Disappearing Assets

Post by RCH37401 »

Hi all

During a session of route building this afternoon, I came across a bug which I had once discovered whilst doing my North Staffs Route.

As I place assets in World Editor, they show up and I save and close RailWorks.

When I load my route in any scenario type, I find that some of the assets are missing.

I enter World Editor and hover the mouse over the area of the missing asset, and all of a sudden, it briefly shows up.

To make the assets reappear, I place an asset down on the tile which has missing assets, and they render again.

Yet when I close the World Editor and go back to normal play, they once again disappear!

Has anyone else had this problem, and also, is there a solution?

I am finding it frustrated as I am detailing some areas on my route with general clutter and realistic items, but can't show these with screenshots.

Many thanks in advance

Hi

I can only think that you have altered the scenery visibility slider either in the main options or in the editor mode in the bottom left flyout window. If these are set at less then 10 then you mighty get the invisibility cloak effect you describe.
