Re: trains behavior with few same name stations


The problem with having the same number of trains as stations is that they will all block each other, there is no empty station to path to.

As I said, my method works best if you are over producing. If you had 3 ore stations going to 2 smelters, or were able to load at the ore station faster ...

Re: trains behavior with few same name stations


I use same name stations and what I found works best is to have (for each cargo type) N-1 trains where N is the total number of stations, and each station is limited to one train (unless there is a stacker at that station, in that case I add 1 to N and the station limit for each stacker lane ...

Re: trains behavior with few same name stations


There is a new feature in 1.1 where you can limit the number of trains pathing to a station. If you set that to 1 then they will pick other stations once the closest has a train going to it


that could work but that limit not absolutely crear:
limit 1 to what ? for simultaniuos destination of ...

Re: Does game able to use more than 30% of my CPU ?


There is another possible bottleneck for your performance: RAM access timing and bandwidth. This is more difficult to diagnose, because the majority of basic monitoring tools don't show it.

In order to update each entity, Factorio needs to change a lot of data across all of the game state which ...

Re: How to unlock ingame tutorials ?


I think they unlock on specific research being completed, no idea why it did not trigger for you. You could start a new map and complete all research via command and it would make tutorials available in general or you can edit your player-data.json file and set all to "suggested".
Look for those ...
