UMR 2011 Summer Signalling Problem

[larsmars223]

Whenever I run the UMR 2011 Summer route, I always seem to get restricted indications for mainline signals, which messes up the AI. These red indications may change for a split second to green, but always revert back. Is there any possible way to fix this without doing any major surveyor work?

Funny you should mention that - I'm working on that problem right now. It seems that TS12 handles the signals a lot more literally than earlier versions, so I'm finding a lot of my signals were placed incorrectly. It's a pretty big job but I'm making progress on it. I hope to have the 2012 version out over the next week or two.

Hope that answers your question.

It is really weird. It happens in TS12, TRS2010 and the version i am presently using, TRS2009.

Well, it is indeed strange. Anyway, I'm having pretty good luck cleaning things up - it took a while to figure out which signals allowed an all clear vs a caution signal, and in which situations.

So, basically I'm re-signalling the entire route, and hopefully this should fix the problems you've mentioned.

There's also a problem with PALMER station. All consists derail there.

I have the problem with signalling in UMR2011-Megamerge-Summer route and Travis Daily Coal Session 2 session (I'm using TS2010). When I reached MID-GRADE, I have to stop on red, but nothing's happened. I noticed AI driver Tom is blocked at Eso Flats and couldn't to do command "Go to ESO FLAT YARD NORTH ESO FLAT INDUSTRY" and Amtrak AI driver Nick is blocked to do command "Go to VIA MARK AMTRAK". This causes I can't pass maintenance car (changing to left rail). Where is the problem? Did I make something wrong? May I expect any similar problem in other sessions?

I'm using TS2010

I say start with registering that one; your account only shows 2004 .

As you are resignalling it anyway may I suggest placing yellow directional trackmarks on the mainlines to keep the AI drivers on the right side. It would also help prevent head on's. And I believe Neilsmith is already aware of Palmer in another thread.

The answer is simple - I registered TS2010 under my real name So I have other ID for it.

I tried Travis Coal Daily Session 1, 2 and 3. Number 1 is almost unpossible to ride - many red light without change, especially before coming to bigger stations. Number 2 - I wrote about it. Number 3 is possible for ride, there is only one bug there - red signal lights when I'm comming to final station Travis, although previous train Amtrak got green and passed the station.
