That red bug .................

[Mike_Brown]

Can anyone tell me how to deal with these please, and also, perhaps, give some idea of what the effect of these script errors might be? I have checked CMP for warnings, faulty/missing dependencies etc, but can find no problems.

Download the Kuid and see how you go.

Very curious. Both scripts use the same bit of code and the problem is occurring at the same place in that section of code. All I can tell is that this occurs after a decoupling and a call to the DirectionMonitor() thread is failing. That bit of code is likely to be present in a lot of locomotive scripts.

I tried both locos in TS12 HF4 and coupled and decoupled a few times with different consists and had no failures. I can only speculate that perhaps the available number of threads is exhausted and a new one cannot be allocated. This might be a memory problem, a very busy session or none of those things.

There doesn't appear to be anything inherently wrong with the code so I suggest you raise a trouble report with N3V.

CMP will not flag these sorts of errors since it is a logic error or perhaps an underlying system issue.

Thank you for the responses.
The history of this is that a few days ago I downloaded a bunch of Class 47's and 55's and placed one of each onto a route, neither of them connected at any time to any other rolling stock. The red bug appeared when going into Driver. I have since tried all the Class 47's and 55's I have, and they all produce the same error - with or without attached rolling stock. Doing the same thing with 29's, 31's and 37's (and a random steam loco - J39, I think) produces no errors.
I will raise a ticket - but I hope they're quicker than they were the last time I raised a ticket!
Again - thank you.

The red bug appears only on the launch into the driver section in my case. I just ignore it as it does not appear in game after the start. It would seem to be the asset is looking for the item but has not found it at this point in time so the bug appears. On launch a lot of assets have to be found and loaded into the route. Those same engines do not make the bug appear when that same engine appears from a portal. If it was a bug related to the engine then it should show when a portal creates that engine but it does not.

I have noticed when I get the red bug ( a few of my Garrats cause this ) and I hit control/rightclick for example to check total train weight the box comes up with no info displayed. I just go with the flow and still have fun anyway, don't understand the gibberish written when one clicks the red bug anyway.
