Jim - you mean you have had the read-only thing happen with no merges having been made? And then you can save the same map a couple more times before the problem appears again? Haven't seen that one yet. On the merged maps I'm talking about, the problem is there every time I make a change. Well, one of them does allow me to make one small change at a time, like inserting a trackmark, after which it will save normally. But any larger change or more than one change, and I have to save with a new name.
On those same and some other maps, in setting up a session, I have to make fairly small set-up rounds with the interactive industries. If I do too much at a time, Surveyor says I have made a map change. If I set up just one or two industries at a time and don't spot any rolling stock, these changes are recognized as session changes.
And, jytte, you have made many merges with practically bare boards, with no problem. Others report track interruption at interactive industries after merging maps.
Sounds like merge is a flakey operation that is influenced by map content, which results in intermittent and unpredictable results.
