[edit] obsolete-table
This tag is not compulsory.
The obsolete-table describes the asset’s revision history. if you are revising an old asset that had a "kuid" and not a "kuid2" you would need to reference the old kuid number so trainz knew what asset the knew version was replacing.
This field was used extensively for pre-TRS assets, as each version required a unique Content ID. However in order to make the content creator’s life a little easier, Trainz now uses the KUID2 format which adds another number as a version number.
TRS and the Trainz Download Station automatically detects the most recent version of an asset whether it be through the KUID2 Version ID or through the obsolete-table.
If there are no obsoletes, leave the obsolete tag empty.
An example of a obsolete-table tag and container:
obsolete-table
{
<kuid:0000:0001>
}
In this case your kuid for the config file containing the "obsolete-table" could be <kuid2:000:0001:0>
