Is there a maximum amount of time (TIM=) that is valid when defining rules such as DepAfterArr? It seems to reject anything over 99 minutes as an invalid number. I'm trying to simulate an CE train stopping in a possession for several hours.

Can't answer the question but sometimes you can find out by writing a test timetable in the sim and convert it and see how the data is represented. I think you need to use an older .exe Sim for the tt creation.

You can use HH:MM format times for the TIM= field. I have just done a test conversion for 240 minutes and the text file showed: TIM=04:00;
Good to see someone else is still using convdata! ;)

Ah, I didn't know you could use HH:MM! Thanks, that certainly helps. I can now have an Engineers train sit in a possession for hours.

No problem. Sounds like it’ll be an interesting timetable! B)
