Hello,

In the .trk file find the RouteStart line and change its parameters.

The first and second ones are Tile X and Tile Z values. The third and fourth ones are for camera position, if you leave them as zero you will start at the center of the selected tile.

For example:

RouteStart ( -6244 14412 0 0 )

Cheers,

Alternatively, when the route has finished loading in the Route Editor, press Home and enter the compass co-ordinates of where you want to start working in the route !

I am working on a number of routes at the same time and find it the easiest to make a note of the co-ordinates of a route I have been working on last, I can get back to instantly once the route has loaded in the Route Editor, hopefully without getting a "Send......" :wink:, by simply jumping to them with the RE's HOME key function.

Working on my GOLD-SPIKE route in various locations I am using a print-out of them marked on the route's Activity Editor's tracks layout in addition to the last worked on co-ords ! :wink:
