Dose anybody know if there is a tutorial on gawpo50 animated switch. Or can anyone tell me how to make them work. Thanks funnnyfarm
 
You don't have to do anything special to use these great turnouts. Just place them and attach some track to them. You can active the switch by clicking on it or by pressing the J key or Ctrl J.

Pressing the j Key... It works from some locos, but not from others.. Also, it says in the manual that you can click on the arrows of the turnout to change it. It works from outside of the cab, used to be from inside of the cab too, but not lately. Anybody has some comments? Just in case anyone ask.. I set my turnout radius to bear minimum, so I can change them right there if needed.
 
My guess would be he means the radius at which if a traincar is present, the switch is locked and can not be changed. This is set in Surveyor.
 
Gawpo50's FFR turnouts have a zero trigger radius. When the loco is on the switch point rails (the moveable rail) a small graphic of a padlock appears over the turnout to indicate the switch is locked and can not be changed. Otherwise you can activate the turnout from any direction.
