While searching for Lua functions I came across this site.
Might be of interest for those of us struggling with replacing one asset with another in routes etc.

I have used Replacer for track and switch stands and it works well.

Makes life easy

I would like to use it on some routes that have their trackrule.bin still in the Kuju folder and replace the author's track with Scalerail.
Can I do both operations in one go on the route's tracks.bin file?

I have tried to search and replace on a de-serzed tracks.bin of the P&LE, using Ultra Edit because I wanted ScaleRail on the CSX portion and HSC tracks on the NS portion.
That was impossible as the author didn't differentiate between the different roads in this trackrules.
So I changed all references to ScaleRail and it worked. Sort of, because all of the switches were point- and frogless. i..e. welded shut.
Trains ran normally over them, but it looked very much like old Trainz 2006.

Haven't done that much just changed switchstands in Colton and Northern and track to Great Northener's in Rascal and Cottonwood.

Was reasonably easy

OK. I'll just have a got at it over the weekend. Would first like to get Bermudez' Cajon Pass converted into ScaleRail with superelevation
