Hi!
So topic description says all, the compressor cant recharge the brake system. It has no sound neither effect on MainRes pressure.
Please look after it.

Greetings

Is this on all locomotives and do you happen to know the last version when it worked?

Edit: Does the log include any errors?

Are you referring to the air compressor sound? I was wondering if a certain sound was missing and it may be the air compressor sound.

I cant see any error messages in the log, neither missing sound files.
At the moment I have only steamlocos and the compressors are not work (none of them). I didn't do any modification in my files.

At the beginning the pressure is max, but when its getting lower the compressor dont want to start and refill. When I "get out of air" I can't release the breaks only when I press the button which re-inits the brakepipes.
This error came up some experimentals ago, tomorrow I look after it which was the last good one.

The air compressor sound is random so that is good. Whatever the issue is, it must be specific to a locomotive you are using.

I think the sound should work, if the program do the refilling.

Here is my code snipplet:
	AirBrakesAirCompressorPowerRating ( 1.18 )
	AirBrakesMainMinResAirPressure ( 56 )
	AirBrakesMainMaxAirPressure ( 116 )	
	AirBrakesMainResVolume ( 26.7 )
	AirBrakesAirCompressorWattage ( 15000 )
	AirBrakesCompressorRestartPressure ( 102 )
	AirBrakesAirUsedPerPoundsOfBrakePipePressure ( 1.44 )
	AirBrakesHasLowPressureTest ( 1 )
	AirBrakesIsCompressorElectricOrMechanical ( 0 )
This should be working, but...

I hope you will see something helpful.

Looks like it is an issue with the new power supply scripting, where the steam locomotives were not considered carefully. There is a code in MSTSLocomotive.Update function:
            if (MainResPressurePSI < CompressorRestartPressurePSI && AuxPowerOn && !CompressorIsOn)
                SignalEvent(Event.CompressorOn);

where AuxPowerOn will never be true for steam locomotives. :) :D
