Problem with ICE-3 in DBsetXL

Post by Baby Bear »

I've been using the DB Set for my whole game and now that i have gotten the ICE-3 Engines... i can't use them...

When i build a train using the ICE-3 engines... the train bulds fine till i put the last engine in.... when i do the word "STOP" appears over the engine and when i put the train into service, the last engine isn't there...

Any ideas?

This problem was mentioned before, I thought it had something to do with the amount of cars between the engines. Try more or less cars or maybe it can be solved by first buying the engines and then placing the cars between them.

Purno is right and the answer to your question is in the readme file (surprise, surprise). The ICE3 is limited to a lenght of 8 wagons INCLUDING the two heads. Just like in reality.

First: this should have gone into the problems category.

Second: why can't anyone use the %#!&@ search button, the solution topic is called nearly the same

Third: solution http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=154755

i know, the search features useless, it seems to search by date, not by how many words match, so trying to search for something that is a few months old which you know is there takes ages, let alone if you dont know its even there or what its called. and thats why i never say use the search feature, cause i know what its like.....

and no problem, your welcome
