[0.18.43] Placing/Removing rail/chain signal anywhere can cause train to stop at way-point

We are aware of them, but they have low priority. We have more important things to do. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

[0.18.43] Placing/Removing rail/chain signal anywhere can cause train to stop at way-point

A train with a way-point (station without a wait condition) in its schedule will stop at that way-point if the train-braking-distance has reached the next stop before the train has passed the way-point AND a rail/chain signal is placed/removed anywhere on the map at that time. Bug does not occur if the train-braking-distance has not reached the next stop.

Steps to reproduce:
  1. Construct the attached blueprint.
  2. Set train with the pictured schedule to automatic.
  3. Repeatedly place/remove a rail signal on an isolated track segment as the train approaches station B.
Test was done with rocket fuel and max braking force researched.
I expected the train to pass the waypoint without stopping at it as it normally would.

Efficient inefficient design.
