VM, for instance, makes the map-building module crash and burn. So I don't use VM. Then I can play the game, but odd things keep happening. For instance, if I remove a station from a train's route, the train may take "Signal Tower" as its objective, giving me an "impossible destination" error. I can override it with a priority destination, but then it'll be back. After I played for several hours, I also began to have mapping problems. Random sections of line would appear or disappear from the station selection map, and eventually the whole map collapsed to a point. Saving, rebooting, and restarting the file had no effect. I'm in the midst of init testing now, to discover the roots of the problem. If anyone knows the cause of these "features," I'd love to hear from you. thanks, tad -- ~ "Begonia.
