Thanks for generating all the sessions and doing the experiment. There has to be a way to make it work, what with all the options that ShipIt has.
You are correct that MOuntain King should have cars on the spurs waiting to be spotted when other empties are pulled. I was over there today, and all ten unloading spots were full, and five more cars were sitting on the spur with their diesels running, indicating that they were loaded. So these cars would be spotted when the other cars were unloaded and pulled.
I'll be re-reading the ShipIt instructions and coming up with alternate plans of attack. Again, thanks for all the experimenting you have been doing.
I like the first switchlist you posted. Looks nice and clean and simple.
I really do want to use a computer program for my opeartions. With the staging at both ends, and with 20+ industry spurs, I don't want to have to come up with all that info for every session.
