Using the Home Screen Whenever I Look out the Engineer Side Window Back Along my Train I Only see the First 15 or so Cars in the Consist.
The Number 2 View from the Front only lets me see the First 15 or so Cars in the Consist.
Also the Number 3 View Forward Only Shows the 15 Cars at the End of the Train. This is Either on a Curve or a Straight Section.
I Have a Variety of Routes and So Far it Happens on All of them.
There is no Mention of it in the Log.
Thankyou,
DaveKfromUP

A more extended view of the train either to the front or the rear would be desirable.

Can you post a screen shot of what you're seeing? Is the rest of the train missing or is it obscured by fog or?

You are aware you can scroll up and down the whole train length when using the 2,3 and 4 key views to lock onto any part of the train? Or do you mean something completely different ?

Thanks

I don't understand the question. In my experience, when I look back on the train out of the window, and there's a suitable curve, I can see all the way to the back of the train.

That's Just it, When I'm on a Long Curve I can see Part of my Train but not all the way to the Last Car. Maybe the First 15 Cars AND That's it. Even if the Train is only 20 Cars Long I Won't be Able to See All of the Train.
I Reset my Distance Setting to 2000m and I Now Can See More Cars than I did so I May Have to Work on that Setting.

Dave
A screenshot would most definitely help in identifying the cause of your problem. The log file would also be of help.
