Bug Description
Hi,
It's becoming regular practice to use a Freight Animation in the tender to show footplate crew on the loco where the latter already has an FA for other parts. Up until the issue of X1944 the crew was correctly shown. From the next issue (X1955) they seem to appear in various locations, but very often by the smokebox - see attached screenshot. This coincided with the issue which corrected the problem with the tender load, which also uses an FA. I appreciate that it may not be possible to make both types of tender FA display correctly, but I found it difficult to actually find a tender which used an FA for its load! There will be a great many more which use the tender FA to place crew on the loco footplate.
One solution I found was to change the Type parameter of the tender to read Freight instead of Tender, but that's unsatisfactory due to its effect on the ability to refuel!
The loco in the screenshot is one of those included in UKTS file ID 32751
Thanks,
Ged
