Running train 6128 on the Lodz route after saving three times, started getting the error message, "Cannot save right now, routes are being processed".

Thank you kind sir, switching to beta version as I type this. Look forward to getting some testing done.

Thanks Krolik. Do I need to enter the beta path on Steam to access as my latest version of the game is Build 30/05/25 1826?

Sorry to respond in English (I have posted also in the English section) but I would like to do some testing on this. How does one go about accessing the beta, please? And in Polish: Przepraszam, że odpowiadam po angielsku (zamieściłem też post w sekcji angielskiej), ale chciałbym to przetestować. Jak uzyskać dostęp do wersji beta?

I can't find it mentioned in Announcements, but I have seen posted elsewhere some small changes have been made to improve the Alpha Save Game feature and the developers are looking for players to try the feature out. As a very vocal proponent of improvements to the SP and save game I'm more than happy to do some testing. However, it would be useful if the developers could list all those single player scenarios which are now compatible with the save game or even better put some sort of symbol or icon next to them within the game menu.

Maybe try one of the other training scenarios?

100% agree. We need more than just a handful of scenarios, though the elephant in the room remains getting the save game into a state where it can be relied upon. In the long term, signaller mode in single player would be invaluable as an aid to train on the more complex signalboxes, before joining a MP server.

Thanks, I'll take a look at those. Edit: Well the first save I made, on the EN57 scenario that starts with a shunt at Krakow worked okay. However the second time I tried to save, I got a Unity Hexdump message in the comms window. So not quite there yet. Shame as it looks like a good scenario.

Just wondered if SimKol could give us a progress update on the bus and tram games, which at one point they indicated they were working on. Thank you.

Have had a look round but can't find the answer to the above question. Reason for asking is that I tried the EN57 service on the 1980's timetable but when I attempted to use the alpha save game, I still got a message that the scenario wasn't compatible. So could the developers kindly state which of the single player scenarios were updated to the new standards and/or post a list of all the scenarios which should work with the save game test, please. And thank you.

Just a further example. I drove the Regional Lodz to Skierniewice as far as Koluszki and attempted to save there but failed with the same error message about building routes. No file to attach as this was my first attempt to save.

No problem Sui. Attached as 7z file as SRSAV not currently a supported format on the forum. Can't remember exactly where I was on the route when I saved but had been driving for about an hour or so out of Lodz, in total. Many thanks. 2025-05-01_21-57-02.7z

Thanks for logging it and responding.

Just a quick update... I did run into a bit of an issue which I submitted to the bug section (still awaiting mod approval). Also appears the alpha version doesn't work on the older (original) scenarios as I got an error message when trying to save one of those. But still, early days yet and looking forward to seeing how this evolves. About to see if it will work with the steam train scenario. Edit: No it doesn't.

I hope the mods/devs will permit this as, while the .conf file change which enables the SP save feature has not been generally publicised, it is out there and I prsume the intention is they would like players to use/test and break (!) it offering constructive feedback on the much needed feature. So first report from me, running the scenario IC 6128 Lodz to Warsaw. I had previously made two successful saves on Thursday and played the second one of these on Friday afternoon and saved on exit. However when I came to load the save on Friday evening it was not present in the list. I reverted to the previous save and once up and running I attempted to save the game again, but got the error message that the save had failed "Cannot save right now, routes are being processed." Now interestingly I fired up the scenario again this evening. It will save successfully from the original scenario, but once I loaded a previous save and tried to save again I got the same message about routes being processed. Hopefully this will be of some help to the team. Edit: I will now try and see what happens with a different scenario on another section of the route.
