Greetings all. I am getting repetitive errors flagged which are adding a 5 point penalty (each time?)! I have observed the error regularly since the last sim update, mostly for traffic entering at Motherwell Dn Yd Dn Dep and Motherwell Up Loco Holding Sdgs/Up Yd. Screenshots and logs attached. 6V93 has just caused the error (and penalty) on/after entry call at Motherwell Up Loco Holding Sdgs/Up Yd.

Looks the same as this thread:

Something to do with Cove crossing in the 1980's era, not the train at Mossend.

Good eve Bill. Yes, I saw that thread, thank you, but I'm pretty sure that I hadn't seen the error until trains enter the sim and wondered if it was related to an inbound 'phone call followed by a train entering. I have had numerous class 1, 4 and 6 trains across Cove without incident, even after receiving calls from road traffic both wishing to cross and clear of Cove, both up and down. I shall continue the sim run but will note any further and play through again on the morrow if i find time and screenshot Cove around the error time as well.

It is the same internal error that was raised in the post the Bill has linked too and it was reported on the bug tracker as 29848.

From what I remember from my reproducing of the bug to then report it fully, it only occurs to a down train, Up trains do not cause the error to appear. It is caused by in the later eras Cove Crossing has an auto lower function for the CCTV crossing, in the earlier eras Cove is an AHB, but the auto lower for down trains appear to still activates. The error is then produced as the code tries to execute a command that is not there.

You will only get displayed the internal error message Once per session, all further occurrences are still reported and logged, but you won't see the error box again. When you restart a new sim, or you reopen a save of an earlier session, you will then receive the IE again the first time a down train approaches Cove AHB

LordSven, Thanks for uploading the log file, that is very helpful to us. Could I ask that when you put a screenshot up of an error message, please could you crop (or use Alt + Print Screen, that will print screen the active window only) to just the error message, I had to zoom my window to at least 400% zoom to be able to read what the IE message says. A save game is also much more helpful than a screenshot of the sim, as it allows us to explore whats going and see exactly what is happening. It also makes it easier for us to try a reproduce the issue.
