Maybe it’s the way I’m using my slip
Green/Green is straight across (on the main)
Red/Red is straight across on the crossing track
The two Green/Red combinations are using the slip connections

?Phil,
I think it would be confusing when you have red/green or green/red. What does that actually mean. One is the A-D route and the other is the B-C route. Over time it might become known which is which.
Note: Connections are A-D starting at the magenta/blue connection going counter clockwise.

Think I’ll raise a request then. It’s a very strange inconsistency
I kind of see why filling the circles would obscure things, but colouring the circles actually makes things clearer imho

The developer decided to not implement the turnout circle colors or the filled option since doing so can obscure the visibility of the current route through the slip.
Note: The developer is no longer an active participant.

While I’m building my layout (simulation) I changed the turnout circle colours to make it easier to tell which way they’re thrown
So CLOSED is GREEN and THROWN is RED
Perfect, except
My double slip turnout circles are always green whether they’re closed or thrown
Are they supposed to be like this?
It’s a shame if so (and they’ve always been like this, even before my battle yesterday to get thrown & closed the right way around)
Hoping this is a bug that can be fixed
