Doors wont open

Post by spoonmcduff »

Ive just done a scenario for the South Devon Banks V14 route.Its from Exeter-Kingswear using the new IHH class 52 pack with DT mk1's.In the testing of the route when it stops at Torquay,the doors wont open on the mk1's.Ive tried changing where I stop in the station but they remain closed.Everything else works fine.
Any suggestions?
Cheers
Gareth

Do other rolling stock types work okay?

Two possible problems:

The MK1s do not support door animation. Is possible, but unlikely.
The marker has the wrong type. It should be a platform marker, doors will not open if a destination marker is used.
Note also that there is a bug with the platform markers. They do not support door opening animation if they are created as scenario specific markers.

I've also discovered that if you make the lineage-object for the people on the marker too short on a platform (example; from Lineage Object Tools --> Platforms --> Platform Inv 5M L 00's), or if the Platform Marker is too short, then the train doors may not open. So be sure that your platform-people lineage-object and your platform-marker is of a good length. Also don't have the platform-people lineage-object "broken" in short segments - try to have one longer smooth segment rather than a series of short ones strung together.

A good way to help line-up a platform-people lineage-object with the track next to it is to use the offset tool, then you can click on the new lineage-object created and adjust position and height accordingly. I find when in the world-editor that the V, B (up and down), C, N (forward and back relative to camera view), F and G (rotate left and right) keys are quite useful in helping to precisely line up lineage-objects, or objects in general, to the position you want .
