If LTN creates schedules including both train stops and ports then you need to do is set a different network ID for train stations and ports. LTN will only send goods between stations that have a common bit set in the network ID. Great! I found the LTN option for "encoded network ID" and ...

Hello, I'm currently using the mod Freight Forwarding , which includes several other mods, like Cargo Ships, and I'm trying to incorporate LTN in that setup. Stations for ships are called Ports, and the problem that I'm running into is that LTN tries to send trains to those ship-ports, and vice vers...

This is not really how you use the LTN network to your benefit. I would like to suggest to give yourself an easier start with this fantastic mod, by installing the Warehouses mod by Angel. Also, make sure that you use Loaders that can Sort items. If the ones you're using can't do that, then get othe...

Hello, Some of my LTN-stations function as fuel-requesters for my depots. I would like to be able to switch the requested fuel type at those stations through my circuit network, at a distance, and all at the same time. (So I don't have to visit each depot and manually switch the requested fuel type)...

Inserters can't remove fuel from vehicles, switching to a different fuel always requires manual interaction. Unfortunately that's very true. :) However, with my setup that will not really be necessary. Once the old type runs out, the trains will simply start using the new one. At my fuel-stations, ...

Yes, you are correct, this is not an LTN specific question, but I started searching for LTN depots and fuel and I figured this might be a good section. Indeed, what I would like is a central combinator (at my HQ) where I can set the type of fuel that my depots should request. The problem is that I d...

Good day,

I've got stations at my LTN depots that request fuel for my trains. I would like to be able to control/switch the requested fuel type 'from a distance', through my circuit network. How do I do this?

Thank you.

Thank you for updating FNEI!
Much appreciated!

Hello, I generated a map, then converted it to a scenario, opened it with the map editor, adjusted the terrain a bit and saved the map. When I now open it, the fog of war has been lifted from the areas that I have viewed/changed in the editor. Can I somehow put back the fog of war, so the map looks ...

I would like to request a more fair Squeak Through. - A spin-off if you will. The mod would basically work the same, but it would slow down players by 25% in forests and by 50% while jumping pipes and in between buildings. Frankly, I have always felt ST was overpowered. I do like the freedom of move...

[Train length is ignored for depots.] The manual clearly states this. At least to me its clear. It's easy to overlook that the topic on that page switches from Depot to Requester and Provider. Don't get me wrong, it's noted as it should be in the manual... but still it's easy to overlook that that ...

@mmmPI It worked like a charm! Those white inserters are usually able to keep up later in the game, but you're right and I decided to read only the contents of W1 and base my LTN orders on that. (Just because it was easier, not because I was smart) I think that's gonna work... Haven't actually teste...

@mmmPI Thanks for explaining all that! I understand what you mean, and because of that, I'm going to give it a shot. @DaveMcW Thanks for posting that link! It's probably the better solution, but I gotta give mmmPI's idea a shot because it's a more familiar setup for me. Good to have a (probably) wor...

Hello Michael, I think it's not the trains causing your problem, but the way you combined Unloading and Processing into a single section (more or less). I'm sure you noticed that the problem occurs because belts get fed by the inserters that are last in line. Whether they unload from chests or steel...

Good day, A long time ago this community provided me with the means to balance between chests and warehouses, and sofar it has worked really well. This happens to be an LTN requester-station, but as you can see it also includes the 'balancer', probably familiar to a lot of people. https://snag.gy/Rc...

Yes, what you need is indeed an RS-Latch, but if you're a starting player then keep in mind that stuff like that is quite a step up from starter level. I've got thousands of hours into this game, and I've never been able to make an RS-Latch work for anything other than Power. I guess I'm just not wi...

Optera, A short while ago I finally figured out why your help and examples did not work for me! The problem, as it turned out, was that my inserters were upgraded to a point where they dumped so much in one move, that the single locked slot in the wagon no longer did the trick. As soon as I switched...

Thank you for posting that image. I have connected the Arithmetic combinator as shown, but obviously I'm still missing something. Did I understand you correctly in that there's another part to this solution that is not shown in your image? Being the part where you mention the setting 'each * encoded...

My designs work by using the virtual signals encoded position of vanilla locomotive/wagons. To get them to work with modded carriages simply use an arithmetic combinator to convert signals. e.g. for bobs you can do Encoded position Wagon Mk1 + Encoded Position Wagon Mk2 = Encoded Position of vanill...

Good day, I'm playing a game with LTN and Bob-mods and have set my LTN stations to 1 locked slot per wagon to prevent items getting stuck in the inserters. This worked well for the vanilla train, but now that I've switched to MK2 locomotives and wagons, it no longer seems to work. I have messed with...
