I have split train (#75 in included save game) and it causing crashes. How can I fix this? (i don't have any old saves). Using A47.

Thank you.

Do you have a save from before the split? That would be more helpful; then Patchman would have at least half a chance of tracking down why it split.

Unfortunatly, nope. I just wanted to know if it can be fixed. Else there goes another game

It can probably be fixed by hex editing the savegame; you'd have to track down all the vehicles that are part of the train, place them all on track an appropriate distance apart, and validate bytes 00, 01, and 5A in the vehicle struct.

But this is just a band-aid. Unless we figure out why your trains are breaking, they'll probably just break again.

The real problem appears to be some corruption in your track, the train is half in some kind of invalid depot, at least that's what the info tool tells me for that tile.

I was able to remove that depot as well as the train, but there are a bunch of other problems in the savegame that cause crashes. Something badly corrupted your memory or something.

If you ever find out how this depot got there, let me know!

I just upgraded my machine and had some problems. TTD had crashed but I had attributed it to my system not yet being stable. That is what probably did it. Thanks.
