Dan,
?
As a possible compromise between the coding gymnastics required to even attempt what Dennis is suggesting, and the reluctance to read through a 200+ page build report most users have, would it be possible to include some hints in the Normal build report as to the problem?
?
I note that in Dennis' case, in both forms of the build report (Normal & Detailed), is returned the line...
Could not find a track for (CIL 4331) at destination (Elk Grove)
Could that line come with a warning, perhaps parenthetically in RED text, when there is a error?? At least in the Normal BR...?
Could not find a track for (CIL 4331) at destination (Elk Grove) (Check tracks for incompatible Capacity/Car-Type/Train)<in RED text>
This would allow the user to have an idea of what might be wrong, and also preclude them having to change detail level of the BR if they did not otherwise need it.
I realize that in the detailed BR, this info is plainly spelled out in all of the preceding text (preceding this actual line), but probably wouldn't hurt to have it repeated...
I note that you have added several "fixes" to the program and if it can help with regards to the build report, I think it would likewise be well received.
Happy to help, hope it helps,
