| SAR Scenario Session Time Change | ||
| For the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0 | ||
|
How to change the Session Start time to any required time to match a seleted timetabled service. |
| When in Driver mode, the session clock will be shown at the top right corner of the screen. The SAR Peterborough Base Session always starts with the clock showing 08:00. The time shown has no effect on the running of any scenarios in the SAR Peterborough Base Session as none of them have any rules or commands that refer to the time. |  |
However, you may prefer to have the session clock match the timetable for a selected run in one of the scenarios. For example, a timetabled train starting at a particular location at a set time such as 12:30.
This page provides the instructions for changing the session clock time to display the time value you prefer.
Using TRS19 Platinium Edition, Trainz Plus and TRS22 Plus
These Trainz versions come with the UDS (Universal Driver Surveyor) feature that allows you to quickly switch between Driver and Surveyor modes and back again. This makes it very easy to change session parameters such as the clock time.
Step 1: Switch from Driver to Surveyor
 |
In Driver open the Tools Menu and select Edit in Surveyor. If you have the Annual Membership Subscription option for TRS22 (Gold Class) or you have Trainz Plus then you will see two Edit in Surveyor options - one for Surveyor Classic (the original Surveyor) and the other for Surveyor 2.0. |
Trainz will immediately switch from Driver to Surveyor.
Step 2: Open the Session Editor
 |
In Surveyor open the Edit Menu and select Edit Session.. This will open the Session Editor |
 |
The Session Editor contains all the Rules that control how a session operates. There is only one rule that we will be editing, the Time and Rate rule. Click on the Time and Rate rule and then click on the Edit button at the bottom left of the Session Editor window.
|
Step 3: Edit the Session Start Time
 |
The Time and Rate has just two simple controls - the session start time (in hours:minutes) and the speed at which time passes (the x value). To Change the Hour Click on the 8 This will open a dialogue window where you can enter the hour value, for example 12. Hours are in 24 hour format from 00 to 23.
Click the Tick button on the Time Hour: dialogue window. |
To Change the Minutes
Click on the 00
This will open a dialogue window where you can enter the minute value, for example 30. Minutes are from 00 to 59.
Click the Tick button on the Time Minute: dialogue window.
The new session start time will now be displayed in the Time and Rate Rule.
The change will be confirmed by showing the time 12:30 in the Time and Rate Rule object in the Session Editor.
Step 4: Save the Time Change
At the bottom left of the Session Editor window are four buttons.
 |
Click the last button, Restart All Rules. This will restart any rules that have already started operating in the session. |
 |
When completed, the button will appear as shown on the left. |
 | Click the Tick icon at the bottom right of the Session Editor screen. This will return you to Surveyor. |
