Trainlimitation for stations - Priorities
Posted: Sun May 16, 2021 8:54 am
For my new base I want to use the trainlimit mechanics. One thing I don't fully comprehend right now are which stations are chosen if there is more than one available.
Case 1: There are three stations with the name "Copper - Loading". Let's call them A, B and C. One train wants to move to Copper - Loading
A is closest to the train. It has a train limit of 2, one spot is already reserved.
B is further away. It has a train limit of 4, one spot is already reserved.
C is even further away. It has a train limit of 2, both of them are free.
What has priority here? The distance, favoring station A? The amount of free spots, favoring B? Or an equal distribution of trains, favoring C?
Case 2: Three trains are waiting at the three different "Copper - Loading" stations, waiting for a free spot. Now one train leaves "Copper - Dropoff", so one of the three can drive off.
At A one of the available spots is reserved, at B three of the available spots are used and at C both available spots are used. The distances are the same as in the first case.
Now, from which station a train will be chosen?
