Revision as of 20:43, 21 September 2023

The information in this Wiki Page applies to TANE, TRS19, Trainz Plus and TRS22. It gives examples of how to use the various Navigation Point Rules in Sessions.

For information on how to configure these rules in Trainz see the Trainz Wiki Page at:-


  Top   Next Down Bottom

Application 1: Clearing Unused Navigation Sets

Magnifier.png The Scenario:

A user decides to ignore navigation points at a location and drives straight through. When the consist passes over a trigger the unused navigation point sets are removed.

Conditions.PNG Preconditions:
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Display Rule creates the navigation point sets


RulesWiki.PNG Rules Used:
DotPoint.JPG Trigger Check Rule to trigger the event
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Set Clear Rule to manually complete navigation sets


Screenshot.PNG Session Editor Screenshot:
NavClearSets.JPG


Explanation.PNG Description:
DotPoint.JPG Line 1: Trigger Check the event is triggered by the consist leaving the location with the navigation points
DotPoint.JPG Line 2: Navigation Set Clear a navigation set is manually completed and any visible icons are removed. This can be performed on any sets that have already been completely or partially completed
Lines 3 and 4 repeat the process for any other navigation sets
  Top Next Up Next Down Bottom

Application 2: Checking for Incomplete Navigation Sets

Magnifier.png The Scenario:

A check is made to see if all the navigation points in a navigation set have been completed. If not then the set will be manually completed and a message displayed.

Conditions.PNG Preconditions:
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Display Rule creates the navigation point sets


RulesWiki.PNG Rules Used:
DotPoint.JPG Trigger Check Rule to trigger the event
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Set Check Rule to check if a navigation set has been completed
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Set Clear Rule to manually complete navigation sets
DotPoint.JPG Message Popup Rule to open a message window on the screen


Screenshot.PNG Session Editor Screenshot:
NavSetCheck.JPG


Explanation.PNG Description:
DotPoint.JPG Line 1: Trigger Check the event is triggered by the consist leaving the location with the navigation points
DotPoint.JPG Line 2: Navigation Set Check the identified navigation set is checked to see if all its points have been completed. If not then the following lines will be executed simultaneously:-
DotPoint.JPG Line 3: Navigation Set Clear the navigation set is cleared so all of its navigation points will be cleared (completed)
DotPoint.JPG Line 4: Message Popup Rule a suitable message is displayed on the screen
  Top Next Up Next Down Bottom

Application 3: Wait for Loading to be Completed

Magnifier.png The Scenario:

A user controlled train arrives at a Navigation Point positioned at a coal loader. Coal loading proceeds. The Navigation Point remains in place until the last wagon is loaded.

Conditions.PNG Preconditions:
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Display Rule creates the navigation point set. The Navigation Point is created with its Style set to manual which means it will be completed by another rule and not the arrival of the consist
NavManualSet.JPG

The Multiple Resouce Check Rule is configured to watch the load of coal in the last wagon of the consist exceeding a set value that is close to the maximum for that wagon (apologies for the colour scheme).

MultResCheck.JPG


RulesWiki.PNG Rules Used:
DotPoint.JPG Trigger Check Rule to trigger the message event
DotPoint.JPG Multiple Resource Check Rule to monitor the load level in the last wagon
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Point Complete Rule to manually complete a navigation point
DotPoint.JPG Message Popup Rule to open a message window on the screen

The more obvious Wait on Navigation Point Rule is not used because the Navigation Point will be completed manually some time after the consist has arrived at the location. By using the Trigger Check Rule instead (the Navigation Point is attached to a trigger), the navigation icon remains on the screen until the loading has been completed and then it will be manually cleared.

Explanation.PNG Description:
DotPoint.JPG Line 1: Trigger Check the event is triggered by the arrival of the consist at the coal loader (the Navigation Point)
DotPoint.JPG Line 2: Multiple Resource Check when the last wagon has been loaded the following lines are executed simultaneously:-
DotPoint.JPG Line 3: Navigation Point Complete the Navigation Point is completed and its icon is removed from the screen
DotPoint.JPG Line 4: Message Popup a "Loading completed" message appears on the screen
  Top Next Up Next Down Bottom

Application 4: User Path Selection

Magnifier.png The Scenario:

A user controlled train stops at a navigation point in front of a junction and the driver is offered a choice of paths to allow a passing movement by an AI controlled train. Each path is indicated by different sets of navigation points. The path selected will determine other operations such as junction settings and AI train commands.

