Log entry: Warning: sigscr-file line 9371 : Unknown function call : NEXT_BLOCK_STATE ()
Code: if (!enabled || block_state() !=# BLOCK_CLEAR && block_state() !=# BLOCK_OCCUPIED && (next_block_state () ==# BLOCK_CLEAR) )

Log entry: Warning: Ignored duplicate SignalType script REPETITOR_S.INTRARE/PARCURS/IESIRE/RAMIFICATIE in F:\Dropbox\TrainSim\Romania\ROUTES\Oravita-Anina\sigscr.dat:line 9884
What do i do here, simply delete the mentioned script?

Log entry: Warning: Assumed unknown gear box engine braking type direct_drive in F:\Dropbox\TrainSim\Romania\trains\trainset\KEOLIS_Caravellle\XBD4750.eng:line 422
What would i change it to?

And also many of the old rolling stock i use have absolutely no brakes at all, i assume that is due to differences between OR and MSTS. What parameters do i edit to strengthen the brakes?

Hi Tor,

Starting from the top:-

The sigscr.dat has some mistakes, where did that file originate from?

The gear box warning is due to not being defined correctly.

No brakes at all, please attach 2 of the eng files here for me to look at?

Next time when asking for help, please attach the log file.

Thank you sir, attached you find 2 Eng files that have the problem in question, i experience this same problem also with a lot of older rolling stock in general.
They do stop in the end but it takes forever, for instance the LDE-0168 single loco takes 3 - 500 meters to stop going 50 km/h and the brakes set to emergency.
Sigscr file, it is from the Oravita-Anina Romanian Route.
I will make sure to post the log file next time, thank you again.

Attached File(s)

Hi Tor,

69-0003

My figures:-

MaxBrakeForce( 192kN )
TripleValveRatio( 2.5 )
MaxReleaseRate( 50 )
MaxApplicationRate( 50 )
MaxAuxilaryChargingRate( 20 )
Sanding ( 25 km/h )
EngineBrakesControllerMaxApplicationRate( 50 )
EngineBrakesControllerMaxReleaseRate( 50 )
EngineBrakesControllerMinSystemPressure( 15 )
TrainBrakesControllerMinSystemPressure( 15 )
DieselEngineSpeedOfMaxTractiveEffort( 10 )


CFR_LDE-0168

MaxBrakeForce( 234kN )
TripleValveRatio( 2.5 )
MaxReleaseRate( 50 )
MaxApplicationRate( 50 )
MaxAuxilaryChargingRate( 20 )
Sanding ( 25 km/h )
RunUpTimeToMaxForce ( 10.0 )
EngineBrakesControllerMaxApplicationRate( 50 )
EngineBrakesControllerMaxReleaseRate( 50 )
EngineBrakesControllerMinSystemPressure( 15 )
TrainBrakesControllerMinSystemPressure( 15 )
DieselEngineSpeedOfMaxTractiveEffort( 10 )


Now you will have engine brakes.

If your triple valve ratio is really 3.45, then leave it as is.

Thank you kindly Sir! Applied and tested, working great!
