SCARM

#1

Post by Biskit »

Hi All,
I'm currently looking at making a start on layout design and have opted to use the SCARM software (for now anyway, I know other options are available). Can anyone who's familiar with is advise if/how it's possible to 'force' settrack pieces to join when they don't quite... eg. the Peco ST250 is a compromise between LH and RH geometry and both straights are fractionally longer than a standard ST200 straight by a few mm so if I take one out and insert the other in its place, it won't join up at both ends. I could replace an adjacent piece with flex track but I'd rather not have to, as I know it'll work in reality. Any common work-around to this?
All the best
Ben

Hi Ben, if you go to TOOLS > SETTINGS > EDIT you can adjust the tolerances. This will tighten up or relax the softwares requirement to “snap” the ends of track pieces together. R-
Young at heart. Slightly older in other parts.
