Trains, Trains...

Post by noobhead99 »

I need help on trains, there is a train (copper to be exact) and it says no path. What weird's me out though, my stone train can perfectly reach its journey. The copper train can go to the mining outpost, but not back, please help, I've became very frustrated trying to fix this. I will show the stations to the base as that's what i think the problem is. Mind my handwriting.

From the images, looks like trains can only go north... and cannot go through the mining stations while there is a train stopped there.

Drive the train manually a tile out of the station and then set it up to automatically go to Copper1 again and it will work.

Hello noobhead99,

I have only looked at the pictures but it appears the train stop at the copper station is in the wrong position.
It is closer to the chests than the stone station so the train isn't fully in the station to enable it to leave heading north.
If you send a train to the copper station you should notice that some of the inserters don't line up with the wagons.

I did notice that but I didn't notice, it is still working normal now, thanks for your comment though.
