Do I Rebuild Track Database pre- or post-adding Car Spawners

I have learnt the hard way that you do not signal a layout and then run Rebuild Track Database. I have been told that you should do this after adding all track and road sections and then never again.

Question: Knowing that doing an RTD will sever all signal connections to track, does it also sever all carspawning connections to road sections??

I do not want to learn THIS the hard way.

So, do I do my last RTD before of after adding carspawners????

Not necessarily, rebuilding the track database will usually sever a few of the links off signals such as feathers and bracket signals.

Do re-build track database, before you place Carspawners.

They tend to corrupt RDB and TDB.
