Max consists?

[Ghost42]

I have fifteen consists serving industries, I have trouble with the final one added, it shows a question mark instead of dsriver and is immobile.
Is there a max number of consists to any scenario?

No that just means it has no driver.

A driver has been assigned, complete with instructions. Shows in the driver setup.

I am assuming these are all AI trains? If so, you may have thought of this, but have you checked that Driver Owner is set to AI and not Autodetect, or one of the other options? I've been tripped up by that before with only one train during test runs!

Hi, If you find question marks over any rolling stock, delete them and replace them with something else. If it's a loco riding the tail of a consist, do the same and make sure you have allocated only one driver in the Driver Setup (Edit Sessions) - Don't allocate one for each loco or it won't know what to do when you set your route.

I think the AI/Autodetect may apply to ts2009 only as there is not a choice in ts2010. Wiki writeup is for 2009.
After much fiddling/running/surveyor bouts I now find that in Quickdrive the driver is not assigned though I have set him up in surveyor.
Never use quickdrive, can it be taken out of the session?

Not sure about what 2010 has (I have 2009 and 2012). But this is what I see in Surveyor when I click on the third item from the left (Autodetect):



Does it work if you go straight to Driver out of Surveyor?

 

[Ghost42]

That choice is not available in 2010, I have scrapped and re-written the session and have fifteen consists operating with an AI driver in each.
Now sorting out the loads...
