Deleating Routes

You hit the delete button in the Surveyor menu!:wave: :D

Ah, you need to read better my sinking friend. He asked how to delete routes from the DLS and we can not delete routes from the DLS, only Auran Staff can.

Sorry I was rushing when I typed that. What I want to ask is if you have downloaded something from DLS and you want to delete it.

Thanks Patrick
 
2004 or 2006?
If its 2006 open up CMP then find your "object" then right click it and click delete.

Hope this may somehow possibly might help:hehe:

Bear in mind that deleting the route won't delete its dependencies, which often number in the several hundreds.

Trainz Objectz can be used to list and delete orphaned dependencies but only with TRS2004. I believe there is a method available in TRS2006. Perhaps someone would like to kindly post details - or even better, add them to the Trainz Wikibook?

Hi,

For 2006 I delete the route & dependencies like this:-

Open CMP, search form "location = local" + "category = routes" and select the route to be deleted.

Right click select "show dependencies" from the menu. This list them in a pop-up window.
Now use th e button "view in main screen" - and all of the dependencies are listed. Control-A (or select all), then "delete" - and they are gone.

Now return to the CMP list of routes, select the route and delete that.

You will receive error messages if you try to delete built-in content - these can be ignored.

The only problem is that you may delete a dependency that's used by another route... You won't find out until you look at all the routes you have installed and look for the missing dependency flag (or try to load the route).

One way of reducing the impact is to Archive the route + dependencies (create a new archive for deleted routes). Carry on as before - deleting everything - if you need a deleted asset CMP will pull it from the archive. Once you're happy that the archive isn't needed you can delete it - this saves you re-downloading.

Colin,

Can I copy and paste that info into the Trainz Wikibook, or you do it?

Say if you're not happy about that, no problem.

Hi John,

No problems at all! - It would save additional errors if you could do it for me.....

Not to mention that I wrote that from memory .....

No probs, will do. I see someone has already kindly started the TRS2006 section so I'll add yours to it. Everyone else can then proof-read it.
