Selecting Player Service Cars

[jdilworth]

Hey gang,

When using the activity editor, is there a way to select cars in the player's service to drop at a location? At the moment, I only see a way to select static cars in the activity to drop at specific locations.

Cheers,
Jason

That is a good question. I have to check this.

Thanks Piotr,

I also noticed that when you select to pick up cars at a location it doesn't always show that location in the Work Order screen when running the activity.

Cheers,

It is possible to choose player train cars for drop in MSTS?

[jdilworth]

Yes, you can. If you build a consist with engines and cars, you can select cars in your train to drop at specific locations. I tried sneaking a way to do it in TSRE by having TSRE "run" the activity, and tried selecting the cars in my train, but it didn't work. lol

Yes, it won't work because I didn't know that it is allowed by MSTS. I will look at it later.
If you agree, then I will move this topic to feature requests or bugs.

Sure, that is fine by me. I will mention again, that when setting up pick ups, the siding/track name doesn't show in the work order. It does when establishing drop offs though.

Cheers,
Jason
