A deleted track whose read events or track circuit no other track took says so by the cursor, naming the signals and the circuits, and the editor keeps them for the track laid in its place, within a metre of its axis. The read of each signal goes to the piece by the signal, on the list its facing there gives, so a track laid the other way round keeps the trains reading it; the other events go to the piece at its middle, the circuit to a track lying there for the most part, a new track taking it instead of the one of the track it was made from. It happens in the step which lays the track, so Ctrl+Z takes it back and laying it again gets them again; a track which took a circuit over and is removed by another step leaves it to that step, and the events of a signal taken away stay off the tracks.
The SRK panel of a station lists what it and its lines need: signals no track reads, lines broken off where the tracks go on beyond a gap, tracks of a line of the automatic block in no block section, block sections whose tracks are gone. A row shows the place; Repair has the track by each signal read it again, as moving it does, and sets the line signals again where tracks are in no block section. A warning after an operation shows by the cursor in amber, a refusal in red as before. srkcheck counts these too, srkfix repairs, join takes the height of the ends for sceneries far above zero.
A block boundary of a line both ways has, on each track, the block signal of its trains 15 m before the joint and the one of the wrong-track trains 15 m beyond it, named after its twin with N, both on the outside of the line, the templates leaning the other way picked for the N ones, as on the lines of PKP PLK. The mixed block keeps the automatic block for the trains of the track and the semi-automatic one for the wrong-track ones: no N signals, a warning disc the braking distance before the entry signal of the wrong-track trains. A choice under the table of the lines sets either for the double-track lines of the station, kept in the record of the station, and by itself a line takes the mixed block where a warning disc stands for its wrong-track trains and no N signal does. Set the line signals places the N signals or the warning disc and takes the other away, a block boundary drawn places the N signals of a line both ways, and sbl_odstep.inc switches both block signals of a section with its 7th parameter. The name shown at the mouse while drawing takes the letter the block signal will get where its number stands already.
The station schematic shows the lines out to the next stations straightened: their block sections in the colours of their names with their lengths, the joints, the block signals and the warning discs with their km on the outside of the line, the axis in km; Lines fits them in, a section under the mouse tells its name, length and km, and a click on it flies there in the 3d view.
The track mode Kilometrage (X, under More) puts a point of the km where a track is clicked: the line, the km and, at a jump,
the km on from it. The axis of a line follows the main paths of the switches through the tracks of its points; on a
double-track line it runs between the tracks, and where they part on formations of their own and come together again it
runs along the longer one, the shorter one going by its own length with its last hectometre before they meet taking up
the difference (PKP GK-1 6.1.12). The km between the points are stretched to the length of the scenery evenly; the panel
lists the points with the stretch, the 3D view shows the axis, a tick at each hectometre, the points with their km and
the km of the lines by the mouse. Read the km from the posts turns the hectometre posts along the line into the points
of its km, a jump where two runs of numbers meet, and warns of a jump on a curve or at a station (Id-1 § 19). Each change
is a step of undo.
The station keeps its km and the direction of its numbering in its record. The block signals are named after their km, odd on track 1 and even on track 2, the sections after the signals at their ends, and each signal gets the control of its section.
The name of a node or "(no name)" was written out in twenty places and
four local functions, a lower-case copy of a text in four files, the
test for a number, the file name of a template made comparable and the
heading of a direction in three and two, the green main button of a
panel in five and the key=value parameters of a self-test command in
five. Each of them is one helper now: name_of, tall_button_height and
main_button with the panel helpers, numeric with format, normalized
with the include helpers, heading_of with the plan geometry and
selftest_values with the tools; lower gives way to ToLower.
editor_services was growing into one interface every tool depended on
whole. It splits into the roles the editor plays for its tools: the
selection, the view, the undo history, the templates by the track, the
ground with the terrain model, the track design and the guide of the
first steps. Each tool is handed only the roles it uses, so what it
depends on can be read from its constructor; editor_services stays as
the sum of the roles the editor implements.
The seventh tool out of editor_mode. It reads the selected set of tracks
and the tab shown through the services, digitizes the tracks it lays and
refreshes the plan after it sets one parallel to another. The panel shown
for two selected tracks is a public call of the tool, and the self-test
command parallel moves with it and lays the same tracks as before.
The fifth and the sixth tool out of editor_mode, the two lineside ones
sharing their file. Placing, moving and taking out the templates which
stand by the track become services of the editor, with the template
types of their own, and so do the tab of the track tools shown, the
ground under a point and the first step done. The context menu, the
click on a fouling point in the view and the lineside tabs go through
the public calls of the tools. The self-test commands hekto and fouling
move with them and log the same as before.
The fourth tool out of editor_mode. The track under the cursor and the
first steps of the tutorial become types of their own, which the editor
gives to the tools, and a tool shown as a tab of the lineside panel keeps
its open and expanded flags in a tool_tab. The trainsets waiting for the
save are handed to the editor by the tool, which hears back when they
were written. The self-test command trainset moves with it.
The third tool out of editor_mode. It reaches the terrain model and the
places of the tracks on it through the services, the place of a track
for the terrain model is a type of its own now, and the laying and the
switches ask the tool for the kink it allows. A self-test command can
ask to be run again in the next frame, as the check against the terrain
model does while the model comes in.
The second tool out of editor_mode. Tools get two more hooks, the overlay
drawn over the view and the options in the tool window, and the editor
gives them the track it focuses on, the node it makes current, the norms
of the route design and the snapshot of the tracks for the undo.
The check gets a self-test command, speedcheck <scope>, which runs it
through and logs the paths found too fast for their geometry.
The first step of taking the tools out of editor_mode: a tool keeps its
own state and reaches the editor through editor_services, the few things
it needs from it, instead of through every member of the editor. The
editor holds its tools in a list for the hooks they share: a deleted
node is forgotten by all of them in one place, and a self-test command
the editor doesn't know goes to each of them.
The gauge moves with its state, its window and its self-test command;
the ImGui ids and the texts stay the same, and the self-test gives the
same hits on the test scenery as before.
