Loading Trains [0.9.1]

Post by Darthlawsuit »

So one of my trains is out of fuel and my feeder cannot give the train any fuel. I also noticed that none of the other inserters are working at pulling goods out of the cargo wagons. I think when the train is out of fuel and "trying" to move it is still marked as moving so nothing can be inserted or taken out. It makes it impossible to add fuel into it as well to allow it to move.

Well, this is the way it was designed, to avoid not moving train (waiting on signal or stopped for other reason) to not interact with stations.

I suggest some display on the trains to show that:

- Yellow blinking: In automatic mode
- Blinking yellow and blue: In automatic mode, halting at a train stop, loading possible
- Blinking blue: Halted, non-automatic, loading possible

Or similar, to distinct these modes.
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

Ok, I changed it, that the fuel can be inserted when it is not moving (in station/waiting on signal/out of fuel).
Cargo wagons are still accessible to inserters only in station.

Fixed for 0.9.2
