I finally got around to tracking down why the asymmetric I called at Extrav didn't work. It started like this: Heads Travel Thru, Heads Prefer The Far End For An Out Roll Circulate (I had to teach it this one) Release, Centers Run, It did the Release beautifully (Sd won't do that one), but then it messed up the Centers Run -- it did a Centers Run and the Centers Zoom! If I view the last snapshot used, it says Record #10173, "Near 1 Run". I don't know why that would be, but I'm guessing you do :-). I remember stepping thru this sequence to make sure CSDS was doing the right thing, but I obviously must have thought I didn't need to verify Centers Run. If I insert a Swing, Swing to make it recenter the formation first, then it does Centers Run just fine. If I call it as one call, Release Centers Run, it produces a truly bizarre result. If I call Release [Swing Twice And The Centers Run], it does it correctly (not even recentering), but it takes 7 seconds to do so. By the way, Feature request: I'd like a fake call to recenter the formation. Sd uses "recenter". Although CSDS can often do a call just fine when it's not centered, sometimes it messes them up (as you can see above), and in any case, it won't give me any getouts until the formation is centered. I'm using version 1.23.04 from last September. vanMelle
