Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

Hey, I have looked at it There is one major throughput limiter and that is in the center for all 4 straight paths. In circle 1 straight driving trains have to wait for potentially 4 different trains to pass. Therefore they can only pass every fifth time on average with heavy load. If you were to mak...

Similar to some of the designs posted, but it works well.
I have seen that multiple times before.
Works ok but you should preferably keep turnarounds out of the intersection, atleast in busy areas

Does today's patch (0.17.38) change all of the deadlock discussions?
It probably does, needs to be tested first.

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

Is it possible to submit a design for testing and improvement/feedback? I helped my kid develop this but it's his intellectual property. Yes it is=) But please provide a screenshot so that one doesn't have to open factorio to see it. On this forum I'd prefer 4 way intersection. The trainstation loo...

Re: 3-way intersections: Throughput Compendium [Image heavy]

I have switched the blueprint around a couple of times and the current version sounds like it have an error. I'll take a look at it but not today. If you want you can download the blueprint book I have called 3 to 1 train merger and swap out the merger

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

I widened the multicross interior so that I could fit a roboport in the center and I got slightly better performance. 89-->91 on the p1 test in hansjoachim's test bench. https://pastebin.com/14CXYw5B Great :) 91 is within the margin of error.

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

To test it, you can throw it on the test bench. Download my version of it if you want to understand the test bench more easily. It doesn't make any unnecessary crossings, no roundabouts and is correctly signaled. It should perform exactly like the compact intersection or really any good 4 way 2 lane...

Quick bar doesn't sync between games

The quick bar doesn't sync between saves. It looks like I have to set up the quick bar between every time I enter a new world or start a new one. I was under the impression that the quick bar would sync between worlds. To replicate: 1. Start a new world 2. Edit the quick bar 3. Quit the game 4. star...

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

I got a 2 way, 415 trains on 5 minutes => 83 trains/minute (3 length trains) This solution has some good sides : - Trains can turn back by crossing the middle section three times. - It can be scaled without too much cooking - The flow is good, the main slow down come from the middle horizontal vert...

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

Thanks! Yes, I'm using nuclear fuel that's why my numbers are higher. :roll: I wanted to let the trains as far in into the intersection as I could without completely deadlocking it, that's why I don't have chain signals everywhere. Guess it was a bad idea. Also, on every left turn before merging ba...

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

Sadly I don't know how can I improve this further So I improved it with correct signals. I also made a better version with extra right turns. Original: 30 trains/min set 1 Correct signaled: 41 trains/min set 1 With extra right turns: 48 trains/min set 1 btw: those test are with rocket fuel. With Nu...

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

Hi fellows :) This is my setup that I made without checking in here before. I find pretty good, but there's some problems. My trains drive on the right side, not left. Pro : + No deadlock, impossible + Simultaneous 2*2 way train on long lanes is possible + Very compact + Modular + Use rounds to pla...

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]

Classic design 4 way 3 spacing 2 lane 1 picture: Blueprint: https://factorioprints.com/view/-LWx8p9ga_BOerpE6Q1b Throughput can reach around 50/m (with 2-4 trains) but my test map is different so it might not be precise. It's also deadlock free. (I know it's very basic but haven't seen a 3 spacing,...

It also deadlocks very easily. I had it running for 30 sec before it completely deadlocked. You have to add some chain signals to prevent that from happening.

For throughput, left turns are big problem. As if you have to take left turn you have to take a full round and...
