Version 1.14.4 Windows
I have get regional contract who have as first leg to go at one onbound station (Where is impossible to build a coach) , the train finished this leg go out from station as normal train. After the 15 min of pause the train is ready to enter station for the second leg. At this point clicking on the circle icon tell me who the train not exist. And clicking in select platform to enter, the only selection is coach yard

I would like to ask for a save.

Generally, it is now possible to build a dispatcher office in border station (unlike coach yards). Imagine a building where a special dispatcher capable of renumbering trains sits. Thanks to this building, two things happen:

  • that station can be first station of 2nd and eventually 3rd leg of any regional contract because train number change can happen there;
  • game starts generating contracts for this station that pop up next to the DO.

So now you have to stable the train somewhere for the intermission period. You should be careful not to let it leak out of the map because then it is gone without return (for now). If you do that with a trial train, contract should fail. If it does not, it is a clear bug.

Instead, you should send the train to some stabling track nearby where it sits and waits for its time.

Eventually, you could send it to some CY in another station but then you will most probably not have enough time to bring it back on time.

Can explain me now how work the train in the following SAVE GAME? How reverse it? Ehnr finish the 2nd leg what to do with train? If i bring it at Coach, there is no way to re use it for new contract starting from this station.

and finally watch the first contract on dispatcher for this tation. How starting it?

#

One problem there is that Psie Pole (Dogs Field) is considered a border station by the generator but has no sinks.

#

if you try to starting this first contract, notice who there is no way to bring it out at any platform of station

#

Exactly

rustic pebble
#

Then the error is the contract generator who must dont generate this kind of contract for that station and similar

south swallow
#

true story!

#

There is indeed a bug in it as it does not count with DO built on border stations

#

let's fix it

rustic pebble
#

i think there is need a good guide to the Regional train Contract. Why dont bring it out?

south swallow
#

We are in the middle of introducing them now. I undestand it may be pretty confusing for players having CYs in their maps already.

FIX: Some regional train contracts originated in non-border stations if a Dispatcher Office was assigned to a border station
BUILD: 1.14.5
#

And this is indeed a bug as well

You should be careful not to let it leak out of the map because then it is gone without return (for now). If you do that with a trial train, contract should fail. If it does not, it is a clear bug

south swallow
#

I understand!

#

However, your participation on unstable version would be highly appreciated as your comments and reports are always very helpful!

rustic pebble
#

ok.

#

if im correct must set for beta tesiting load my game save and make a new save for it if something go wrong

south swallow
#

Yes, that is a careful way

rustic pebble
#

when the official patch is relased the saved game done with the unstable version is valid or can bring some trouble

south swallow
#

we try our best to keep saves from unstable branch loadable
