I create this thread in order to be a way, of contact between the person who created an Scenario on Creators Club, and a person who have download it, and have some problem or doubts how to proceed with it. Hopes creators replies to their "clients" in order to help them to complete the Scenario. So if you have a situation about it, please create a post below!. Please include the name of the Scenario first on your post, so the creator can contact you. Or may be another person who was successful to complete it, can also help you. Also include which platform you are using. I will be the first!
SCENARIO: Busy day on Sherman Hill PLATFORM: PS4 This scenario looks to be really nice. It starts as Laramie yard. I noticed this: 3 trains aligned to depart it. Mine, another AI train to my side with SD70ACE, with the engine and lights on - this means is ready to depart -, and another one the other side, but completely off But ahead is a red light. So a train will be coming first. Check the map, and yes, that will be happening. PROBLEM 1: When the train arrives to the yard, it get stopped!. So I checked the switches, and surprisingly I noticed them are still on "manual" mode. This is strange due to AI trains on their paths get the switches on "automatic" mode. I mean they follow they programmed path. So I started trying to manipulate them in order to find the right path for that train, which of course I do no know. Unfortunately there were 4 possible tracks this train I guess could use. As always happens, the right one, was the last try! Please notice for that AI train to arrive to the yard it takes 9 minutes! So I have to spend 32 minutes to find it out! OK this problem solve. PROBLEM 2: I got my train moving, get out of the yard and goes to the line in order to get final destination on Cheyenne Yard. Special MESSAGE for DTG : Why on an SH Scenario created by us, no AI train goes on the 2 tracks part of the route? All paths to and from Laramie yard, use the single track part of the route! So I proceed on the single track. After some miles I noticed first 2 yellow lights and then a red light (looking at the map), so I get worried because this is a single track. But checking the map I discovered there is a siding before the red light. Ok nice. Another train is coming, so I will have to wait for it and then proceed. But when approaching to that red light, suddenly it turns to green! Strange. Then I continue. Some miles ahead another yellow light. Checked the map again, and finally another red light. But this time there is no siding! Checked the map further away, and noticed this time a train is coming to my position!. I noticed it was yet on the 2 track section - the one after the 1 track - so there was a chance it will stop before. But no, it had green light! Then I am "dead". Both train on opposite directions on just one track, you can not continue and finish the Scenario!. I remember to contact dispatcher. May be could be a solution, and let me pass the red light and continue, as the other train had not reached the one track line. When I did it, I saw a new message never seen before: "Red light not allowed to proceed. May be you are out of your timetable" (Please notice I did not remember the exact message, but was something like that) Then my question was... Where is my timetable? This is a freight train. So I have no chance but cancel this Scenario!. But this was a pity! Because it seems to be very interesting. So all what I have mentioned it was caused by lack of information, and simulator problem - related to the AI train stacked at the beginning! Please notice I have reported this before, as I suffered that with Scenario I created for this route. AI trains on Sherman Hill, when they are getting the first switch of a big yard, get stopped! Second how I could know how fast I have to drive my train in order to not suffer above mentioned situation? I leave Laramie Yard, just when the AI train finally passed by. Then I increase speed, but as a heavy freight does. Step y step, not just "jumping" to throttle 8 position. If the creator of the Scenario - or other person of this community can help me I would appreciate it.
I got to pass the first part of the Scenario - really pushing hard the heavy freight train! not as usually will be driven - , but then I got stacked with another red light on other part of the route! Unfortunately No contact yet from joseph.
