TL;DR
Disabled train stops should have a lowered path-finding penalty compared to enabled stopsWhat ?
An enabled train stop should have a higher pathing penalty than disabled stations have.In a scenario like this:
train scenario
The train would choose the left path because the right one contains an enabled train stop but the left one a disabled train stop.Why ?
It would enable players to adjust train pathing preferences using the circuit network. This way players could stack multiple (filler) train stations and then, using the circuit network, control how many of them are enabled - directly adjusting that paths "priority".By only lowering the penalty of disabled stops (perhaps halving it) it wouldn't affect existing rail networks much, if at all - as a free path would still be highly prefered over a path with a disabled stop on it.
Idea which aims to do the same but differently: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=20233f=80&t=21899 (I am aware of the list)
I believe my suggestion is better because it doesn't require a new building to function and only modifies existing behaviour of train stops. It requires minimal changes for much better control of trains
