"Click to occupy tracks" loader debug option 11/11/2014 at 00:55 #65554

I might have missed some documentation somewhere (I did search). Is it just me, or does this option appear not to work? I only ask because it would be interesting to mess around in some sims by simulating unusual movements "by hand" to see how the sim copes with it. Is this broken at the moment or am I just doing it wrong?

I've tried enabling it and restarting SimSig, or enabling it and using it in the same session, but clicking on the track circuits themselves seems to have no effect.

You just tick it, close the debug pane, and then it should work - clicking on a track circuit occupies it, then clicking again frees it (with the usual delay). It certainly works for me, and I don't believe it requires a special licence.

Or are you referring to the option under the f3 menu? If so then I think that should not be visible with a "user" license. Users can use the f11 options to achieve the same effect.

I've just tried on Aston, and it's not working for me.

Peter, it shows for me as well although it has no effect, and I hold user licenses only.
Sorry guys, I am in the business of making people wait!

I've reported it as either it should work or it should be hidden, as it's labelled "debug" the latter seems more correct.

I've just realized you're talking about something on F3, not something on the "D" debug panel.

That option (and the one below it) is ignored if you don't have a Tester's licence.

Ah, OK, that makes sense. I indeed don't have a tester's licence.
