[0.15.23] Locomotive Interface doesn't update station status

Post by czt »

What did you do?

Opened Locomotive interface and waited for station to be active.

What happened?
Station name didn't color white from red, and destination of the train was set to this station.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
Station name should color to white from red, and destination set to this station


Steps to reproduce:
Have two stations, one if offline (B), second is online (A).
Make train go from A -> B
Timer to cycle the station B
When you open the interface and wait station B to cycle it status, status won't be updated until you close locomotive interface and open it again.

On image below you can see that train is going to "inactive" station, but if I reopen the interface the station will be white

Thanks for the report. This is a general thing with almost every GUI in the game - they don't update when things external to you interacting with them happen. It's primarily due to multiplayer and the latency state that we can't simply keep the GUI in sync with the game at all times.

We may address these issues in a future version when we re-work GUIs in general.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
