[1.1.1] Train does not output any circuit conditions to station when in "Destination is full" modus.

Hello,

When the train can't progress to the next station because of the train limit set on that station it stay's in the current station preventing the thundering herd, which is lovely.

But!! And this is my "problem" when the next station does not accept any trains anymore due it's train limit the train will not leave and give the "Destination is full" but it'll not output anything anymore to the connected circuits on that station. You can't read the train contents anymore and you can't read the stopped train ID anymore... That does not seems logical to me because it's still in the station occupying it.

Can this be "fixed"? It seems logical to me as long as the train does not leave the station we should be able to read it's content or ID via the station it's parked in no?

Once the train has decided to try to drive to the next station it is counted as "left the station" it was at. That's intended and working correctly. The "in station" has nothing to do with the physical position of the train but the state of the schedule.

Yeah, I can follow that logic, it however still outputs a train count in that station, so why should it not output it's content or ID ?

No. The train left the train stop and is trying to find a path to goal from next schedule record. It is not parked at that train stop anymore, it simply cannot move because of no path. I made it keep the reservation until it finds another path but this is made for convenience so the train stop is not overflowed by one only because there is train that cannot leave yet.

When trains are incoming they are also not giving content or ID. "Trains count" is not really trains count, it is total reservation amount of that train stop, but for most of the players that is good enough. If the train would be traveling in a loop with waypoints, single train may increase the "trains count" by more than 1 only because it has to keep reservation for every case that train stop is as waypoint in its path.

Ok, I thought because it still outputs a "c" on that station it could output the ID or Contents too. I'll have to find a work around then. No problem this is what Factorio is about.

Thanks for the quick response!

Edit: your Edit explained it a bit more, thanks!
