One last appeal to N3V

From what I've seen that part of it usually works well in TS2010, only dropping the ball occasionally on one or two textures. That makes it hard to pin down the cause, especially when it's not always the same texture and any given texture that fails to make it into the KUID table doesn't ALWAYS fail, one of them unholy evil intermittent gripes.

Anyway, this one is duplicatable;

Chicago Metro V2 CTA Session 1,<kuid:522774:100545>

No missing dependencies, no errors or warnings.

Get a script error, try to edit the schedule library and it crashes every time.

And the error report sender gizmo needs a patch too. :hehe: Okay, so reading the email addy in the message, this time I decided to manually send it in, found three others and zipped up the whole smash.

Strange part;

I started over from scratch to recreate that same session in TS2009 SP4, no difference from the one created in TS2010, yet the new one does not crash or throw script errors. Note the pantz 2 command;

pantz is installed, the session depends on having it installed, so it really should be added to the KUID table so it downloads automatically or the session won't work right for the end user who doesn't have it installed. Looking at the profile.dat file in a hex editor, search for "pantz",

And all I get is the trackmarks by that name, the command itself looks like it's just listed as "8" for "pantz 2". Obviously the information on what that command is must be somewhere in the file or surveyor and driver wouldn't know what it was or how to use it, how difficult would it be to reprogram surveyor to pick the KUID numbers of commands, rules and scripts and add them to the KUID table?
 
Boy, you just gotta love this. After getting the route working in TS2009 I finished editing version 3, saved to CDP and imported into a virgin copy of TS12 to test, got that working. Then imported same into a virgin copy of TS2010, unknown dependency <kuid2:72730:37102:5>

What that is;
GT-Gleis RailOnly,<kuid2:72730:37102:3>

Probably part of TS2009 SP4, changed to;
gt bridgetrack railOnly,<kuid2:72730:37102:5>

TS12 knows what that is, TS2009 SP4 knows what that is, TS2010 never heard of it.

An old MSTS friend recently broke down and bought TS2010, told me he was getting script errors for Chicago Metro V2 CTA Session 1,<kuid:522774:100545> so I tested that in a virgin copy of TS2010, sure enough the usual nonsense about drivercommand.gs line yadayada. Primary suspect lotharlake's driver characters, which recently had a KUID2 update, so TS2010 wants to obsolete those but can't find the newest versions. The whole KUID2 replacement programming needs to go back into beta, I'm not getting any work done on route creation because I'm too busy troubleshooting a zillion problems the developers should have caught before the game was sold.
