v1.4 Track Monitor Mileposts

[charland]

Just made a couple of runs on the FJ&Gv2 and it really is no different. Ran in ORv1.4 and ORNYMG and had the same results.

I just reloaded the FJ&Gv2 and am bout to take a quick run. I'll see how they work on it.

Same here. The and shapes numbers render just fine. They drop from the monitor. After I pass the next track node, sometimes they reappear. Sometimes it takes passing nodes downline.

I've only seen this happen in multitrack sections, and I figured it was related to how the upcoming TDB gets read.

[charland]

Yes, and they are always present in v1.3.

Does the disappearing MP iissue occur only in activity manual and explorer mode, or also in activity auto mode?

I just noticed this happening with the Can99 V2 Route in both Manual and A/P modes. It disappears then suddenly the markers come back on. They are always present trackside in the Sim.

If you were running OR
and an error message came up
you would have been given the
option of posting the error to OR.

Try agin and send as requested

Cheers

Thanks, Jean-Marc.
It would be nice if this situation could be reproducible with a legacy MSTS route and a legacy MSTS activity, because I have no idea on how to generate a test case.

Hello Carlo,
First, thanks for your great job in OR.
Second tested in activity mode and autopilot "on".
Regards

Thanks! This is a new route and I've just not gotten far enough to be adding signals, but it's nice to hear the milepost problem will go away!

Hello Paul,
I have the same issue on my route. I put a signal type NORMAL at the end of the trackwork (34 km after the last signal), test in activity mode, the MP are showing in the track monitor 7 kilometers before the signal. Tested in OR MG rev 125.3

[charland]

I just laid this route, only 30 miles with a yard at each end. I was testing using v1.3 and never had an issue. Started testing in v1,4 and it's screwing up mileposts every time.

I've noticed it over the past year or so. The more complex the trackwork, the more likely it is to manifest itself.

Hi Gerry,

I've had them off for the last few tests but I'll try the next test with dynamic shadows on just to see if it's worth having them and what effect it has on the performance.

Paul :-)

Paul, I like using dynamic shadows, however, depending upon other options chosen and the machine specs, it can put a real noticeable drag on performance and fps.
