'''Rolling Restarts'''
'''V4 Trans-Region Trains Now Available'''
Note that a Region restart with a different simulator version has been observed to cause the following anomalies:


Steam Engine refuses to run. Click-start initiates sound and animation but the engine does not move.  
With the improvement of region border crossing in Second Life it is now practical to have a train with riders travel from one region to another. The V4 series of narrow gage engines, carriages and wagons is now available at the Kitto Flora Engineering store in Yeodeol.
CURE: Take and re-rez the engine.


Boats/Swans/Railcar/Monorail go 'off world'.

CURE: Rez  a new vehicle. If you have a muti-sim setup check that all the signals are green, clear as necessary.


July 19th 2008
The development of the V4 series has been long and tedious, requiring changes to methods used by the older V3 single region trains, track switches and signals for compatibility with the V4 Series. V4 and V3 trains will run on the same tracks, but V4 engines will only couple with V4 carriages and wagons, V3 engines only with V3 carriages and wagons.


'''V14.2 Updates for Steam and Diesel Engines'''
Free updates for engine rezzers, carriages, wagons and affected track parts are available at the self-serve update center in Yeodeol.


Please take your Steam or Diesel Engine to the Self-Service Update Center at
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Yeodeol/102/143/351
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Wish/200/200/501
and following the instructions. You can update Black, Blue, Green, Red and Violet Steam Engines, Diesel Engines and any of the special Wagons.
To update a Yule Engine please contact Kitto Flora.
 
When you update your engine you will receive a box containing the matching new carriage (V14.1 carriages for V14.2 engines), all the instructions and all the track. Old track still works, except very old signals, helicals and shunting switches. Please see the documentation.
 
V14.2 is actually an Engine-only update which fixes some Logo Panel problems, adds color and brightness adjustments to the lamp/local light (click the Lamp), and a config line item to set the steam/smoke volume in the Steam Engines.

'''Boats and Swans'''
 
Updated Egyptian Boat and Swan rides are now on sale in Wish sim. These are fixed for H4 changes, and also have user adjustable float height.
The Egyptian Boat now has an option to make the roof invisible, making an open-top boat for better views.
 
If you want free trade-in for updated rezzers, please IM Kitto Flora.
 
'''''DO NOT DROP REZZERS OR ANY OTHER VALUABLE ITEM TO KITTO FLORA'''''
 
'''Error!'''
The first V1.5 Egyptian Boat Boxes were sold with the OLD End and Stop markers in them! New ones have a description of 'Mk2'. If you have old ones - which don't work right, visit the store in Wish Sim, by the Boat Sales is a cube which will give you free corrected markers when you touch it.
