Multiple Industry New

[dzien50]

Does any else have fatal error messages when using this industry ? Is it a known fault and is there a cure or just don't use them ?
Thanks

Hi,

No fatal errors for me, I use the M.I.N (Multiple Industry New) all the time, the only thing I can think of straight away is have you set it up correctly?

It is a little tricky to setup the first time, but once you have done it you'll see its a very good asset to any layout.

Hi Thanks for reply, obviously I think I've set them up correctly but I don't know how I would know ? however if your using them all ok I have probably made an error somewhere with them. Is there anywhere that I can read up on them for correct set up ?
Thanks

Hi,

My Trainz site has a Tutorial on how to setup the M.I.N, have a read and see.

Hi, Thanks I have checked your site and the only thing I had not done was to allocate a wagon to the industry, as I wanted to use more than one type of wagon. Is this my mistake, ? can you only allocate one wagon, and must you ?
I thought that by leaving it at " none" it would load any wagon ok, which it does so I don't know if this is the fault or not. I'll have to keep playing around with it. Thanks again for your help.

Having more than one wagon doesn't affect the industry. However it would be advised that you put all the wagons into the part where you choose what loads into what. But sometimes I don't aassign it (like for Steam loco coaling) and it works.

Hi,

Yes, you have to at least allocate/specify one wagon for the M.I.N to work correctly, but it doesn't matter if you use different wagons to load at the M.I.N or a combination of the wagon you specified/allocated and different wagons together.

Hope that makes sense...

Yeah all makes sense, It seems then my problem was not allocating any wagon to the industry, so I'll try this and hopefully now all will work. Thanks very much for your time to help me, much appreciated.
