Hello,

It is still displayed turntable (German: Drehscheibe - see red arrows) in the trackmonitor despite the loco was running to another track some time after leaving the turntable. Also there are no signals or milestones etc. displayed in the track monitor. It seems that OR handles the loco like it would be still on the turntable. Also no Speeds are displayed - see this screenshot:



Possibly not an only ORNYMG bug.

Greetings

Some questions and comments:
1) Does this occur to you constantly when exiting the turntable to that track?
2) Does this occur to you also exiting the turntable to other tracks?
3) Does this occur to you also in other routes?
I notice in the logfile a good amount of warnings related to the .tdb file: they might create malfunctions.

Hello Carlo,

thanks for your quick response, good to hear from you!

I have investigated it further and found that it indeed only affects the ORNYMG version (testet with ORNYMG Rev. 146).
The current OR test version U2023.09.23-0922 does not have the problem.

Yes

Yes. It also occurs with turntables on a completely different world file and no matter which track of the turntables I use as exit.

Yes. I was able to test it at least on a route with a vertical lift platform.

I guess you mean the many lines like this:

"Warning: Cannot parse the constant number 0.1 in D:\Spiele\MSTS\ROUTES\BStE_Hauptversion\BStE.tdb:line 121276"
"Warning: Cannot parse the constant number 0.01 in D:\Spiele\MSTS\ROUTES\BStE_Hauptversion\BStE.tdb:line 123178"

The numbers 0.1 or 0.01 are always - again and again - generated by the MSRE when saving the route and should be tolerated by OR instead of being displayed as a warning.
I have known these warnings in the OpenRailsLog.txt for years and consider it as an intolerance to the MSRE. Thats why I think it has nothing to do with the above problem.

One minor thing - in the OpenRailsLog it says "Version = ORNYMG-Rev. 140.5." although I am using the 146.

Just a quick note, I am using OR v146 and my ORLog shows version 146. Don't know why you would see 140.5?

[Csantucci]

Auto updates don't exist in ORNYMG. I confirm that when running ORNYMG 146 I see 146 in the logfile. I performed also a couple of tests and turntables seem to work correctly. Jacob, I suggest you to perform a fresh install of ORNYMG 146.

My mistake concerning the version number in the OpenRailsLog.txt: I didn't have the checkbox "Logging" checked - therefore it was a not current log file I had uploaded, sorry!

But the actual problem with the turntable remains for me here.

[Csantucci]

It would be nice if someone else could check whether turntables work (meaning that locomotives enter turntable, are rotated, exit turntable and exit also from turntable mode in the track monitor (f4)) on ORNYMG 146, as it occurs to me.

I ran a test using ORMG 146 and came up with this.
Moving the engine onto the turntable neither on screen or IP heads up displays show "turntable" until you start to rotate the turntable.

Once you start rotating the turntable both do.

When either end of the turntable track line up with a lead track the IP display shows normal track and the onscreen displays "turntable".

And the onscreen display doesn't ever clear

Cool picture, Randy!
Highly-artistic test report!

Thanks Weter,

I wanted to show what was happening in game.
