Easy way to change locomotives for a Standard scenario?

[kylewoody]

Hey guys,

Been inactive for a while, but picked up TS again. I've tried finding an easy solution, but is there like a tutorial or easy way to just change a locomotive for a standard or workshop scenario? I know you have to add a driver and maybe other things, was just hoping there's an easy way to swap out locos in the Editor.

Thanks!

Open up the scenario in the editor from the main game menu, place your new lead locomotive alongside the old one, and you can drag all of the icons over to the new loco from the existing one in the scenario. Then delete what was the original lead loco for the scenario, put yours in its place, and that replaces the lead loco. The rest of the locos and rollingstock in the consist can be deleted and replaced too but make sure you check all of the driving instructions to make sure the lead loco and rest of the consist is referenced correctly, or else the game might be looking for the old stuff and not recognize your replacements giving you a checkpoint failed unintentionally.

Hope that helps. I do that nearly all the time.

Awesome, thank you so much John!

Using TS_Tools by Mike Simpson is even easier than that.
