[kovarex] [0.17.32] Trains on automatic with no stations make "no path" notice

Post by DoubleThought »

As in title, when a train in "automatic" mode has no stations, it shows a "no path" red text.

What did I do? What happened?
I made a train in Automatic mode. I used the temporary station feature to transport myself, but the train has no stations beyond that.

I enter the train, select my destination, and exit. After the 5 seconds elapse, and the temporary station vanishes, the train shows the "no path" red text.

What did I expect?
I expected no "no path" text to appear: after all, if there's no need to search for a path to the next station, it wouldn't need to show that it isn't able to find a path.

I would even consider having the train switch permanently to manual if there are no stations in its schedule; if there's nowhere to go, then there's no need to try to go there.
