I think Ben has a valid point. Let's not spend time troubleshooting a script until you install SP1 and verify if it works or not.
Thanks

Trainz06 with SP1 installed.
My copy of Trainz came with SP1 on a seperate CD. I'll look around and try to find the URL. Things are a bit sluggish on the web today.

Alright. I sent a message to Pencil42 asking him.
Uh, my Trainz CDs are beat. I'm not sure they'll survive another DL. Ahhh! I guess I'll just hace to install a lot of turntables on my route. Plus, 638 MB will slow my computer. I guess I'll just make up excuses why my locomotive has the coupler up.

Thanks. Well, since I lost Trainz for a month last time since it wouldn't reinstall, I'll stick with my version. Thanks for answering my question though. I'm off to download a flat car that I can permantley leave on the front of the engine if it goes up.
There definitely was a problem with TRS2006 as it broke the uncouple message that was supposed to be sent out. SP1 fixed this. I'll have to down load and test the General out. When I merged Pencil42's coupler script into the loco script I sent Terry I didn't have a version of the loco with the front coupler animation so I couldn't test it out. I told Terry to do a thorough job of testing it.
The script definitely uses the uncouple message but it's also possible to poll the consist frequently to see if the coupler status has to change. I thought there was a section in there that did that. I've got SP1 installed but I can disable the uncouple messages in the script when I test it out.

Hello Bob, Yes I did test it out thouroughly. I never had a problem with it before or after you modified the script.
My testing was limited to copuling and uncoupling cars, I never tried to derail one or anything like that.
Let's just say that my testing was limited to "normal" operations and it worked fine.

Well? Did you like it? Did I do good?
Did I get pretty close to what would be considered "Russian Iron" on the boiler? I can darken it up for the next one if necessary.
Just wanted your opinion.
Terry
uploading as we speak
Did you ever upload the video?
Where can I find it?
Thanks!
Terry
He's a youtube friend of mine. He said he had problems. Type in keyword
Ronthecyborg
and you should find his work. I'll post a link

Apparently, the thing won't upload. This isn't the first time I've tried to make a video of your locomotive, tbryson2.
The first video got as far as the YouTube upload page. Never finished.
The second video (this one) didn't even make it past the compressing stage.
I'm beginning to think your General does not like being put on film.
:hehe:

I'll look at the "config.txt" file and see if there is a parameter that prevents videoing.
