RORO stations are about the best to use... but a hassle to set up. It's easier to place a standard station first and convert to RORO later in the game. RORO stations will not work if you have the "reverse at end of lines, and at stations" option enabled in the difficulty settings.
Siggy not gonna work unless someone allows javascripting...

that's not true, if you build them in the right way, they work perfectly ok, even with reverse at stations.

i don't know the functionality of "reverse at the stations" :lol:

i use always reverse at the end of a line, so if i build roro stations the trains have to go straight, and if i build terminus stations the trains reverse because is already the end of the line

well no matter which station U build -if U put a one-way signal on the entrance the train HAS to exit on the other side...

But can someone explain how that switch works (reverse at end of lines, and at stations) ?? in both cases.

Well they do just that - also they were in TTD so look in the manual.

but if you use one way signals in entrance your train gets completely stuck, because they use only the first platform

what if use ONLY one platform?
and how can it be completely stuck if the other side is open??
use a checkpoint if you must.
don't get it what you're saying...think we are both misunderstood :shock:
