Thingley Junction "Route not available" whilst slot requested 28/10/2021 at 10:34 #142069

Consider this image:


I have 1L02 requesting a slot over the Melksham single line, which 6D01 has just come off.
4D02 is for Thingley Jn and should go first as I have a queue of traffic behind it including another train for the single line.

However, when attempting to set the route for 4D02, I am greeted with:


As I have control over the single line, surely I should be able to route 4D02 before 1L02, even if the slot is currently requested?
Currently it seems I have no option but to hold traffic on the Dn Trowbridge.

The manual states nothing about this restriction, if one does so exist.

Save file attached.

Replicated with minimal timetable, relevant prior save attached.
To replicate - wait for 1L02 to request slot and try to signal 4D02

This had been noticed before (Mantis 30618 refers), have reopened that as it was believed to be fixed.

Also see
https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Forum/ThreadView/50798?postId=127129
which suggests a timetable change as some of the extra trains are going the wrong way. Fixing that would take some of the load off the Melksham single.

The conditions for the route from Bradford Jn to set are too restrictive. Added to the ticket Bill re-opened. I don't have a time frame for a fix though.

Just wondering if this has been released yet?

7 months on I'd like to continue playing

Funnily enough I just realised the other day it was still in the tester area and prodded, so hopefully shortly.

Dismayed this still hasn't been released 10 months after the fix was implemented.

Surely, with the saves available this wouldn't take very long at all to test and release?

There are a lot more fixes than just this one, fixing one thing broke another - it rather unravelled.
Still being actively tested and fixed.

Thanks for the update, Bill, it seemed from the outside that this had been forgotten about.

It's not forgotten about it's just the testers are busy and when they do have the time they keep finding new problems, admittedly not all show-stoppers.
Then I have to find the time to investigate and so on.
Sometime this week I hope to once again put it out for testing but with the caveat that I'll only deal with show stoppers.
How long it takes then will really be up to the tester community and how busy/free they are and what they find.

As a bonus there's a heavily revised default timetable, and an entirely new one.

Just to update, I've put the latest and hopefully final iteration of Westbury out for testing.
If there are no show-stopping reports then hopefully that will be it.

Note that this is likely to be the last ever update to that Sim and it'll then be frozen "warts and all" as per some of the other freeware sims.
Notwithstanding that I have said that if I ever get the relevant data for Westbury box (Track circuit maps and locking tables etc) then I'd like to sort all that out as I did to the Reading panel part.

Should a Debug option be listed in the scenario selection? Just updated and shows all the scenarios including [Debug] Debug option.

There was some debate around this following the conversion of Euston to loader format, it's a core code rather than sim related feature. I can't find the thread about it just now.

Thread might've been the announcement of Euston's loader release: https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Forum/ThreadView/54061?postId=146930

Just be aware that it was put in purely to make the Yeovil area visible.No attempt was made to tie it in with all of the other scenario related features, so select it at at your own risk. I had understood the feature was licence level specific, so I guess that will be fixed in a future loader.

These have been renamed as something else; I forget what ("Detailed"??) and I'm at the wrong machine. There should be a tick-box to let you make them visible or invisible. But it looks like those changes haven't made it to a Loader release yet.

You need v5.21.1 or later for this.
