Does the rule IT end one day ?

[vincentrh]

Say a session where a nice interlocking tower (the invisible TRC3 one of course !) manages pathes that are all configured as 'manual'.

So, in the course of the session, as I need to define a path for my train, I use the rules as bellow :



And...it doesn't work. I would say that the rule 'set path' behaves as if it never completes. And the schedule stops here.

Finally I tinkered with a solution :



The trick consists in configuring the rule 'simultaneous list' to end as soon as one of its child rules has completed : as the rule 'wait' comes to and end after 3 seconds, the 'simultaneous list' ends too and there is no more need to wait for the completion of the rule 'set path'.

It's not much of a solution...Anyone find out better ?

Hi Vincent.

I think you need to report a bug to N3V support desk. I have looked at IT Set path rule code, and the code is correct until it detects the path assigned has been activated, where there is a bug as it reacts by pausing all the children rules instead of unpausing them ...!!! Quite easy bug to fix for N3V but we need to report to them the problem.

If you are interested I can send you a temporary fix for this rule, but we still need N3V to fix it so that the builtin base code is fixed ...

Regards.
Pierre.

Thanks Pierre

It's amazing that nobody discovered yet this bug... Anyway, I'll do the report. And, of course, I'm interested in your fix.

Merci
