This cp9001.ENG file is fine. I made mistake that console shows file path after loading finished, not before, so ENG which I need is one after cp9001.ENG. Probably it is in the same folder. If you don't know which is it, I will upload updated version.
Next eng in folder cp9001ai.eng attached

The drag bars HAVE to be used as neither the up/down arrows nor the page up/down keys do not cause the lists to scroll.

This is weird because on my system arrows and pgup/down works fine.

The rolling stock name displayed below the item in the Consist display is truncated to about 23 characters being cut off at both ends making the name unrecognizable. And for shorter items the names are run together and totally unreadable. See below:

Thanks. My app crashes because this:
-----
Coupling (
Type ( Automatic )
Spring (
Stiffness ( 1e6N/m 5e6N/m )
Damping ( 1e6N/m/s 1e6N/m/s )
Break ( 3.1e7N 3.1e7N )
r0 ( 2cm cm )
)
Velocity ( 0.18m/s )
)
-----
No number before cm. I think it is ENG bug, not my app?

I know. I need to think about different way of displaying names.

Good catch. Interesting that it hangs on something like that. But does not hang on ENGs with errors like file referenced by WagonShape file is not present, or MaxPower in kN not kW.

Another Question:

Quote

Graphic con view:
mouse - select
F - flip
Del - delete
Left/Right - move left/right


Del deletes last item in Consist. How to delete item in the middle? Selecting item then Del key does not work.

Observation: Editing consist then closing does not save CON file NOR is there a "Save? Yes/No" warning.

Questions: What is purpose of "Edit" on the Menu? Nothing happens when clicked.
Why is item display reverse of item in the consist? (Same question as post #36)

It is because msts file string parser is still function from my first version of TSRE engine from 2008 year and vulnerable to errors. ENG like most of file parsers is newer and more advanced.
I will make small update to this old function.

1. Select item on 3d consist view and press 'del' from keyboard.
or
2. Select item on consist units list and press 'delete' button.

It is not finished. My Route Editor had empty edit menu until 0.612 version :)

I dodn't noticed it before. It is because of default camera position.

Check if keys work in route editor. Maybe keys does not work at all in your Windows 10 ...
My app is compiled with QT 5.4 from 1.2015. It could not support windows 10.
Try compatibility mode with windows 7.

Disregard. What I was observing was a string of 5 of the same wagons. Selecting #F2 and clicking Del and #F5 disappeared. But what apparently happens is #F2 was deleted and all items renumbered resulting in F1-4. But a string of different wagons. i.e. Boxcar, Tanker, Hopper, Flat, Bulkhead numbered F1 to F5. Select Tanker the Del key and now string is Boxcar, Hopper, Flat, Bulkhead numbered F1 to F4. Original F2 the tanker is gone. When they are all the same Wagon the visual effect is the one at the end is getting deleted.

Some Engines are being listed by file name instead of the Name line. Yes they have a Name line. Sample attached.

Freight cars also.
