Can I copy and paste site settings when configuring train?

Post by kevinma »

Imaging that we have chain stations, when the next station is free, the train should go immediately. So I configure the such as:

Stop1: Empty cargo or circuit condition 'Green > 0'
Stop2: Empty cargo or circuit condition 'Green > 0'
Stop3: ....
StopN: Empty cargo

And this style will apply to all kind of ores and product. It's tedious to setup so many trains. So is there any way (or mod) to help me setup?

You can shift-right-click on a train to copy its settings, and then shift-left-click on any other train to copy the settings to that train.

I know that. My question is: how to setup the first train quickly? The first train has a lot of similar station settings.

You can make a blueprint. They save schedules.

They are asking about an individual station, not the entire schedule.

There is no way to copy the conditions of one station in the schedule and paste it to another station.

I don't know if there's a mod that does what you want.

I made a tiny mod to help setting up a schedule with lots of the same conditions: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/DefaultTrainConditions
