Hi,

Since the recent loader update I've noted in both North Wales and Motherwell, that interposing whilst paused doesn't cause the TD to be drawn until either you unpause, or do a Save As. It's a bit offputting especially when you're starting the sim. Could a screen repaint be added for this case?

Thanks
Jamie

Edgemaster and myself can't reproduce this.

Is there a specific berth, or berths that cause it? What loader are you using?

MS332 Bellshill on the Mossend Panel (0D12 on the midnight 2009 TT), and the two approach berths from Saltney Jn Dn on the NWC Rockcliffe Hall panel (5F02 in Project X) were the ones that didn't redraw until ^S.

My guess would be that the berth displayed on screen is a que berth, so would only be refreshed with the sim running

Yep, the NWC ones appear to be queue berths.

Queue berths pick up the first (or Nth) entry of a list of other berths, in this case, it's all the hidden berths for the approaching trains. They only update as a result of a sim timestep, even if interposing manually into them.

The NWC ones can be manually interposed. This is what I had done, and then saved the sim without unpausing, which caused both berths to be populated.

Since my original post, I have been informed that it is currently not possible to prevent manual interposing on queue berths, hence why these approach berths are interposable.

There have been no changes to berth queue logic in the last few loader updates.
