Having some issues

[alex17595]

Hi all, I'm having a few issues.

All my tracks have completely gone. I'm adding third rail to a route and suddenly won't appear anymore. There's just random bit of third rail everywhere now (see attached picture)

Also how to you make a line reversible? I keep getting error messages on a scenario where it says there is incorrect direction and incorrect electrification in the starting area.

Uh oh, I've had this problem myself amd can't seem to remember what caused it. Just that restoring from a backup of the route fixed it.

As for the changing the track direction and electrification properties, pressing space will cycle through the different information overlays. One of these will show you the direction of running, which can be modified by selecting the section of track and changing its properties using the right-hand flyout menu. It's also how you change the electrification settings too.

Heres the route on steam if anyone wants a go: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=766112152

It seems very strange, I can't run the route out of Build mode or it just crashes. I have verified the cache as well. Other routes work fine.



I fixed it by using the version off steam, but now its happened again!

Sounds like the tracks.bin file has become corrupted - check your railworks directory, navigate to the route folder, if the tracks.bin shows as 0kb then that's most likely the cause - simply copy and paste the same file from a backup (assuming you have a backup file on your PC).

I have found a work around by having to redownload it from the workshop over and over!
It seems to happen when I have the track set to show if they are electrified and then the game crashes and it will not start again correctly.
