Coupling derails cars...

  • Hi!


    I am working on some scenarios for my Swiss Fantasyland route and found a really weird problem:


    When I try to couple freightcars (Simtrain) onto my RE4/4 (Simtrain) the whole train 'shakes' and some cars derail! Sometimes it just shakes and stays on track... :wacko:
    This happens when I press the coupling in the monitor (bottom) screen. It has nothing to do with 'bump' speed.


    I am really at a loss here! I couldn't find anything on the forum.. maybe I didn't look good enough but..


    Has anybody seen this problem? Is it fixable?

  • I did'nt have this Addon, so i was hopefully somebody knows an answer. It seems not to be. I think the Loco or the wagons have not a good design.
    I have a guess: There ist a collisons length defined and the receiving points/pivots of the couplings, they didnt match.
    Please look inside working Wagons, I think the collisionslength should be a litle be shorter as distance of the receiving points/pivots .

  • Thanx StS!


    I found that the problem is not occuring when I start with a wagon allready attached to the Loco's and then do the coupling to that wagon.. ?(


    So maybe the collision length of the RE4/4 is wrong.. Good tip about that variable, I will check that.


    For now I will make the scenario so that it starts with one or more cars attached to bypass the issue.


    Something else, not related: Is there a way to do a poll amongst the forum users to check how many own SBB route 1? I want to share my Swiss Fantasyland route soon but that route will only work for users with SBB route 1 installed.. (Copyrights). I know it would have been better to use German assets but I am a Switzerland fan and had allready started routecreation before I joined the forum :S Anyway it would be cool to have an idea of how many would possibly download the route from my site (bandwidth).. I have approx. 120 quick hits on my blogposts/video's so that may be a ballpark figure... also I see a lot of hits from CH so there are Swiss user on the forum. Do you know how many?


    Cheers,

  • Ich übersetz mal seine Frage ins Deutsche:


    Wie kriegt man raus wer von den Forenmitgliedern SBB 1 hat? Seine Strecke baut drauf auf.
    Mit wieviel Downloads müsste er rechnen. Seine Möglichkeit scheint begrenzt zu sein. Aber die Strecke könnte er ja auch hier hochladen.


    @ Paul: If your possibilities for distribution are to small, you can upload your Route here.
