Consist will not move

[big_b]

Just set up 1 board to check 2 track container station to check which are load and unload sides
then set up driver command (Drive to container station ) - ( load ) - (drive to track mark )
then went to driver consist wont move
but if I just do a straight track and drive to track command mark at other end it moves
Any ideas or do i need to create a separate session to get it to work

Also how to get messages to show as to what the problem is?

Check the track connecting the start point to the container station to the trackmark - does it have broken joints? An easy method is to manually drive the consist.

track is good

Also how to get messages to show as to what the problem is?

On the lower left side of the screen, under the drivers drop down, there is a "settings" icon (a gear wheel).

Be advised, the messages you get may be ambiguous and/or erroneous.




If you put a track mark before the container station...

TM End ------------- Cont Stat-----------TM Before------------Loco
Drive To/Navigate to TM Before
Drive To/Navigate to TM End

Does that work?

One improvement in trs19 is the reports regarding what is going on stays visible.
What does the signal tell you? I take it you are sitting at a junction.

it was more like it couldn't see the industry

Simply command the consist to "Navigate to (the Industry name and Platform number), then issue Load or Unload commands, and see if that works.
Ensure that you have empty (or full) wagons of the appropriate commodity/ type to load or unload for that track/ industry.
It might be that your trackmark at the industry entrance is too close to the industry track for it to recognise the Navigate to... command.

A simple loop track will sometimes block because the drive logic thinks the track is obstructed (by the same consist). Most users would never see it but these sort of simple tests will make it happen.
