Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I'm loving the intersections that I see here although the spacing between signals does seem inconsistent at times.
Today I have three intersection designs to share but I have been unable to log into the factorio forums from my desktop pc so there wont be any pictures this time.

It's missing some extra variations that I included in a blueprint string found in this reply: viewtopic.php?p=640184#p640184

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections



I got some intersection designs that unfortunately uses bridges (paywalled behind a DLC) but thankfully the throughput is great according to my testing. I may or may not have made up the name Behlertrumpet.

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections


Hovedgade, nice to see you back!

thanks :)

I got some additional variations of the small turbo roundabout and It is easily possible to make them more compact but then they wouldn't be as beautiful. (One of them has traffic for the left side of the rails and a zero tile gap, so good luck ...

A buffered turbo roundabout for those who like (and don't like) roundabouts

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

Here is yet another roundabout. I know it is symmetrical but i just couldn't resist naming it this way.

Metadata: RHT, 38x38, No buffers, Allows U-turns, 4 tile gap.

Re: Following Trains on Single Track Lines With Prototype Demo


First I was: Why do you have a stacker at the exit?

There isn't always a guarantee that all the trains can fit further down the 2 way track and my lazy solution was to make a stacker such that each train had to reserve a parking space. Your ideas of improvement are pretty good so perhaps i will ...

Re: Following Trains on Single Track Lines With Prototype Demo

Being inspired by what you created i decided to try and make my own version. I personally hate to connect two places with wires which meant that my version of course had to be wireless. This wireless feature does come at the cost of a complicated train schedule. Another big weakness with this system ...

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I am back with more intersections. :)
I took some inspiration from my blitz roundabout but then i rotated it 45°and added frontend buffers. The first design does not use parallel buffers for the same direction and it scored slightly better than Windmill MK2. The second design has more parallel ...

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

This roundabout Im going to show you is ridiculous :D
This intersection is the fastest 2 lane design I have ever seen and i have a feeling that the hard limit is at 138. Using this in your normal save is not recommended for size and ups reasons. I expect this design to be put into the "other ...

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I broke my promise and made something that isn't a roundabout. :D
I noticed that some rails could be rearranged to make a new design after thinking thoroughly about my blitz roundabout. I did add some bends that somehow increased throughput but don't ask me why it works. I expect the LHD design to ...

I am back with 2³ more almost identical intersections! :)
Because i don't want to spend my entire day testing every design I decided to only test one of them. Before expanding to see the picture of the tested design I must warn you that it has a very unfortunate shape in the middle that no longer ...

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

After looking through the list i noticed a severe lack of unbuffered 3 way intersections. I'm sure some of you may have some goods designs to share. I know the the designs may not vary by much but a couple more designs would certainly be appreciated.
Best of luck - sincerely Hovedgade

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I like this design and i hope you do too. :D
The design is compact when compared to other 3 way buffered design and still gets a decent score.

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

Another roundabout! :)
So this time i did cut down on the amount of rail signals. Now it's "only" 268 rail signals when compared to 280 rail signals. This means a reduction of rail signals by a mindblowing 4%! Circuits are (somewhat) still included because of throughput reasons. I also found that ...

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I have another rounabout i feel like sharing. (I only do rounabouts :) )
I hope this design isn't too bendy so you all can adjust it for the train length you prefer. Adjusting the spacings should be possible too if you know how the intersection works.

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I'm back once again with a new roundabout. :D
This one is smaller than hansjoachim's Parallel split medium but has the same score and the same spacing. Without the circuitry the throughput of the intersection will fall drasticly. I tested it with unsafe outputs/exits because this intersections has ...
