Wildcard trains can't see tungsten icon

I have set up auto-trains like shown in here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoEOg0GisiI&t=68s

I'm on vulcanus and I have set up a drop-off station and a pick-up station for tungsten ore, but it doesn't get picked up (Every other ore thus far has been succesfully picked up). This setup basically works by checking the name of the stations and using the rich-text icon. To fix this in the meantime I told the network that the 2 stations are for iron ore and now it works. I'm on 2.0.13.

I also have coal stations on vulcanus and they work perfectly, so it must be that the wildcard doesn't check some items, like tungsten ore.

Thanks for the report, can you attach your save file? It makes bug verification easier in case it's a user error.

Sure, I have attached both the "fix" and the one with the names that don't work. The relevant interrupt is the second from the top.

Hi, thanks for the report,

I think you are meant to add the signal here, when I did that it started working:

So I think this it not a bug

Sorry to have wasted your time, I had completely misunderstood how that signal worked. I was so confused since it wasn't part of the drop-off and pick-up.
