[0.9.4] Invisible wagon

[ssilk]

I had managed to place an invisible wagon. As you see in the save, the wagon wasn't visible, when you load it, it is visible.

How I did it: Places loco and then wagons in this inserter-area. In this case the wagons are not properly aligned one after another.

Thanks for the report, but tell me: where did you get the 0.9.5 version?

I was trying to reproduce without success. Did it happen randomly after a very long time of play, or are you able to reproduce it consistently?

I've had this happen two times in 0.9.3 , when i was making this insanely long train. I can't remember if the train was moving when i was placing wagons, but the wagon was placed and invisble. Saving and reloading made it visible. I couldn't reproduce it, and only happend twice on ehm.. 1600 wagons

Regards the wagon. Did it start to be visible when it was moved by the train or connected? Did it start to be visible when it got to curve?

[jeroon]

I'm pretty sure the train was stationary when it happened, and i don't think i tried moving the train. Will do when it happens again

Version 0.9.4 of course. you're too slow.

I don't think it was due to the long run.

I was placing the wagons by running (train standing still) and holding LMB. I remember the inserters immediately insert into the wagons, something was different and then I saw I placed 5 wagons, but saw only 4. When I mined away the wagons I saw, that the invisible wagon was placed between wagon 3 and 4.

This is another point: before that I set up many other trains and always the wagons 3 and 4 was placed much more near together, than 1, 2 and 3. Perhaps this is the reason, factorio wants to place another wagon.

If anybody is able to provide reproducible steps to achieve this, that would be fantastic

I did some fixes of wagon placing, so there is good chance this have been fixed. Let's move it to pending. Let me know if it happens in 10.0+ version anymore.
