Train stop limits and disabling train stops do not work well with each other.


This actually helped me fix the issue: I am still mixing the systems, but knowing that they don't work well together I made sure that no train will be on the tracks stations are disabled by making sure that each ...

I see, so I need to work around this in any case. Thanks for the reply.

* Manually send them to "Limited" -> They will both want to go there, but say that the destination is full (expected)
* Switch the Constant Combinator on
* -> One train will go to limited
* -> The other train will stay where it is => Unexpected!

You have a limit of 1, you have 2 trains, only 1 ...

The actual scenario where I observed this behavior has stops with a constant limits, but activation changing on available items/fluids. Now and then I saw trains standing around saying that their destination is full instead of going back to the open station. I need to resolve this manually.

I have observed the following bug/unwanted beghavior:

* Two trains have a stop with a limit as their target.
* The limit changes, so that the stop cannot accommodate both trains

Expected: The trains will jump the stop and execute the next task in their schedule or it will go to the station ...

I know these options. This would require that I have a huge circuit network span the whole base to communicate something that is already known to the train network (effectively duplicating the information in the train network). My rationale was that this information is already shared to the train ...

TL;DR

I would like to have an additional circuit network output from the train stops showing me the number of other viable train stops with the same name.


What ?

Train stops can already put various information on the circuit network. In addition to these I would like to know how many train ...

TL;DR

Allow the signal penalty used in train path finding to be set from a condition (amount of X) on a circuit connection.


What ?

It is already possible to switch a signal to red from the circuit network. I would like to be able to also set the penalty this red signal incurs on train path ...

That is cool!

Can you extend this with a json view, so other tools can use the data, e.g. for crafting/balancing calculations?
Is this on github or somewhere, so others can contribute?

Keep on the nice work!

You only need two copper wire assemblies for three green circuits.

When you take the iron for green circuits and gear wheels from the "inner2 iron line (that one carrying the grear wheels) you can remove the outer iron line.

Oh, that might be. I fixed it temporarily by commenting out the offending lines, but will try with bobs assembly. Thanks!

+1 !

The behaviour is nice for high-throughput scenarios, but breaks lots of my setups where belt contents are exactly balanced based on the sub-factory's needs. I cannot do this anymore because inserters put more than one item on a belt and the number of items changes when another bonus is ...

Not sure if that was mentioned before (did not find it), but I get the following message on startup:

If you go grab "Logic Belts", it adds a few more things not found here that compliment Smarter Circuitry, including both Volume (x10 for nice integers) and Temperature sensor pipes - https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=14824

Okay. I guess we have different requirements for the documentation. What might be added is something along the lines of: "The filter condition decides if the actuator 'toggles'. They work similar to activation conditions on the smart inserter."

On hindsight I figure that's the part I tried out and ...

I would like to see something more documentation tho... for instance, what is the 'filter' for on it? and what signals does it output? If I have a couple lamps wired to it (say, a red and green one), can I set conditions on the lamp's circuit-network setting to light the green lamp and red lamp to ...

Yeah I got lost in the 11 pages, too. Didn't read the novel, sorry. :lol:

I wouldn't really expect a normal human to find that needle in this haystack. If the original author has ...

Maybe this is something for you: http://phabricator.org/

It takes a moment to get used to the platform, but everything needed for scrum is in there.

Considering the new signal helper it could be nice if there was a option in the settings that lets you place signals where they would be "illegal". If you really know what you are doing you are allowed to do so. And for new players they still get denied in placing light in illegal places. Simple ...
