Build 2546: I went to do a run and then save to get a copy of the OR Log for my last post about "Unexpected Routes" and I got this:

And so where are the missing articulated cars?

On final approach to LAX Runway 27 Left!

Here's that log again:

OBTW, runs as a connected train just with gaps. And another OBTW runs as a grounded full train under Build 2460 so I don't think it is the cars, rather the way this version (2546) handles them. Off to load the new Build from today.... ;)

Is this a freeware item and if so where can I download it? If it is payware, is it possible for you to show the contents of the matrices section in the shape file?

Sure!

matrices ( 4
matrix Main_Body ( 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 )
matrix Bogie2 ( 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -0.0057912 0.47305 -6.82295 )
matrix Wheels21 ( 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0.00243842 0.00701043 -1.33376 )
matrix Wheels22 ( 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0.00243842 0.00701043 1.32105 )
)
Each articulated chair car is joined by a diaphragm.wag and interestingly enough it is only the rear car section that is flying away. Yes, it's payware. :pleasantry:

I uploaded a test fix for you to try out. The runactivity.exe is based on V2556.

Not sure if this has any bearing, but I think it has to do with how ORTS identifies this matrix:


matrix Main_Body ( 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 )

Didn't I read somewhere that ORTS only detects rollingstock with Main ( *** ) in the name? Maybe further material for me to test on the end-user side of things...
