Great! Updated the forum post=)

TBH what I want to see more of are intersections that take the possibility for elevated exits into account. Most of the current designs assume the entrances are always at ground level (which I know is partly necessary because the stations used for testing must be at ground level), but this is a ...

I just double checked the blueprints for Spaghetti Junction and I accidentally left a small mistake in the variant with 4-4-4 tile spacing so here is a link with the corrected variant and I hope it will be updated with the small correction. Spaghetti Junction got misplaced with 2 lane ...

First train intersection design I've made myself (Romayne)

Score 176.74, settings shown in attached image.

2-lane buffered(?) 4-way intersection, elevated, RHD, 212x222

and

2-lane unbuffered 4-way intersection, elevated, RHD, 96x96

The buffers on the ends are kinda crappy but they help, there ...

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.

Designed a couple of new intersections. 4 spacing RHD, chunk aligned with power poles, buffered for up to 6 length trains in every direction. 3x3 chunks for the 4-way, 3x2 for the 3-way. Can get slightly higher TPM by signal spamming but I didn't care to double the signal count for ~5 more TPM ...

Rotationally symmetrical 3-chunck 2-lane RHD

Entrances are widely spaced, so i could fit my straight sections around my powerpole and roboport grid.

Thanks, ill test around. The 4 way only deadlocks if a train attempts to U-turn, traffic in any other direction should never deadlock. In order to prevent that deadlock, i would probably need to kill the waiting area in the middle of the crossing, slowing down trains quite a bit but ill check ...

Ive been trying to design some intersections for my SA playthrough. They use a 2-4-2 spacing because i like the symmetry and look. Ive been trying to balance compactness and throughput so while these arnt the fastest, they are much smaller then other designs. Both are LHT

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 ...

Yes, I can rename. Both the intersection you posted deadlock. For intersections with U-turns, they should be tested with the Everything test. Actually so does the first one you posted, so I'll take them off the site untill they don't deadlock.

I fixed my intersections. I updated images and ...

Updated it.
There was an issue with the safeoutputs so I had to wait to test until I adjusted them and I have retested the 4 way 2 lane oneplane intersections.
Great new intersections added=) Awesome guys!
Hovedgade, nice to see you back!

Up to 10 is pretty bad.
Does the 4 lane thing allow lane changing?
You need to run way more tests to confirm that 50 is better. Like to find the margin of error we probably need to run like 50 tests


My four lane intersection is fully connected allowing each station to reach any other ...

I was a bit disappointed that my latest intersection scored just below the currently top ranking Zaanza intersection. So I loaded that to see what I could learn from it. However, when running the benchmark a few times I noticed that the performance randomly varies up to almost 10 trains per minute ...

Good=)
Yeah, I'll change the icon. Making it more visible. Im overhauling the UI atm.


If I might make a suggestion, is it possible to add the factorio version and the mod version in the test report? This way it is clear when it is needed to rerun a benchmark should something change in either ...

Thank you, I found it. That button is almost invisible to me :D. Please consider making a large dedicated button on the Control Panel.

In settings you can choose between "Testbench forum test" or "Everything test".
I still don't get, where are these settings, which mod? Is there some url explaining these particular settings?

For intersections with U-turns, they should be tested with the Everything test.

What is Everything test?

The Everything test sends trains to every possible station and allows lane switching and u turns. Great for ...
