Bug Description

Hello,

If i drive on the LGV MEd (or other route) and drive 300 km/h or 320km/h with a TGV, i must every 5minutes slow down (in explore mode, activitymode)

And if i will take a swith for to go a sidestation or station, this go only on the last 2 meters before the switch. If you run in the Multiplayermode, you can make a trafficway, bud not for the full path, onley for a little piece of the path

Can this be fix or update. Or that the user can mod this?

I have this problem with the French TCS script, bud without too.

In advance thanks,

Stijn

If I remember the code correctly, in explorer mode, the path is calculated on a distance of 5 km.
That's why, on HSL, the routes are not set soon enough and the train has to slow down.
On such high speed lines, you need at least 10 km clear in front of the train.

Increasing the distance value won't solve the problem. As in the activity mode, we need to use the SignalNumClearAhead variable to know how much signals must be opened in front of our train.

I already talked about this problem here : http://www.elvastower.com/forums/index.php?/topic/27482-signals/
