Thank you so much for working on this mod!

While you are waiting for LTN, I suggest my option.
This is not a fix, but a full-fledged mod from scratch.

Work is still underway, including the design of the mod page. I was in a hurry to make a release, even I haven't played much yet, so there may be bugs and some flaws.

How is the work with the mod going?

It's going quite well so far, I have my best people working on it.

Just a little update on the progress thus far.
We have made good progress on getting everything compatible with 2.0
However, we have been running into some tougher issues and are trying to get those resolved.
LTN is currently loading into 2.0 but frequent crashes are still happening and we trying to get it all sorted out.
A lot has changed in 2.0 with regards to the rail system itself and that is proving to be a bit of a puzzle to solve.
Still not providing a end date or even the garanty that we will be able to get it done, but I still wanted to let you know that we are still working on it.

I haven't read the mod page yet and I know it's going to be better than LTN, mainly because it has a gui and I don't think LTN did. (Even if LTN had a GUI, it certainly wasn't that good)

Hi! I signed up just to say how impressed I am with the community of this game and what they do!

I really loved LTN, and I really liked the alternative you're making for version 2.0.

I wish you success and hope that you will be able to realize what you are planning!

What kinds of problems are you having?

[Diablo]

What kinds of problems are you having?

One of the issues is that It seems that virtual signals have changed, and we are in the process of figuring out how to get LTN to function with these changes.

Like how parameters doesnt exist for get_control_behaviors, or actually using the signal?

Made some more progress over the weekend.
It's proven a lot harder that enticipated.
But progress was made non the less.
Lots has change with the rail system.

Keep you posted.

EDIT:

Update, well I may have spoken to soon.
Just got word that updating LTN is a no go for now.

The API documentation is lacking some crucial info for us to process at this time.

Hopefully if the documentation gets updated (or if someone knows how to set a count for a virtual signal in the new system) then we might revisit.

This looks interesting, and simpler than LTN. One question though... does it support mixed items coming to or from a station? I know people recommended against doing that in LTN, but it's actually not a problem with a correct design, and is a REALLY powerful feature to have.

Hello.
Stations can either request or offer multiple items. They can also request and offer at the same time.
However, one delivery can only deliver one type of item at a time. The groundwork for composite deliveries has been made, but not completed.
