Have you tried Train Table Mode with Use All Trains ? You understand any new loco will not show up in a map unless you do the aforementioned or add it to the RRT_Trains_<scenarioname>.xml file right?

Possible Solution To Vista Gaming Problems

Although it's not correcting the REAL problem it does cause a lower virtual address space footprint which should help gamers crash less.

The B-Unit is technically a loco but we use the Tender Mod to be able to have dual locos. Basically we put Tender entries in the Global RRT_TrainCars.xml file referencing loco models. Then we put new loco entries in the RRT_Trains.xml file that have a Tender reference to the desired loco-tender in t...

Technically I don't think there's anything "wrong" with it but it would be nice to have free flight available while the game is running not just while Paused. Also I'd like to be able to zoom all the way in to first person view (in the cab). as well as zoom out farther during play.

I stand corrected (by myself) all locos will not show up when in Train Table mode without XML modification.

Locomotives are listed in the Global RRT_Trains.xml file. If using an Installer for an engine then it should put the appropriate info into the XML file. Then all you have to do is place a reference to the engine in the desired RRT_Trains_<scenarioname>.xml file and it should show up when the correct...

Well, each Scenario has a set of XML files that tell SMR what resources (including locos) to use during play. So in order to see different content (in this case locos) you would have to change those files (in this case the RRT_Trains_<scenarioname>.xml file. I think you can choose Train Table mode j...

Those are usually RANDOMEVENT crashes. Enable logging and after the next crash check the bottom of the NetLog.log file. RANDOMEVENTs are things in the RRT_Events.xml file and if your map does not contain one of the Goods mentioned in the Events file then when the game tries to create an event for th...

If it has neither Supply nor Demand then the only way would be to build an industry there. I find this to be a neat twist in a Scenario.

You're right, I delete the final ">" and the XML Tools plugin did not catch it. I'll see if I can notify the author of the plugin. Technically this is not a Notepad++ error but rather a plugin issue.

I am enjoying Mysterious Island very much but I had to move the northern fishery inland a little as the Depot circle was mostly in water. Otherwise I like the map very much and the volcano is excellent.
