Portal Dependencies

Portal Dependencies

Adds the vehicles, drivers and driver commands required by the portal consist definitions to the dependency list of the session.

By using this rule in-conjunction with the portals, you can ensure that other users who may use your session will be able to locate the rolling stock, etc required by the portal configurations.

The addition of the rule is sufficient to add the required dependencies to the session. If you add, change or update the portal configuration then you should ensure that the rule has an upto date list by selecting it from the session configuration and choosing to edit its properties. This will force the rule to automatically check for any portal changes.

The rule can also give an indication as to whether the assets required are built-in to the game or custom. This is purely an indication based on the assumption that assets with a negative kuid number are built-in (eg. kuid:-1:?:?) and those with a positive kuid number (eg. kuid:1:?:?) are custom assets.

The rule will also show the assets that are required by the portals that are missing. This helps users determine the assets that they are missing and that they are required by one of the listed portals.

The rule list the portals that it has found and are compatible with the rule. If a portal isn't listed then it will be because that portal type isn't compatible with the rule. The following portal types are known to be compatible: Portal, Portal Basic, Portal Basic Short, Re-rail Portal, Re-rail Portal Basic.

If you use this rule, then don't forget to save the session before you exit Surveyor else the data added to the session by the rule will be lost.

Hopefully this will aid with the deployment of sessions that utilise the various portals.

Requirements: TRS2004 v2.4 or TRS2006
