Hi Gerardo,

Welcome to Rocrail!.

Please attach your module plan(s) and your rocrailini file, that way people can visualize your plans and better help you.

Thanks Tom

Hi Gerardo,

If I turn the module 180º in RockGUI, the turntable with it's three tracks not. I think it's a sthetic problem, as my turntable is not DCC controlled (it has a decoder and act as a loco but the tracks are not indexed)

I just fixed that in revision 9841.

Its not possible to connect a third track on the west side with another module, but you could bent the track to the south side of the module.
See: http://wiki.rocrail.net/doku.php?id=pla ... en#rocrail

BTW: There is no program by the name of "RockGUI" but the main Rocrail clients is called: "Rocview". (You are posting in a thread which starts 9 years ago...)

Ok, I'll try ... perhaps with a small module (1x1) with only an curved track north to west

And still alive!!
Sorry by my mistake.

Hi Gerardo,

Rob just answered my questions.

You are right, but I would want to bet Rob is one of only few that knew what you were talking about.

Most of us would need to see the plan not just the XML.

Tom

Ps. Rob any chance you can close your 2008 post!

Hi Tom.
Yes Probably Rob knows more about I'm talking than me

This is my work until now, as you can see, no routes, only one loco, only one switch with address ....

rocrailJaca.zip

Probably you should change the paths.
Also, not sure if the loco picture is in the zip,

I put the modules xml in order to create a blank modular layout and adding them,

I know this post is a bit old, but I've looked around and that was the closest about my issues.

In fact, I have al couple of troubles regarding modules and layout.

• When I define a layout and try to move to a different place (Right click, Select) and move a rectangle wich has a text field, the text field is moved, but it appears blank, I must rewrite the content.
• When I add a new module, normally I can select it to rotate/move (right click on an empty cell) but if there is not an empty one, you cannot select it, the right click on a non-empty cell shows thar cell options in precedence over the module options -- workaround, be sure to have at lest an empty cell in the minimun rectangle wich defines a module

Those are my newbie troubles (at the moment next stop ==> routes)

Yours
Gerardo.

P.S. Sorry by my poor English.

Hi.

It seems there is the same problem with andRoc v. 547. (aesthetic problem only, not a hurry

BTW, we have succesfully checked RocRail in a Raspberry Pi, wit LocoNET interface 63120 accessing a modular meeting (107 m. long) aprox 38 modules ranging from 90 to 800 cm and with around 30 simultaneous locos. No automatically driven. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYlpdCPyukA
