Track Layout from Map does not Disappear after I leave the Map View

[torino72]

In TRS19 (the North American version) I'm having this problem when I go to the Map and return to the session.

See the photo at the link below. Upon returning from the Map view I still have that track displayed.

This occurs when I'm using the camera view (the 3 key), then press M for map, and then press M again to return to the session. I do not have this problem if using the 1, 2, or 4 key. It occurs on each of my sessions. I have done the database repairs and that did not help.

I am also having a problem when I use the Drive To function and tell it to go to a location (station, etc.). It takes 2 to 4 attempts before the command is recognizerd and the loco starts to move.

What build number are you using?

This (the map problem) was reported as a bug in pre-SP1 builds and then as "fixed" in SP1.

I'm having the same problem, but I have build 105096.

 

[torino72]

I have 105096 as well.

It definitely happens in Build 105096. Supposedly fixed, but no details of which version.

I am not seeing it in build 105100 nor in my copy of build 105096.

Are there any special circumstances under which this occurs? I have toggled in and out of the Map view in 105096 numerous times, set all the map display options on and then off without the problem appearing.

The only time I see it is when I go to Map view after having pressed the #3 key (Camera View) & then exit the Map view. It disappears if I press the 1,2, or 4 key but is still there if I press the #3 key again. It remains there until I exit the session and restart it. As long as I go to Map view from the 1, 2, or 4 key setting everything is OK.

OK. I have just conducted some tests with both build 105100 and build 105096 and I cannot reproduce this.

I started each test in Driver mode and in Cab view (#1) with a stationary consist as the focus driver. I switched in and out of Map view (M).
Repeated in Chase view (#2), Lineside view (#3) and Free roam view (#4).

I then repeated the above steps with a moving consist.

The result was the same in all cases - the Map view disappeared on returning to the 3D world view with no residual map present.

So something else must be at work here.

This happened to me for the first time yesterday in TRS 2019 build 105096 UK version.

Only happened with Camera 3 but was impossible to get rid of without closing down and restarting the session.

I can’t help with a solution but can confirm the persistence of the problem.

I thought it was a feature not a bug. Build 105096

Shhh. All they will all want it

 

[SailorDan]

I thought it was a feature not a bug.

And, contrary to the original reply, it does follow the position of the consist.

Confirming reproducible in Build 105096 IF trackside cameras have been placed in the route.
Does not show in Driver mode of sessions from routes where trackside cameras have not been deployed.
(Like normhart opined above; Thought this was a cool FEATURE - and not necessarily a BUG. :wave: )

Also confirming toggling from Camera View 3 to Map to any other view key (1,2, or 4) disengages the cool moving map overlay.

Just tried that on both builds 105100 and 105096 and I still cannot reproduce it. I placed a trackside camera and repeated my tests from post #8 above.

pware - try this:
1. Open up Kickstarter 2 session '01 Highland Limited' in Driver mode. Start the loco moving after the initial camera pan ceases.
2. Hit the '3' key to see the loco in Trackside View. (Camera is over the yard)
3. Hit the 'M' key to go to the Map View.
4. Hit the 'M' key again to toggle the map back to trackside view again...
and Voila! You should see the track schematic and consist icon moving to follow the locomotive superimposed on the scene!

(Build 105096)
Can you confirm? Many thanks!
Here's what I see...

Can you confirm? Many thanks!

Voila - yes I can now see it but only in build 105096 and NOT build 105100.

So what is different between Kickstarter Country 2 (Highland Limited) and my modest route/session? ... and between builds 105096 and 105100?

Same here with build 105096
