As mentioned in another post, I have just given the West Hampstead demo a go.

With the plethora of eras in this sim I was just wondering if it would make sense to tweak the loader so that you choose the TT before selecting the era as until I'd seen the notes accompanying the TT I didn't know which era to select.

Yes, I know it was possible to guess from the title of the TT and you can move back through the loader but I admit I'm too lazy.

That would make sense - especially as the old EXE sims used to do it in that order (I think).

The .exe sims let you select the options in any order.

Yes, but Geoff is shying way from .exe simulations, the loader is the way forward, and it's no use dwelling on the past, as more sims will eventuality be transferred to the loader format.

I don't think Forest Pines was inferring we should return to .exe sims, more pointing out that you could previously select things in any order that you wished.

Indeed; it was just a correction to the post prior to mine.

I was under the impression that the loader lets you effectively do the same by using the back and next buttons, but I haven't played around to see if I'm right.

Edit: Yes, I was right! If you get as far as selecting a timetable and realise you've picked the wrong layout, you can always go back and change it.
