[smyrick43]

I know this is a magicland, question but Im just putting this out for some
feed back. how can i setup switches in driver mode I running trains in
nycta any postive feed back would be good.

Can you please explain in further detail? Are you trying to throw switches without leaving the cab, or are you trying to set up the switches for an AI train so that it will follow the proper route?

Protip: proper grammar helps make your message clearer! :wave:

EDIT: Proper spelling helps, too! (note to self: it's grammar, not grammer! )

 

[smyrick43]

sorry about bad grammar, the second one is correct, throwing switches
so AI can run correctly

Allrighty...You can use the "Drive via Trackmark" command to make the AI follow the route you want it to; the AI is notorious for taking the shortest path from point A to point B, even if it makes no logical sense whatsoever.

im a little new to this , can you explain this please

The AI will change the points for you as it goes along. If it fails to go down the track you wish then place a trackmark some distance beyond the junction (name it) and in the driver set up give the command drive via trackmark.
