Interrupt triggers for inaccessible station

Post by RiverRob »

Interrupts are triggering and generating temp entries into the trains schedule when the train cannot access the station.
The trigger also does not reserve a space at the station (train limit does not change when interrupt is triggered).

This is working in a pull system where one train goes out and gathers all the ingredients instead of multiple trains delivering all the different ingredients. Blue print string of example trains and their interrupt schedule is below

I don't think trains have ever checked station accessibility before deciding where to go. I would expect that a train that has departed for an inaccessible station will continue looking for an accessible station with the same name, but will not re-evaluate any interrupt conditions or return to its prior station.

Edit: I misremembered what I was told in 102289. At least in 1.1, trains without an accessible, available stop will continually attempt to path to inaccessible, available stops until a better station becomes available. It seems this logic has been transferred to interrupt conditions and created some new side effects.
