Loft placement issue

I have been having a few problems with lofts in the last few days. They work okay when they are offset on something, but when placed normally, they will not appear, only the red box marking the start and end of the loft appear. The track works okay when continuing on from existing track, but once again, will not work on its own. I have cleared the blueprint cache, and verified the game cache, but to no avail. Can someone please help, as it has called a halt to my routebuilding at the moment. :(

hi ,
i had that a few days ago , but it was resolved by closing and restarting the program .
Stil to much strange things happens in the editor ; its more than time they iron them out .
4 paralel tracks ; i add a trackpiece with a buffer; works on 3 of them but not on the fourth ; the buffer dont apear.
And what you said , i had that from continuing on from existing track .
And the SBHH when cutting the no more needed part from reconnected track/river.

If you're tracklaying with easements, sometimes the buffers don't appear until the curve is laid back to straight.

On the non- appearing lofts, check you've got the latest update and have cleared cache as the last update fixed the loft rendering bug.

It was not with easements , just straight track ; just the same as the other 3 tracks next to it ( where it worked ) .

The loft problem , that only the red outline appears , is not when using the offset tool ( slow redrawing in that case solved by the last update ) , but is when placing normally.
