    Unable to get out of siding at start due to red signal, contact signaller does nothing . First mission on journey mode not a good start.

    Please name the route and Loco. Is freight exchange the name of the scenario? We are not mind readers...

    The scenario is called Frachtwechsel in German and it worked well in TSW 2020 although I couldn't get gold.

    I am quite positive that I did that one in Tsw2 already. Is it the one where you go from boele to hagen and back?

    I think this if I’m correct Is one of first missions where loco starts alone.

    you have red signal 60m in front, as your setting up train one passes. I waited nearly 15 mins and could not proceed. Another train seems stuck further up track.passing red ends scenario, no options, response from signaller.
    I encountered this today

    I just checked my record and I did all journey services up to and including heavy metal, freight exchange being the second mission.
    I somehow have the feeling that this scenario worked fine but got broken by the new service layer from the BR 363 shunter maybe?

    I am also stuck at the red, and tried waiting as well as contacting signaler, without any success. An update must have broken this, as it had worked in the past for others.

    as I said my guess is that the new BR 363 shunter added some services and connections that lead to this signal being red...

    For those who can not wait until the fix, as a temporary workaround it works to uninstall the BR 363,
    then doing the scenario and finally reinstall the BR 363. ;)

    I hope of course that it will be fixed anyway.

    Just bought this addon for TSW2 as a preserver collection part. Don't have any other stuff (like 363). The same issue as described in this topic, but also other missions including training two don't work. In "Rise and Shine", for example, I just can't start moving whatever I do.

    It's kinda weird to buy a new addon and be unable play ANY scenario :)

    Don't own that DLC, so that can't be the problem.

    Just had a go at that scenario, got the same issue. The first dwarf-signal does not switch to white and contact dispatcher gives no reply.

    I encountered the same issue today on TSW2, I don't own the BR 363 addon.

    In Rise and Shine, don't forget to close the outside door after you enter the front cabin. I had the same, but when I closed the door, I could move.

    I just couldn't resist trying this one. The claim that no other trains are present is false: first of all, there's a passenger train waiting to head west, but it never moves. After saving the scenario, I walked over to that train, entered the cab, and tried to sit in the driver's seat, but that request was denied. Rather than walk back, I quit to the main menu and then resumed the scenario.

    20201122120925_1m.jpg

    With that much time invested, I decided to hang around and see whether any other trains came along. And they did, all moving west to east: 9:25 passenger; 9:30 freight; 9:38 freight. All of these, however, passed on the main line and shouldn't have affected my progress. The dispatcher just seems absolutely ignorant of this train's existence! As someone pointed out earlier, pressing the Tab key and clicking on the Dispatcher icon produces no result whatsoever.

    I have no use for terms such as "bugged" or "broken", but DTG should take a look at this scenario and return it to driveability.

    Yep, it is broken as described. I do not have the 363 loco either

    I suggest also logging a ticket with support if it hasn't been done already so it can be passed onto Adam's team to look at

    Same here. Amazing how they don't solve it. They sell the DLC, they don't let us use it, and they don't do anything to solve it. Revolting.

    I don’t see how the addition of another timetable layer for the 363 could affect an unrelated scenario, unless they’ve done that thing where they’ve reversed the locos everywhere like in TVL. It’s a mystery.

    I had reported the bug and DTG replied that they already know the bug and it is being investigated. I hope it will be fixed quickly. So does the other bug I have.

    It's a first step, but I hope they will be able to reproduce the issue. It seems to be too easy an excuse to pretend not to be able to. And if it's not an excuse, we must assume that there's a lack of either competence, commitment or perseverance.

    Just wanted to add it's the same issue on PS4 (which likely isn't a surprise). Waited for 30 minutes to see if it cleared up.
    I see it on the Road Map in the planning section. They shouldn't have a problem reproducing it with so many players reporting it here.

    I had that issue as well. I found that you can cheat a bit. If you forgot to close the door then clicking the Passenger Doors Close switch on the right of the desk seems to shut it.

    On the bug in Freight Exchange, I had that as well today so I'm glad that its on the Roadmap. I notice that it shows the next signal on the HUD as being the red light 60m away, as if the HUD doesn't see the dwarf signal but the check on SPAD'ing does.

    Same issue, and I have never had the 363 DLC so that isn't causing it.

    The fix is not in the update, why do you expect it to work now?

    Well they broke it with an update as it worked in the past so was hoping that another update might fix it.

    It should be an easy enough fix- just put in the Contact Signaller subroutine. "Proceed at restricted speed", hold PzB override and you're off.

    The problem with this scenario is that there´s no path set for player´s locomotive. If you open map you can´t see any blue tracks ahead of you. That´s why override request is not producing any answer and shunting signal stays red.

    Cheers

    Wish I knew about this bug before I bought this DLC today.
    What a waste of money!
    Bugs like this are deal breaking and should be addressed ASAP!

    Drama queen much?

    Ruhr-Sieg Nord has almost 300 services to run with just the base engines alone before DLC, , and you are saying you wasted your money because one is temporarily bugged?

    Hagen Boele is fine. With signaller permission, or if the shunt signal shows two diagonal whites, "proceed at yard speed," 15km/h
