Hello,

today I ran into a very strange wheel slip problem.
The power consists of a A-B-B-A consist of E8 engines (originally from 3D trains). Both A's and both B's use the same *.eng file.
Yet units 3 and 4 slip if throttle is increased over 50% - units 1 and 2 do not slip.
If I disconnect units 3 and 4, I can throttle up units 1 and 2 to full 100% without any problem, despite that these now must pull a much heavier train with much less power.

Somehow this does not feel right.
The screen-shot show the power hud.

Can anyone shed some light on this?
Version equals 2413 (not quite, but that's not relevant to this problem).

Rob Roeterdink

:pleasantry: - my mistake.
This is due to the 'mass' load problem. Now I really though the version I used was uploaded after those corrections, but apparantly not :) :blush: .

I was going to say that engine two or three has a really bad oil leak.

Hi Rob,
do you have a link to the model? I'd like to try it.
Did you try to disable the advanced adhesion model?

Thanks,
Matej

EDIT: If you have v2395 or lower, I would say that it is a bug in the Copy method fixed in v2396.

Actually, I run a 'derived' copy of OR, because I have some experimental changes in train and signal control. I knew about the copy problem but thought my copy was derived from a later version. But I was wrong ....
Made a new copy and all is working correct now, thanks.

Just a side note : the problem with failure to restore a saved setting when that save contains a train with automatic gear still persists.
