With the island terrain changes, will there be other islands on the map to expand to or is it just the one?

For proposal 4.

I would love a button which opens up all 10 rows at once on screen and allows me to add more rows and assign an Icon to the row.
This way its more like an inventory. If i have to scroll through bars one at a time, it would be difficult to find the right bar.

Thanks so much!
I realized not every station needs a full 4-4 train full of items; So having the ability to haul large and small amounts is rather handy.

This is about car lengths, not about simultaneous deliveries.

Train stations with mixed length min/max trains providing the same item doesn't work as expected

In depot: LL-CCCC-LL and L-C-L

Thank you so much! Vanilla trains left so much to be desired.

Questions:

Can I have multiple depot stations?
Do depots / providers / requester stops need to be wired together?

SmartTrains is deliberately limited in functionality, so that there's something left for the player to do, and problems to solve. This entire project (which was very interesting to build and to discuss with others) would not exist, and I would have stopped playing Factorio long ago, if SmartTrains ...

How much of the circuitry could be rolled up into the smart trains mod? is there a real need for the combinators to exist?
