Hi folks, i realy enjoy Factorio and LTN it makrs trains so much easier.
But

i have 246 Station, and evrything is working except one Station.

It is a requester staion with 4 requests, most of the Time it´s fine. But sometimes a train arives witch should bring red Motors, but he has no cargo. And because i turned off the timeout option in the Option the train would never leave.

But if i enable the Timeout, i have the Problem that sometimes a Train not fully unloads because ob large quantatys of cargo.

I rebuild the Staion allready, but the Problem still exist.

Any Ideas ?

Maybe i found the Issue,

The Requester Station had more than 32Mio Units of Motors, Maybe that caused the Problem ?
Since i reduced the amount of stored units, no empty train arrived.

The train who was blocking the station was trying to bring red motors, but had no load, because the staion had 32Mio units in it.

Maybe a bug ? I havo no clou why this could happend.

If it's really an integer overflow, I think it can happen.
But that brings up the question why you had requested so much before. And if you haven't, where do these come from?

Save game or at least some pictures would help us help you.

i am sorry, but i actualy can´t remember why there are so many Units inside the Warehouse, maybe i requestet them by a logistic cest to empty a storage. IDK for sure.

I solved the Problem and since i reduced the amount of Items, all trains are running fine.

Now i try to figure out how to use train signals correct :)
But i am on a good way i think.
