How does the train pathfinder work in 0.15.40?

Hi,

I have 140 trains in my factory right now and I suffer from the fact that the pathfinder is not intelligent. I have several problems causing massive stop-go traffic and even complete jams when "what are you fucking doing here?!?!?!"-trains enter a station where they are not supposed to go. This happens not often, maybe once every 30 minutes. Still it causes a complete jam. It is a matter of 1-2 minutes until 100 trains are jammed all around the base if THAT happens.

I dont want to post 100 images of all of my problems, I just want to ask if there is a rule-set where I can read how the pathfinder works in the most recent 0.15 version, so I can implement dirty work-arounds to compensate for the lack of intelligence. To fix that a metal train enters an acid station where a idle train is waiting forever (because it has no job) might be impossible, if I dont want to just pick up the idling acid train.

Update to 0.16, that might fix your problems.

If you are having those problems in 0.15, I'm wondering whether you are experiencing viewtopic.php?t=54042 (Which is fixed in 0.16).
