ACR Adriana County Railroad Named Route Markers & a big mistake

Unread postby ironcat60 » Sun Aug 19, 2018 8:11 pm

Howdy Folks!

Well I finally figured out how to make Named Route Markers and place them on a route that is based on a template and already has Named Route Markers that do not pertain to any destinations on the constructed route.

This is for the stand alone copy of the ACR Adriana County Railroad route by M. Howarth available on Railworks America.

These Route Markers WILL NOT WORK on the Adriana County available on Steam Workshop. Tried to make a seperate copy for that route but with M. Howart's route also added to the Marias Pass Route Marker folder it did not work. As I normally use M.Howarts and not the original by LtBligh I tried to solve the problem but then saw no need to pursue the matter any further.

This adds the various destinations to the Navigation Flyout that allows you to pick a name and "jump" there immediately.

Just use the Utilities Manager to place the rwp file to it's proper place.

However there was a big mistake. I released the initial version while I was organized like a bag of rocks and posted the wrong files, not a rwp, and a incomplete set of instructions in the Read Me file.

if you have the earlier version of this release then use these instructions. And I apologize for making it harder than it should be. A big thank you to community member Wopflyer for contacting me, which made me review my files and discover the mistake.

Navigate to your Assets folder, RSC, MariasPass, RouteMarkers, and place them in there. Now it works in the route ACR Adriana County Railroad from RailWorks America, but not in the Steam Work Shop route. Still gotta figure that one out.

In the Navigation Flyout it lists the ACR Adriana County Railroad title first and below that the named destinations. Marias Pass is listed below that as well. As Marias Pass was the template used to create the route the Named Route Markers have to share the same folder so the route reads one then the other.

Scenario construction should be much easier as you are able to move quickly and directly among destinations while placing rail cars and consists for other traffic.
