Update 14 - Use in sim update method
  • Oh FFS: Fixed another programming error regarding wheel-slip conditions in Reverse causing runaway
    tractive-effort on some locomotives. While this was not a problem specific to the MP15s, it turns out they
    were the first locos that were able to get into this particular condition exposing the mistake
  • Make Otto Great Again
    • Otto's had his attitude adjusted so that he'll allow trains to follow each other a bit moBetta
    • Fixed a coding mistake that would prevent Otto from being able to properly extend a routing, which would then result in all that train's signals getting dropped
    • Fixed a related coding error that would cause a seemingly "stuck" train
    • Otto is now able to attempt to sideline an inferior train when preceding a superior train ("Z" or Amtrak). The inferior train must be within a few signals ahead of the superior train, and this will generally only work in single-track-siding territory. This feature can be disabled in the DS Menu
  • Bakersfield Sub:
    • ◦ Fixed a standoff situation at CP Fresno regarding Amtrak
  • San Bernardino Sub:
    • Fixed a standoff situation regarding either outside-end of DT Jct and Los Nietos, where Otto could cause trains to go head to head out of Bandini and\or Santa Fe Springs
    • Fixed standoff situations at Highgrove M1 EB and M2 WB
    • Added length limits for several diverging routings between Hobart and Bandini to prevent Otto overhanging those control points and blocking multiple tracks.
  • A-Line:
    • The signal at the north end of Solite has been moved so that the industry spur switch is not within the control point
  • I Was Blind But Now I See: We've increased the light exposure value at night to make it easier to see
  • You Wanted It, You Got It: In the Host Network Menu there is now an option for filtering out those useful fun
    words that one generally can't say in church, you know, the stuff you heard Uncle Chuck say during a bad day
    of fishing. Such words will be censored from the offending text message before being rebroadcast to the
    network. This option can also be set in the Host's AutoServerConfig using the new <UseCussFilter> xml tag
    (true\false value)
