Space Schedules

Post by majik1213 »

TL;DR. Just like trains can be part of a group schedule, do the same for space platforms.

What? If you have multiple trains loading/unloading a similar resource, they can be part of the same group to have the same schedule. When you change the schedule, all of the trains adopt the new one if they're in that group. Do the same for space platforms.

Why? To let space platforms be consistent with how trains behave since they basically are space trains with no railroad track anyways.

What that URL is supposed to tell you is this:

There is already a thread about this.
You didn't have to create a new one.
Please use the search function next time, and respond to existing posts.
They will be brought to the top of the forum all the same, except there are already additional comments that say they want that thing.

Just... without being an asshat about it.
It's certainly not meant to be taken as "Look, someone else also wanted this, how great!"

Honestly, I am not even trying to make a point to the Post Author - they have already demonstrated that they are not going to read 3394 Read this before making suggestions!. So why even discuss it with those who won’t read and follow instructions?

The rationale is to make it easier for a Moderator to Merge the Threads containing duplicate suggestions.

If suggestions are wanted, treating people like this is not good. Someone took time out of their day to make a post only to be disrespected and told that they were supposed to do a bunch of work.

Suggestions are wanted most likely AFTER reading the thread called "read before posting a suggestion"
