    I’m building a career scenario. I’m doing Amtrak 49 lake shore limited from NYP and Schenectady, NY. I’m also having Ai metro north train running out of GCT, Poughkeepsie and croton-Harmon so the issues I been having is static consist clash with the Ai metro north trains I was wondering how can I fix it because it’s so annoying that it’s preventing the Ai to run if anyone knows a fix I would definitely appreciate it

    Check your routing, add waypoints to force the AI to use a specific path. Could also be a timing issue. Play around with service classes and AI service starting times. Sometimes changing it only a few seconds can resolve these issues.

    Can't say more as I don't have the scenario obviously so I can't check what's happening.

    It's a lot of trial and error in the beginning, you'll see things that may seem like a bug, but mostly they are not.

    Watch as many tutorials as you can.

    The term "Static Consist Clash" usually indicates that there are two trains in the same signal section, one of which will be the Player or an AI train, and the other loose wagons. Check and make sure the two trains concerned are separated by a signal.

    Also check that the train concerned is not on top of itself - sometimes wagons can be accidentally placed on top of each other (metaphorically!). Moving the train temporarily to the opposite line will reveal this.

    If the static consist is in a siding, but the route doesn't have a signal protecting it from the main line, you can place an "invisible AI signal" within the scenario - I use the one by "Newbouy" here: https://www.trainsimdev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=431&p=3398&hilit=scenario+tools#p3398 . I recommend to only do this if there is really no other option.

    Hope this helps.
