{mosimage} CATrain 2.1 was finished!
Joel has done a well work and now it's finished with a lot of new features - take a look . You could donwload the new file at the download-section
Main fixed bugs:
- system crashes when a section extends to the right border.
- system crashes when an Itinerary capture is aborted.
- system crashes when editing a long itinerary (> 30 sections
- a lot of bugs around scrolling were fixed:
- installing a train in scrolled area was not correct.
- itinerary display in scrolled area was not correct.
- slope display in scrolled area was not correct.
- window resizing not correct when the scrolling bars are present.
- grid scale not displayed in area outside screen size.
- This bug is only present with some Graphic Cards (GeForce 2). It has been overridden by writing the grid scale inside a small temporary bitmap which is "bitblited" later on the main memory display context.
- added "security" features when an unexpected situation occurs (e.g.: rail section not correctly terminated, inverting train direction on an itinerary).
- reentrance problem in ModParam, when a throttle controller was manipulated too fast.
New features:
- Deceleration power curve can be edited to be different from the acceleration curve.
- Display Mode 1600x1120 pixels (max 1600x1200).
- Max number of cars raised from 16 to 32.
- Improved Automatic label assignment.
- Better access to the semi-automatic traffic mode.
---> ! To select the semi- automatic mode at least once from the Menu. After this first selection, the ON-OFF switch will always select this mode by default for the concerned layout. - In semi-automatic mode, manual setting of a switch has the priority on the Itinerary settings.
- The user can force a train to leave its itinerary.
- New Throttle Control Panels, with the choice between rotary or slide potentiometers.
- Current train Id is displayed by a blue "Led" on the Throttle control
- Automatic correct setting of the convergent rail switches, even in manual mode.
- Keyboards shortcuts:
- 'I' to set the current selection keys to "Itineraries"
- 'T' to set the current selection keys to "Trains" (not very useful: this can be easily done by moving the mouse cursor above the throttle controller)
- '1' '2' '3' ...'0' to select one of the 10 first itineraries or trains
- 's' to toggle the state of the next signal in front of the current train
- 'x' to toggle the state of the next switch in front of the current train
- 'PgUp' to higher the current train speed
- 'PgDown' to lower the current train speed
