[2.1.19] Manually stopped train switches to automatic when extended with additional wagon using ghost

Post by Usul »

A train that is parked in manual mode and is being extended with wagon ghosts, will automatically switch to automatic mode and resume it's shedule, as soon as the ghost of the first wagon, that connects to the existing train, is placed by a construction bot.

Steps to reproduce:
- Pick a train that is running a shedule
- Send it to a location to park it
- Set it to manual mode, so that it stands still at the chosen location
- Add some cargo wagon *ghosts* to the end of the train
- As soon as the first wagon placed by a bot connects to the train, it leaves
- Any further wagons arriving by bots slightly later, will be left behind standing on the rail

This does *not* happen (correct behaviour), when wagon is placed down manually!

This is a serious breach of obedience by the train. If a player wishes to extend a train, it must stay put and not leave in the midst of the process of extending it!

I read through the numerous duplicates and it baffles me that this is not considered a bug by Wube, with no rationale provided. I assume there will be even more reports on this issue after 2.1 is released as stable.
