Compass Reorientation

sandpaper600 · Nov 24, 2020

Is there a way to reorient the compass in TRS19? When I imported my route from T:ANE, for some reason the compass now shows North as being West. It was built in T:ANE with the correct orientation.

Any fix for this?

Edit: This occurs in both surveyor and driver.

I just tried reorienting a 2009 route in T:ANE using the World Origin asset. It won't rotate. In fact, it doesn't replace the unmarked "world origin" in that route. Hope someone has the solution or can point us the right way.

:B~)

The world origin object really does nothing. I have a help section on this page at the bottom that explains further;

To rotate a map is tedious. Add some blank baseboards and use the copy and paste and start copying chunks and rotate before placing. I made a small route section and did this and released all 4 rotations. Lookup 'CDE Turn 90' in the DLC or your CM to see the 4 routes.

Ja, my observations match yours precisely. (I did remember from last time the altitude setting issue - despite increasing age - )

Why would porting a route from one build to another change the orientation?

Trainz does weird things. Always has.
