Activity Creation problems :(

Firstly forgive me for sounding stupid... but I'm only just getting to grips with MSTS!! I have Northern Routes installed and I wish to create a new activity from carlisle to settle.. a route which isn't included on the Northern Routes package (only Cotehill to Appleby)...
So far... i have created a PATH, which looks ok... I've verified the path... added traffic patterns for that route... placed a consist on the route, marking the stations to call at... stated the dep time and recalculated the timings... computed and saved the activity... but then I get a message something like ... "Activity not complete... the activity will not be playable"... can anyone shed any light on what I am forgetting to do..

You need to put somthing in the Trainorder box and the other box. They are located under the name of the activity in the topright box of the AE. Just put a couple of spaces. It just needs something there

Yep, you have to fill in the activity briefing and activity description.

It is a good idea to type something sensible in here, the description appears when you are browsing the activites in MSTS, the briefing appears when you start the activity itself.
