I just posted a question about fonts in the discussion forum and I recalled an issue I noticed some times ago.

In MSTS we could reopen the info windows that appeared during activities, with advices and/or warnings regarding the conduction, so we can re-read the instructions if needed.
There's not the same option in OR that I can find, but we can just restart the activity keeping the window open.

So far so good....but no other subsequent window will appear at all until we keep the previous open, not even the "end activity" annunce.
Am I missing something?

Thanks.


Ciao, Luca

I have noticed something like this also, but have not spent anytime trying to duplicate it or track it down.
If you use the ORTSContinue parameter for activity messages in the activity file this is what happens.
If you read the message, pause and then resume with the message on screen the next message will not appear when scheduled. What does happen is that first message still being displayed disappears and the next message never shows up.

Ok, so it's not me only.....
I think I'll send a bug report or a request then.
Thank you :)
