how many trains you got on that line?

I have about 20 trains there. I decided to throw it away though and start again and bigger. Anyway, I made a record there, I got a deadlock on that big loop, 13 trains in a cycle.

How did you get that map? RSO?

Low segmentation, Large water, All resources on very low frequency, richness: iron/copper big, stone/coal normal, oil very rich, size: iron/copper large, stone/coal/oil normal, biters large/rich/high frequency. And it landed on this one.

P.S. answered late, but better than never

Great tip on map generation, thx!

So i did it, i got to 56 trains when it started to jam up, not alot more i can do as my system just isnt big enough,



few tips,

-Always plan ahead with stations,
-Always make sure your stations are far enough part and long so trains can stack
-Make sure your network is massive, trains need space to stack and not get in each others way,
- lots of signals is key to having trains stack up on inter-changes
