Custom Route - Custom Route Markers Issue

Unread postby PullmanCar » Thu Feb 02, 2023 3:00 pm

As many of you may have seen on here, I have been building routes around Kalamazoo. I have custom route markers along the route that work fine. I recently cloned the route so a friend could make alterations. However I cannot get the route markers to show up in the clone. I tried doing everything the same, and initially the base route (N-Line and Maine Maritime) markers would show up, after I attempted to get my markers to show up, now no markers show in the clone, and the original route has the markers show twice.

Might anyone have any suggestions?
I have my own markers set in my own provider folder, and have them duplicated in the G-Trax>MaineMaritime folder, in attempts to get it to work (and presumably why markers are showing up twice in the original route now).

Thank you.

Okay, I'm going to take a swing at this one from one of my own experiences. I believe you are going to have to recreate the route markers for the clone route. I know that sounds like a 'duh' comment but I tried to use the same route markers for two identical routes and it didn't work. I had to recreate them for the second route from what I remember.

I am afraid I do not quite understand? The route uses all the same assets. I do not recollect placing them in Train Sim, but it is possible that I did. I have placed markers for consist spawn points, platforms, sidings, and so forth, but do not remember placing the route markers that way, but rather via .dcsv and blueprint editor.

I could be recalling incorrectly.

Misunderstood the type of route markers. I create route markers using Google Earth and TS-Tools that I place in my Assets folder under the route that I am working on. We're each talking about two different things, my apologies.

I think Pullman Car is referring to Track Markers e.g. siding, destination, portal etc.

Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.

It was route markers such as spawn points. Track markers I am quite familiarwith. I have no idea why, but the problem suddenly fixed itself yesterday afternoon. Hopefully it does not return.

Thank you both, hopefully the problem will not return.
