Trains : Stock on demand ?

Post by Wabon »

Hi there !

I come here to find many help about my little problem, I haven't find a solution before...

I would like make a trains system in 3 stops for any trains:
First stop : Making resource/item (Ores stops, production of green circuits, production of iron/copper/steel plates, etc..)
Second stop : A special waiting bay for type of train cargaison. (10 waiting for green circuits for exemple, 5 for plastics, etc...)
Third stop : Stop informed by the logic circuit, according to demand,
And back to first stop.

The network will fetch a train on a waiting bay, any train...
For exemple, I dont want a train with a shedule type: Production layout > Waiting bay > go to Layout A if demand is true.
But : Production layout > Waiting bay > if demand on layout A, go to layout A. if demand on layout B, go to layout B, etc...

Right : Production stop
Top : Waiting bay
Left : Stops with demands


So, I would like something like that, lot of waiting bay, (then, if I must enlarge this, I can do it easily)

Soo, thank you for your help :)
(And if that already have an answer, copy me link ;))

Code: Select all

while($player->isAwake()) {
    $player->play('Factorio');
    if(!$player->isAwake()) {
        $player->awakening();
    }
}

Ho, it's work with LTN :o
Thanks for suggestion ;), but sometime, I have a little delay betwen 2 programmed delivery from depot to loader to unloader. Is the mod detect when there have not enough place for stack waiting trains, and dont programme any other delivery ?

From bottom to top: Depot, Loader, Loader, Unloader

The train in depot stay in depot, even if there have place in loader, but not in unloader. (I set a maximum limit trains to 3 in unloader), and even like that, trains stack below the loader (Or above the depot, as you want ^^)

Code: Select all

while($player->isAwake()) {
    $player->play('Factorio');
    if(!$player->isAwake()) {
        $player->awakening();
    }
}

It just starts deliverey when the station needs something, its not so dumb like normal factorio and stays in stacker, so in meantime your trains can be used somewhere else.
