TL;DR
Train interrupts should allow for regular expression
What?
Train interrupts should allow to use regex (even very basic, fully sufficient would by just "anything", and still accept a station as a destination. "*pickup*" would accept "Iron pickup 1" as a valid destination.
Why?
I like to name my stations Iron pickup 1 / 2...., same for Iron drop 1 / 2... Interrupts are awesome, and adding this would be lovely.
Regular expressions for train interrupts

Re: Regular expressions for train interrupts
I was about to make this suggestion, when i discovered making multi-item dynamic request stations is virtually impossible. Or too hard
I really want to be able to play without mods (cause achievements), and single-item logistic train stations are okay, but having a regex expression matcher would help immensely.
That, or renaming stations on the fly via circuit network.

Re: Regular expressions for train interrupts
Yes, Multi item trains seems to be almost impossible right now. Some people including me gave suggestions how to allow them. But regex would be nice still, I think. If nothing else, so you can have some trains multi item, some single. Or to quicly switch up between them. Also, case sensitivity setting would be great, because I am sloppy and change my casing regularly
Re: Regular expressions for train interrupts
You are my man! The FFF where the Wildcard mechanic was revealed i questioned if multi item was a thing but never got an answer. I am disapointed, that Interrupts do not replace LTN. And i hate, that i have to build whole stations for products, that are consumed slowly or occasionally. The space needed for 12 singleitem stations instead of 1 multiitem station is just rediculious.Frendzel wrote: ↑Wed Oct 23, 2024 10:24 pmI was about to make this suggestion, when i discovered making multi-item dynamic request stations is virtually impossible.
