There seems to be a number of TC's missing between the two sims

Man Picc is on 2008-2015 Era
Man North was on 2012-2018 era
Both running the 2015 timetable

Loader says it's up to date.

Yep, and it is already reported on Mantis under 30931. Apparently this issue has been fixed on north, but it has not yet been released.

Out of interest do we have a timeframe on the release of this fix?

I presume its not that simple? Hoping to run a decent size chain on the new sims thats all.


Thanks

I wouldn't like to promise something ahead of your first session on the 13th of January. Mr Pedrick is working hard in the background to reestablish the chaining in the earlier eras, as well as adding on the Ordsall chord, and making other associated changes to Manchester North, and sorting out the chaining for that as well.

We also want to ensure it's robustly tested before public release.

That said, we hope it won't be too much longer.

I'm just going to add to what Karl has put above.

On Manchester North, its not just the chaining to Piccadilly thats different (With the curve), but there has also been a small number of other layout changes to the left hand of Victoria Station, plus some changes of speed restrictions on some point work, plus some other changes.

I've also made some other changes to the sim, some of which the player will see, others, the player won't see. Remembering that Manchester North was my first sim, so I've learnt better ways to achieve the same thing.
