(edited after more reading) Your post already explains why the suggestion as written is cumbersome and incomplete. Table keys that were set to nil don't exist, ergo every possible table key is set to nil besides the ones that aren't. You can't print them all, so which nil values do you decide to pri...

I agree with a lot of the comments that have been made so far. Giving filters to all inserters is a major improvement. Having "stack inserters" that can't stack, and "bulk inserters" that are only slightly faster but add belt stacking, seems redundant even if the names are swappe...

in this case it is important to temporarily force related trains into no_path state because in this state a train will actively try to search paths when rails are placed compared to a destination_full state in which case train was not woken up by rails being built because in that state it is expect...

Put this in orbit and hook it up to your request circuit: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/GhostScanner

I really lile the idea to handle trains in a genericallier way and like the implemented way. But i miss something very essential for me what LTN brings to the place: Provider and Requester capabilities with multiple item types - i don't see how this is possible with this solution. Did i miss someth...

Schedule yes, definitely. But the entire point of global interrupts is that interrupts are supposed to be written once, and be reusable, so if you can edit them once and the change applied across schedules. If you start to need an individual interrupt for each schedule, this mechanism is worthless....

Interrupts are evaluated when ready to leave a station. It's been suggested that signals from that station are still available at that time. If that is the case, you could simply set the B signal to 1 for stations in the base, and add B=1 to the conditions of the refueling interrupt. What this make...

Freight Forwarding includes my Shipping Container mod, which are literally cars that can only be moved on belts. They can be manually loaded on trains with the Vehicle Wagon mod. I had plans to automate this with vehicle wagon loading ramps/cranes but haven't had time to work on it.

Logistic Train Network does all this already. It uses temporary stops at specific rail segments to set which stop of the same name is selected.

If the expected behavior is to EXACTLY hold the amount of items requested, then it comes to a nervous refill and trash. (...) If the expected behavior is to just take the configured number as MINIMUM, then it possible comes to an overload. (...) It would be nice to have both features available: Hav...

While very cool and will be lots of fun to play with, I doubt it will be a panacea - especially for dense stuff, like city blocks close together. With only two levels, there is only so much you can do. I suspect the biggest over all impact that levels will have will be vastly simplifying trains and...

The only signal needed to make an LTN station a provider is the item signal from the storage chests. To disable this, you need to either provide a "provider threshold" signal with a very large number (that is always larger than the number of items in the chest), or use a combinator to prev...

This is not a bug IMO. In a multi-surface game, it is possible for trains to travel between surfaces. Train schedules can contain station names that exist on both surfaces, or that exist only on the other surface from where it is now. The suggestion, which *increases* the number of cases where train...

Yes, the LTN stop doesn't know where the signals come from. You can connect it to a constant combinator and say "2000000 copper ore" is available. It does have to think there is at least one train's worth there, or multiple train's worth if you want multiple deliveries to be scheduled at o...

If you save the multiplayer map to your computer and load it in single player mode, what FPS and UPS do you get?

Do you have any train mods installed? Some do automatic refueling schedule stuff if you name the stop in a particular way. When you add the station to the schedule, is the schedule entry dark gray/black, or is it light gray/white? The lighter color indicates a temporary entey that will only be visit...

Thanks! Would the Space Exploration beacons also cause this bug? I've noticed the copy-paste issue with that mod too. SE has a set of rules where some recipes work on some surfaces but not others, and some buildings/ghosts get swapped by scripts. You'll definitely need to investigate it separately.

Yes, there's no reason to use a chain signal before a station on a one-way track. There might sometimes be a reason to use chains on the single rail connecting the two groups of stations. Does the problem still happen if there is a chain signal exiting the buffer stations?

Can you share the timestamp when the "no path" text appears over the train? It's hard to see in the video. It does seem like the trains behave normally overall.

One thing to keep track of when testing is if any of the recipes are locked behind technologies. I know that can cause blueprints to be funny sometimes, and if a mod does something unusual like re-lock a recipe even weirder things could happen.
