Tags multiplayer, signals

I was in a multiplayer session on the NC Piedmont route available on Trainsim.com. Despite what the dispatcher would set, the signals didn't always match between dispatcher and engineer.

What other info do you need? The trains were mixed, and the route is available for download at Trainsim.com.

Where is the signal that you are trying to set (i.e. which signal from which station), and what are the differences you noted?

I haven't tried the route yet, but I assume I think it will be difficult to try and find out those with problems.

Too many signals to list. I also saw this issue in a multiplayer session using the M&M sub (Trainsim). Red signals which should be green was what I noticed most.

It could also depend on whether you open a dispatcher window at the server or at the client. At present, each client runs the signalling process independent from the server, with only signal aspects broadcasted by the server. As a result, the actual signal states may differ from the shown aspect, this can lead to all sorts of problems.

In our sessions, the server is the dispatcher.

Each client does not perform a full signal update, but receives signal states (and light states) from the server, thus it should synchronize in theory.

Just started rewrite of MP signalling. That should clear this problem as well. It will however take several months to complete this work.

Does the problem still happen with version 1.4?