NavSidingMap.JPG

Three sets of navigation points are created, one for each location on the map diagram above.

BlueDot10x10.png Set A: at the junction, Point A in the map diagram. The two signals are set to STOP, Switch 2 is locked in position and the user is presented with a choice of using the Main Line or the Loop Line
BlueDot10x10.png Set B: at the end signal on the Main Line. Switch 2 is set to the Loop Line and the AI train is given its instructions to pass on the Loop
BlueDot10x10.png Set C: at the end signal on the Loop Line. Switch 2 is set to the Main Line and the AI train is given its instructions to pass on the Main


RulesWiki.PNG Rules Used:
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Display Rule creates the navigation point sets
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Set Hide/Show Rule to hide and display the navigation point sets
DotPoint.JPG Wait on Navigation Point Rule to trigger the message event
DotPoint.JPG Navigation Set Clear Rule to manually terminate a navigation point set
DotPoint.JPG Message Popup Rule to open a message window on the screen
DotPoint.JPG Set Junctions Rule to set and lock junctions
DotPoint.JPG Set Signal Extended Rule to set signals
DotPoint.JPG Wait Rule to introduce a short delay
DotPoint.JPG Driver Schedule Rule to give commands to the AI controlled train


Screenshot.PNG Session Editor Screenshot:

Creating the Navigation Point Sets

NavDisplaySets.JPG
  • Each set is created separately and sets B and C are hidden.
  • Each navigation point is attached to a track trigger - Point 1 in Set A is attached to a trigger placed in front of Switch 1 in the map diagram.
NavPointSet.JPG
Navigation Point Set A. Sets B and C are similar.

At Navigation Set A Point 1 The Junction

NavSetsChoose.JPG


Explanation.PNG Description:
  • Line 1: Wait on Navigation Point The event is triggered when the consist reaches (and stops at) Navigation Point 1 in Set A.
    • Line 2: Navigation Set Hide/Show The Navigation Set B is made visible.
    • Line 3: Navigation Set Hide/Show The Navigation Set C is made visible.
    • Line 4: Set Junctions The junction Switch 2 is locked against user and AI control.
    • Line 5: Set Signals Extended Signal A is set to STOP
    • Line 6: Set Signals Extended Signal B is set to STOP
    • Line 7: Message Popup A message browser window is shown giving instruction to the user to set Switch 1 to the Loop Line or the Main Line and then move the consist forward to the next signal.

At Navigation Set B Point 1 The Stop signal on the Main Line

NavMainSet.JPG


Explanation.PNG Description:
  • Line 1: Wait on Navigation Point The event is triggered when the consist reaches (and stops at) Navigation Point 1 in Set B.
    • Line 2: Navigation Set Clear The Navigation Set C is deleted and its visible Navigation Point disappears from the screen as the Loop Line path was not selected.
    • Line 3: Message Popup A message browser window is shown giving instruction to the user to wait until the passing train has cleared Switch 1
    • Line 4: Set Junctions The junction Switch 2 is set to the Loop Line but is still locked against user and AI control.
    • Line 5: Wait A wait of 20 seconds then ...
      • Line 6: Driver Schedule The AI train is given commands to move to the next destination via the Loop Line.

At Navigation Set C Point 1 The Stop Signal on the Loop Line

NavLoopSet.JPG
Explanation.PNG Description:
  • Line 1: Wait on Navigation Point The event is triggered when the consist reaches (and stops at) Navigation Point 1 in Set C.
    • Line 2: Navigation Set Clear The Navigation Set C is deleted and its visible Navigation Point disappears from the screen as the Main Line path was not selected.
    • Line 3: Message Popup A message browser window is shown giving instruction to the user to wait until the passing train has cleared Switch 1
    • Line 4: Set Junctions The junction Switch 2 is set to the Main Line but is still locked against user and AI control.
    • Line 5: Wait A wait of 20 seconds then ...
      • Line 6: Driver Schedule The AI train is given commands to move to the next destination via the Main Line.
