Factorio train signals full#

Send this signal to a station to give trains an 'imaginary' cargo to pickup. Otherwise, the train will deliver to the closest stop with space available. The more types accepted, the higher the priority. Cargo is 'accepted' by a Demand station if the station receives a negative (-) signal of that Cargo equal to or greater than the amount in the train. Trains will prioritize stations based on how many types of the train's cargo they accept. Send this signal to a station to denote it as Requester/Demand station. Note that refuelling orders simply have a 5 sec inactivity condition set, rather than copying something from another schedule. The refuelling threshold is identical to TCS's. If so, the train is Registered for Refuelling, and will seek out a refuel stop in the same network. Send this signal to any station to check if trains that leave it need refueling. The station still needs to receive a refuel signal to have a network. Refuel Signal (TCS)Īny station with the Refuel Signal in its name will become a refuel stop, independently of receiving any signals. A train's network is based on the depot signal it received, which must be in the same network as any Demand Station (denoted by the skip signal) to deliver to it.

Upon leaving a station, the train cargo is checked, and depending on mod settings, may immediately attempt to deliver its cargo. Any train that leaves a station receiving the Depot Signal will be Registered for Delivery, unless it contains no cargo (fluid/item). Send this signal to station to denote it as a Provider/Supply station. SCT uses the Virtual Signals added by Klonan's Train Control Signals mod (TCS), together with three of vanilla Factorio's Virtual Signals. Trains will prioritize refueling first, then delivering their current cargo, then picking up additional loads. (I would have called it virtual cargo, but a friend insisted for the sake of a math joke that trains can deliver Complex cargo loads, and internally this is essentially a delivery with the signs flipped.) Last is a refuelling operation, which can be used in place of Train Control Signal's refuel stops if desired. Second is a pickup, where are trains are given an 'imaginary' cargo, and seek out station receiving the depot signal together with positive signals for that cargo. There are three types of routing the mod can perform: First is a delivery, where trains have cargo, and are routed to a stop with the skip signal receiving negative signals for that cargo. The insertion position can be altered using signals. By default, SCT will copy the conditions of the station currently in the insertion position and use it for the newly-inserted station as well.

SCT does not control the full train schedule it only inserts a new station (+ a temporary stop), when an order is made, and removes it once done. Signal Controlled Trains (SCT) is based on the premise that trains already have cargo and just need to be routed to the correct stop. This mod does not work with disabled stops Use Train Limits instead. Includes an option to automatically add refuelling stops to train schedules. Send trains to stations receiving signals that match the train's cargo, or use signals to send a train to pickup cargo. 1.1.1 (a month ago) Factorio version: 1.1 Downloaded by: 162 users Signal Controlled Trains
