either the switch near the fuse box or the temp switch on the front panel.

Tried this a couple more times on different tracks just to see if I had done something wrong, or it was a training centre glitch, but exactly the same every time.

Strange. Maybe I am getting something totally wrong, but can't figure out what it would be. As i said everything else was working fine from both cabs.

Any ideas?

 

Have tried this a couple more times and still can't figure out what I could be doing wrong, so maybe it is a bug?

 

As an extra note.

This bugs out the Pend-No-Lean-No scenario on WCML, because although you can still get past the isolating of the tilt when switching ends by following the commands, the system is not actually isolated as per the alarm not lighting and the train behaviour not changing, so it's basically pointless doing it.

 

And there are any number of videos online of this scenario, where people are playing it through without realising that although you can technically finish it (as just turning the isolate key clears the instruction), it has not actually worked at all in terms of the alarm being triggered and the tilt being disabled!!

 

If you turn the reverser off again (even when just using car 1) after clearing the initial three alarms, you break the tilt function as well, so there must be something in the code that just needs a little tweak.
