A.I. Engineer

[Alaska Outlaw]

Why does my ai driver stop driving sometimes at switches with the message ai engineer switched lined against us.?

The AI engineer won't go past a switch not routed for him on the back side. This is so if you have a passing track you can set the switch against him allowing another train to pass withought stopping and preventing the AI from just wandering places you don't want him.

'cause the switch is not aligned with the direction the train is moving towards -s o the driver stops the train; otherwise they will derail the train =)

The AI's pathfinding does not change switchpoints, so you'll need to ensure the switches are set so the train can move.
