5.11.4 Assistance Needed, Ghost Blocks Issue, Dispatcher Issue #dispatcher


 

I think I finally learned enough to make it thru SML but am stuck on Dispatcher which may be related to ghost blocks.
?
I made all turnouts ghost, added sensor and have no logic although I show the sensor on layout and the layout never shows entry occupancy and exit.
?
I initially used auto-generated sections but it was difficult for me to interpret so I deleted all and made a couple simple sections for testing. It initially stopped on a ghost block but by manually setting/clearing sensor the loco moved on and then stopped after going past a level crossing. (There was nothing in the log.) I've tried a few things but can't relate to what dispatcher is thinking.
?
Uploaded file to problems as GGNN.xml from stevemac. I'm new yearning for knowledge so tell me anything. Any advice appreciated.


 

I suspect that the issue is starting a multi-block section with a ghost block. ?This might also be an issue when ending one with a ghost block.

I prefer to use single block sections. ?After creating the single block sections and a new transit, the ghost blocks worked as expected.
