[Request] Train Depot and Train Control Center

Post by nikoloy1 »

I have been experimenting with a huge omni station setup with my play through and it need loots of trains

what i am requesting is a type of condition circuit train control center that assign routes to trains when a condition goes below a certain thresh hold then unassign the route when the condition is met and send the train to a train depot on standby.

scenario example:
let say a red circuit production outpost is running low copper. the train control center will see that the copper is below the lower threshold (lets use 4000). it will then find a from the train depot that matches the train setup set before hand (a [L-CC] for example). then is will assign a preset route to the train (omni station copper <--> red circuit copper). the player has also the option to set the number trains can be called upon. if the copper on the outpost is above the upper threshold (lets use 20000), is will unassign the routes to all trains that was called. then all train that are running but with no routes will go to a train depot on standby and have it available for the next request.

this idea kinda sound exactly like logistics robots now that i think about it. automated logistics for trains i quess
