[2.0.55] Fluid wagon misaligned on long trains - Prevents pump connection

Post by Arimodu »

So I just made a huge artilery train, and attached a fluid wagon at the end for flamer ammo, but the pump won't connect even when its in-station, and its obviously misaligned when I switch to manual and back the train up a little bit.

Train in station, wagon is not fully loaded, pump should be connected here

Train is in manual, backed up a little bit. Pump is pumping, but the asset is obviously misaligned. It is actually rather finicky to even get it connected.

Edit: Forgot to mention, this is running on a server, might be relevant, might not.
Save on the server has mods, but I reproduced on a save copy without any mods (other than space age, quality and elevated rails)

Thanks for the report. It's now that the train is long, it's that it's going through curves. This is a known limitation of fluid wagons and you simply can't have a train park through a curve if you want to use fluid wagons and pumps.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
