Having looked at some of the <em>newly updated<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/openbve-project.net\/documentation_hugo\/\">openBVE documentation<\/a>, I&#8217;m looking forward to having a play with some of the new features. Let&#8217;s see where we can take openBVE in 2019 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Just a quick update on what I&#8217;m working on at the moment&#8230; As the <a href=\"\/watford-jn_rugby\/\">Watford Junction to Rugby<\/a> project has developed, I&#8217;ve modelled the route with features which occur in two different eras &#8211; the 1980s and the 2000s. Such features include signals, gantries, lineside location cases, insulated block joints (IBJs), axle counters, Mk1 and UK1 overhead line equipment, and so-on. The project consists of a &#8220;main&#8221; routefile at the moment, which includes all of these different-era objects. My current task towards getting the route closer to a release is to hide the 1980s-only objects from the route, leaving just the 2000s objects visible. Here&#8217;s a before and after screenshot showing an example of the changes:<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\">\n<a class=\"bannerlink\" title=\"Railsimroutes - Progress screenshot\" href=\"\/images\/hi-res\/blog_screenshot_180419_01.jpg\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"bannerlink\" title=\"Railsimroutes - openBVE development resumes\" src=\"\/images\/thumbnails\/blog_screenshot_180419_01.png\" alt=\"Project banner\"><br \/>\nWith 1980s objects in place<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"bannerlink\" title=\"Railsimroutes - Progress screenshot\" href=\"\/images\/hi-res\/blog_screenshot_180419_02.jpg\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"bannerlink\" title=\"Railsimroutes - openBVE development resumes\" src=\"\/images\/thumbnails\/blog_screenshot_180419_02.png\" alt=\"Project banner\"><br \/>\nWith only 2000s objects in place<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The location is between Linslade and Soulbury (south of Bletchley), so I&#8217;m making good progress. I have finished inserting the commands and beacons for the <a href=\"\/libraries\/uktrainsys\/\">UkTrainSys<\/a> simulation of the Automatic Warning System (AWS) and Train Protection and Warning System (TPWS), as well as added beacons for the neutral section Automatic Power Control (APC) magnets. <code>.Section<\/code> commands have also been added to the corresponding axle counter locations too.<\/p>\n<p>More updates to follow!
