Quick question about train length and big delivery

Post by coolfarmer »

Quick question about this mod.

I have a provider (minimum train length of 2 and max 5).
I have a requester with the same settings.

I have multiple depots with for example 2 trains of 5 (Loco + 4 wagons), and 4 trains of 2 (Loco + 1 wagon).

My provider have over 50k of copper plate in it.
My requester have over 95% of space empty.

Any reason that the mod call my smallet trains to do the delivery?
Any help or explanation?

Thanks!

Set the request threshold at the request station to the amount you "want." In my experience, it will give you it if it can. I've not dealt with trains of various lengths, but that is what I'd try first.

The request threshold is the the amount where LTN will start looking for a train. The negative number of an item is the maximum amount you want.
If -<item count> >= request limit then request -<item count>.
