Hi,
I've completed the integration of my turntable with Rocrail. Its main characteristics are:
  1. Must keep track of the bridge position.
  2. The layout display (track plan) must show the bridge position, at least at the end of each movement.
  3. The bridge must always travel the shortest distance. This implies:
    a. When the bridge is empty, the angular movement must be less than a quarter turn.
    b. When the bridge is occupied the angular movement must be, at most, half turn.
  4. As a consequence of the previous requirement, the loco should enter and leave the bridge through both sides.
  5. Drag and Drop, Routes and Schedules could be used to control movements across the turntable.
  6. The roundhouse doors must open or close as needed by the loco movements. The normal state is doors closed.
