Time Events

The MSTS Activity Editor allows you to make your own activities, or missions, for the player to complete. This is also how you can get lots of other trains running while you drive yours!

Time Events

Post by LeeEAS »

I'm having problems with time events in a Activity I'm making;

All the other events work fine (Action, Location, etc) however if I place a time event it does not show up in the activity!

I created a time event to inform the driver he can now depart, I set it for 07:59:58, but at that time in the activity nothing pops up.

I tried changing the activation level to 1 for the event, but that didn't work. I've no idea what that is even for!

A Time Event is triggered not by the actual time but by the number of minutes in to an activity that you want the event to happen.

For example if you activity starts at 7:00am and you want a pop up message to appear at 7:30am then you set the time at 30 minutes.

The way you have set things up at the moment is that your message will pop up eventually but only after the activity has run for 7 hours, 59 minutes and 58 seconds :)

If you set it at that time, then it wont show till 7hrs 59mins 58secs later.
