I'm adapting the narrow gauge TANE version of timber ridge line to standard gauge in 2019 and some of the inexplicable obstacles made by NV3 just make me want to spit. I attempted to use items from the DLS for the route, but for some strange reason the steelworks, which was built in in TANE ,now can only be used if you install the ECML route in 2019 , this is many hundreds of megabytes worth of route for two small assets. exporting as a cdp from TANE into 2019 results in the assets being labeled as faulty.
I've always found that computer techs fall down in considering the impact of their actions on their customers and this seems yet another example of not thinking about ease of use, in this case its available, ( although how one is supposed to know where it is would be beyond most users, i had to ask another user with Timber ridge installed in 2019 if he knew how to obtain it ) )but only if you fill up your hard drive with a route that you might never ever use. I think I'll probably just change the industry in this case, but it is very annoying to have to do so as the item was there to act as a place for coal to be consumed from mines in other areas. How many other examples of this lack of foresight are there which on their own seem minor, but in practice might actually really make route makers lives even more of a hassle then they are already ?
