first thing -> use pre-signals properly, use the wiki to find out more, check out advanced signals or something like that.

second thing -> When you're posting, look down a bit and see the "Add an Attachment" button. Use it.

i dont understand the description i found on wiki on how to do it

here`s the screenshot (1200x1000)

can someone maybe show me how to get it right????

pre-signals

I shall try and explain the best I can.

At the entrance to your station to need to begin the pre-signal block. To do this, get the signal tool, put it over your existing signals, hold down "ctrl" and click. There will now be a yellow thing under your signal, this means it is a pre-signal.

Next, at the start of each platform you must make "exit signals" to do this, follow the same instructions as for "pre signals" but click twice. There will now be a white line under your signal, this is now an exit signal.

Beware, exit-signals MUST be two way signals or it won't work.

Think of it as a block, the pre-signal starts the block and the exit-siganl ends it, the trains will now behave as normal as it leaves the station.

If you still don't get it, post your savegame please

thx i solved it........

it was the Exit-signals that wasn`t two way

no problem

glad to hear it. if you keep to my simple model, everything should work fine!
