Simutrans 120.4.1 / r8826 runway not update

[Andarix]

pak64

The grass runway can not be upgraded via the connection of the runway.

Try with control again, please

[Andarix]

it does not work with ctrl/shift either

[Mariculous]

Andarix,
If I recall correctly, shift-drag has no meaning in simutrans standard. Try ctrl drag, not shift+ctrl drag.
If this does not work, please provide the savegame as I could not reproduce this. Ctrl+drag seems to be working fine for me, also at runways.


I don't know if it is related but maybe it is:
Something simmilar was recently reported for extendeds shift renewal on runways, which does not work, even if forced (shift+ctrl).

[Andarix]

I tried it normally, with ctrl + drag and with shift + drag.

It works neither in pak64 120.4.1 nor with pak64.german 120.4.1.1.

It works neither with existing maps nor with newly created maps.

Rebuilding on rails with ctrl works.

yes, could you try if upgrading wokrs on taxiways?  Maybe there is some special protection for runways that prevents them from being downgraded to taxiways, which plays role here.

@Vladki
It's about upgrading from low runway to higher runway.

Test with pak128 2.8.1 with the same behavior.

Can this be a side effect of Scenario Script?

OS Windows 10 1903

Not quite sure if scenario script could prevent this.
However, any developer trying to fix this, will first need to reproduce this, so please attach the savegame.

I understand. What I had in mind is, that there might be some piece of code - special to runways and taxiways, meant to protect runways from being "upgraded" to taxiway, which is somehow broken and prevents you from upgrading runway to a better runway.

[Andarix]

low runway to hight runway works

low runway crossing taxiway -> to hight runway not work

I marked the field in grafics



dragged over this field than not worked

That will not help. Because with me the problem is present with each map. So also with every new start.

If it is incomprehensible, then stored cards will most likely work.

I can upgrade and downgrade without a problem (at least in the latest nightly). Just ending on a crossing/T is not possible with runways, but this is intentional.
