Trains treat fuel as cargo?

Post by Blastodial »

I have found a train with "full cargo inventory" criteria seems to get stuck at a train station. The only reason I noticed was 1 solid fuel missing, and that stop was trying to add coal as fuel.

Solid fuel is an item. And therefore put into a cargo wagon. There are different wagons for fluid available.

my apologies. I had copied and pasted another train logic. The train was waiting to be empty while being filled up with barrels.
