Lodz Junction - Heads Up For Loco Hauled Scenarios

[BigVern]

I have a bug report pending in the other forum section but just advance warning to anyone playing the Lodz Junction scenarios where a loco run round is required. Don’t change the starting time when loading the run (e.g. two or three hours earlier) as after you complete the run round move at Lodz. Part 2 of the scenario reverts to the original times when the Timetable window returns. So in my case, I was sat in Lodz at 0840 with the train not due to leave until 1137. (IC 3720). As an aside, once you reach this location it is no longer possible to save the game (also logged in the pending bug report). 
 

Have to wonder if this was properly tested, what would happen with effectively two part scenarios using the start time modifier?

As I’m still waiting for my reports to appear for public view in the Bug forum, would further note the save game seems to have stopped working for other scenarios too. I started off IC 7320 and tried to save about half an hour in. Same thing happened… After hitting the save box, game remained in the pause menu. On hitting Esc to return, no confirmation of save in the message box and on going out to the main route menu not registered there either.

So until these issues are sorted, looks like SP off the menu at least for the Lodz Jn route. My initial positive thoughts about these two add ons are diminishing rapidly, but unfortunately too late to refund. Got to wonder what sort of testing was done before they were pushed out.

Scenarios were tested before release. Some of the problems are game/engine related, not the scenarios itself. Some players managed to complete the scenarios some not. Mind that scenarios execution are based mostly on your local computer capabilities and game settings. So on your side scenario might not work but for me it could be completely fine. It is almost impossible to test every scenario with different settings and configurations.
