v4.6.1 New RHT and LHT Detector.
Together with 4.6 this now makes all kinds of combinations possible to test without errors. You can also now connect to whatever rail you want. No need to use the inner lanes. This makes it easier to adapt to different rail spacings as you don't have to do all the ...

so if i am understanding you correctly, if i were to make exact copies of the original stations, rename the new stations like NE, NW, SE, SW, and add them to the trains for routes then it would work as a proper 8 way intersection testing system. no need to change any of the combinators in the ...

would adding in the additional stops as exact copies of the 4 originals and just connect with circuit wires to the rest work? Will i need to add in additional trains for routes? will i need to modify the combinator system much if at all?

That would work but it would be equivalent to just ...

New version 4.6
Adjustable input tpm, so that you can go beyond the standard 29 TPM or lower to hit the sweet spot for your intersection. Max is 33 tpm per lane.
Removed crossing between input and output. Allows intersections that uses [input output input output] for 4 lanes. Instead of the normal 4 ...

Depends on how well you know the testbench. It's very doable

At the moment I'm not sure the best way to gather metrics, so I'm seeking advice on that as well.

I was able to confirm that this is not a property of buffered intersections specifically, but rather how trains path in general. Here's an example:

My goal is to get trains to take the ...

Based on a little bit of my testing it seems that many buffered intersections out there encourage trains to turn rather than go straight. This may be because of the longer paths inside the intersection from the buffering. Regardless, it leads to high scores on the testbench, where only a single ...

The intersections are now up to date with 4.5.1!

4.5.2 Fixed a rounding error, where it would round down from .9 instead off up.
Now it rounds up from .5

I strongly prefer intersections that do not support lane changes and do not support U-turns.

I know that will sound crazy to some folks and I don't want to derail this thread with debates about it. :D But it means I actually agree with sparr that it would be useful to be clear about this ...

I'd like to see some standardized labeling in the main list to differentiate between intersections where each incoming rail can or can't get to each outgoing rail.

At the moment we only include intersection where every incoming lane can go to every direction. But do you mean lanechangers or not ...

4.3.1 Feature update: Custom train sets, an optional addon for auto testing multiple times
You can set a custom train path so that it simulates your own factory better. Much easier to adjust train lengths now. You have to be in manual mode to test custom sets.
Minor fixes
- You can switch set in ...

Finally managed to match the score of the number 1 on the 2-lane 4-way unbuffered section :D
It took some tweaking, I tried to force it to be spaced by 2 tiles, but I could only make it work with spacing 4 (on RHD at least). I call it Snowball
1:50, 2:39, 3:51, s:47
Probably got lucky though, I ...

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 ...

Happy holidays:)
I will go over the submitted intersections eventually, it's just holidays:)

There is this other junction that was made after Koub made a thread about rail spacing. The goal was to make a 32x32 junction for it to be chunk-aligned. This is not my creation but it was the result that was choosen.(i think it was from hansjoachim)The rail spacing is 6 tile too, there was ...

Could we add the rule that all images and blueprints must be attached instead of 3rd party services please.


There is a post character limit so we wouldn't have enough space for all intersections. We have backups so it's fine. If you mean replies i don't see the problem with factoriobin also i ...
