Signal1waittime problem

Greetings.
Recently I've downloaded a43 and here's my problem:
not depending on the signal1waittime setting (i set it to 255) as soon as a train encounters a double-sided signal it turns back immediately without waiting at all! That's very annoying since I sometimes have one station which can be entered from both sides.

Besides, zbusw.grf doesn't seem to work with a43, and there's no newer version at ttd.cernun.net.

Thanks.

Hope I'm not out of line here, but I too use Zoom's Russian Buses. I fixed these last night - so here is the A43 compliant GRF




As the the turning round of your trains - I have not experienced this and also use the 255 setting - perhaps if you can post your savegame, ttdpatch.cfg and newgrfw.cfg

What's your signal2waittime setting?

My signal2waittime setting is also 255 and it seems to work better, though if the train has to wait for a very long time, it turns back too.

Does this happen with all trains and all signals, or just some of them?

It could be that it's a path-based signal and the train cannot find a path through the PBS block, so it's not allowed to pass the signal and thus turns back.
