Will be uploaded before the end of the day :)
That's Fantastic!

Many thanks Danny :D

Just an addendum to this; you can alter track directionality in the scenario editor the same way, so if you find a particular section won't allow for correct pathing it can be altered for that scenario only, which can be useful to avoid creating inadvertent conflicts in other scenarios.

That fixed it Danny. Thankyou.

Presumably that also means that on South London Network we would not be able to path from the Selhurst depot sidings into Norwood Junction P4, P5 or P6.

That's a great tip Steve. However, having used the spacebar to select the directionality display, how does one the edit the attributes of the track? I tried double clicking on it to no avail?

Cheers,

Too whom it may concern.
I could'nt resist and got it in the sale and the workshop.
Brilliant
Bogs Dollocks., I feel that thanks to this I have come home and needn't play on distant (very good) tracks anymore.
The names and places, old stomping grounds, I recognise and adds to the fun.
Can't see the join either !
Thank you everyone concerned.
(I might even extend it to Richmond where I live)
How about Waterloo someone ?
Cheers John

I've recently picked up South London (in the sale) and subscribed to this merged route.
One question, (maybe silly :oops: ), but are there any Workshop scenarios (or others) available for the merged route? I've done a search, but the merged route doesn't list in the search catagories, however I can see some South London scenarios which may be for the merged one, but I'm not very familiar with London's rail lines.

I can run the quick drives though, thanks for making these available.

Unfortunately there can't be any scenarios for the route on workshop at the moment, I have to make the route "Final" but at the moment due to a bug I've been unable too (but I'm sure people can upload scenarios to here or other places though if they wanted to of course :) ) . I have passed on this however and hope that the bug will be fixed in the future but thanks for the comments :)

Hi Danny. Many thanks for this. Until now I haven't visited the steam workshop so this is the first time for me. I can see the route listed but no scenarios as yet. I wanted to create a simple Redhill to Reigate scenario but when you start the process of creating the scenario TS15 only lists the stations on the original SLN not L2B stations. Can someone let me know how I get to start the process of scenario creation from Redhill?

Thanks in advance
Steve

If you want to quickly teleport to somewhere whilst in the editor map just ctrl+click on an area on the map and that'll set your destination coordinates to that point, then click the go to arrow and voila, you're at Redhill :)

A minor thing from me which personally I managed to fix on my own version but if I bring it to Danny's attention hopefully he can fix it so Steam doesn't keep "updating" my fix away! :lol:

I've tried making some scenarios representing the 171 service from Uckfield and have stumbled on a few minor problems between Sandersted and South Croydon;

1. There is an advanced speed warning board at Sandersted heading up road which technically needs an AWS ramp.
2. There is no advanced warning board for the 20mph speed limit over the junction at South Croydon.
3. There is a TPWS loop near the 40mph board associated with signal T150 for some reason a fair distance away from the signal. Fine if that signal is yellow or green, if red it gives you a sudden stop!

Otherwise, best, thing, ever.
If only all problems on the big railway could simply be TAB'd past...

These have now been fixed :) (they were fairly simple - i guess in a way a good way that I can't finalise the route yet)

Is there any way to change the side a service opens it's doors on the Up Slow at Norwood Junction? The original London to Brighton came with an incorrectly labelled P2 (in reality P1) and when you try to stop a service, the doors open on the right hand side instead of the left.

Unfortunately not that I can see, its more of how the train selects the platform (so down to the core software), there isn't much that I can do without deleting the invisible platform loft unfortunately for platform 2/3. (as for the numbering its something that I can't change at the moment but technically it isn't wrong because it is both platform 1 and 2 ;) - even though in real life only platform 1 is used )

Edit - Just in case i'm not changing the Norwood Junction P2 to P1 only because people who have made scenarios for it so far (some have) and wouldn't want to change too much track related things :)
