Post by lrac000 »

Step one: make an adaquit amound of idevidual stations. (make them as long as you can).

Step two: make shure that all the stations are close enough to the industry that they accept whatever the industry accepts.

Step three: when placeing way points for all of the trains that use that station, do not tell the train to stop at any indevidual station, but instead put the way point before the stations split appart. This might look funny becouse there is only one station for the train to stop at, but if the train is on local (not experess) it will stop at one of the stations you made and unload with out you telling it to.

Also, because you do not have the train set to go to induvidual stations you do not have to build a train yard for the trains to wait. One last thing this does NOT work for loading because you can not tell a train to wait for a 'full load' if there is not a spific station

We're still watching you. That means more replies that add nothing to a (dead) topic and you'll receive more warnings.
