Also, the train limits get set dynamically based on the number of loads available in the chests at the station. If it has enough to load (or unload) one train, then the limit is set to 1. If it’s storing 4 train-loads it is set to 4. (Although there is a max override in case there are only two local waiting branches.In multiplayer: 1) if you change the Train Limit value for a station, the "Last user" value does not change. 2) Enable/Disable train limit - "…May 21, 2022 · Output : L (your number of trains allowed). So for 12 full copper plate chests, it will be 57600 unit / 8000 = 7,2 so 7 trains allowed. The train station will read L, and it will be 7, so your train limit will be 7. Half empty, 28800 / 8000 = 3,6 --> L = 3 (meaning you could load at least 3 full trains with 2 wagons. Factorio version: 0.13 - 0.15 Downloaded by: 16 users.

So combinator 1outputs L when plastic is greater than or equal 16,000, combinator 2 outputs L when greater than or equal 32,000, combinator 3 is 48,000, etc. Hope this helps a bit and good luck. 0.Destination full problem. Sometimes my trains give the 'destination full' messeage and get stuck when on their way to a station. I have an ore mine with no train limit and a smelter with a limit of 1. The smelter station disables when the station has enough ore. This somehow sometimes makes trains get stuck while on the way to the smelter.Re: Train station limit using circuits - deal with problem of decrease while loading. by JayS » Wed Feb 17, 2021 10:47 pm. It seems like a simple fix to the potential race condition (TBD if it is even a problem, will test later) would be to subtract 1 from the train limit once the train is almost full, e.g. if it has more than 7.9k ore or so.Posts: 27.

If you set a train limit on the stops to 1, it will force each train to reserve its depot stop before returning. You just have to make sure that you have either equal or more stops than trains.FACTORIO MASTER CLASSThis series of Tutorials and How To Guides help you become a better Factorio EngineerEach video serves as a beginner's guide but also co...A train with a station with a limit set to 0 (or less than the number of trains already headed there) will wait where it is for the station to open (by the limit raising back above number of trains headed there). If the train is already enroute to the station, it'll continue as pathed to the station and then continue the schedule normally.Traffic systems should avoid having trains waiting on crossings and in Factorio, ... The station can only have one incoming train without causing issues, so it should have its train limit set to 1 or only one train should be routed to it. An alternative is creating a waiting area for trains heading to the station, see further below. ...Then nerf barrels to 100 capacity, and a stack size of 5. (Capacity of 50 and stack size of 10 would also work). That would mean a full wagon of barrels would only hold 20k. To me it is strange that a normal cargo wagon holds more fluid in barrels, and weighs only a third as much, than a special purpose oil tanker.The core problem is that the maximum train limit on a station is coupled to the amount of space and track I designated as waiting area. If I set the train limit higher than what the waiting area can hold, trains will back up outside the station. ... In factorio every area is getting equally better the further from the starting position you go.level 1. Pulsefel. · 1 yr. ago. you can combine stackers and train limits rather easily. as long as your stacker only has 1 less slot then your limit no trains will occupy it outside the max. so a 4 limit station would use a 3 train stacker. if your station needs more trains just add slots. branch type mega bases find this easy. block type ...Trying to incorporate train limits. Basically followed this guide. I see my circuit network calculates needing 2 trains. The train limit gets set to 2 (shown) but mousing over the train limit always shows 'train limit: 0/2'. Any ideas why this might be happening? Only one train even goes to this station so why would it be stuck at 0/2?Train stops can send the contents of the circuit network to the train to use it for wait conditions, as well as enable/disable the stop itself. The maximum amount of trains that can go to the train stop ("train limit") can be set by the circuit network. Default: Set Limit = Train stops can be enabled on a logistic network condition. If that is how your stations are behaving than there is something very amiss. The LTN lamp outputs GREEN=1 when there is no train scheduled or stopped, YELLOW=N when there are trains scheduled but no train stopped yet, and BLUE=N when there is a train stopped. In the case of YELLOW and BLUE, N represents the number of trains currently scheduled ...I have a train station that loads iron into a train for export, and imports coal from a different train. I have this problem where iron is being loaded into the coal train. Is there a way I can place a logistics filter on the wagon to stop iron from coming in?I am coming back to Factorio after a long break. I am trying to setup a train network where the unload station has its train limit set to 0 when it cannot take a fully loaded train (not enough chest storage).

Hi, i watched Nilaus explaining the Factorio Engineering series block based train network. and tried to reverse engineer the city block layout as there are currently no blueprints provided. It is a bit hard as no tile grid is ever enabled in this video. Map view.Train limit of loading stations is as many as trains can be completely filled by the station buffer chests (usually 0..4) Train limit of depots is the number of lanes of the depot waiting area. Train limit of unloading stations is 2 if at least 1 train can be fully unloaded, 1 otherwise. So always at least 1 train is at the station.When optimizing a train path, e.g. after doing some change to the layout of the rail network, it would be really useful to be able to reorder train stops in the train's schedule. Currently, one has to delete a stop and then re-create it and hopefully not screw up the conditions. Instead, there should be buttons "up" and "down" next to the list ...Trains in vanilla Factorio are quite useful, especially since the train limit feature was introduced. There are, however, some areas in which they fall short. Dealing with many trains can be tedious in the default UI. Sometimes you want or need smarter control over train behavior, especially when playing mods that introduce complex recipes and ...Jan 2, 2016 · Train limits. Works based off of the train limit set on the train stop in the same way it does in vanilla Factorio. Only a number of trains up to the train limit will be allowed to dispatch to the station by the central planner. Useful to reduce the need for train stackers and to prevent deadlocks. Disable the "stone load 1" station and set its limit to 0 until it has a full load of stone ready.[1] This can also handle multiple priorities. [1] Disabling the station allows trains to skip over "stone load 1". If you don't disable the station and just set "stone load 1"'s limit to 0, then the train will stay (block) at "stone drop" .Jan 2, 2016 · Train limits. Works based off of the train limit set on the train stop in the same way it does in vanilla Factorio. Only a number of trains up to the train limit will be allowed to dispatch to the station by the central planner. Useful to reduce the need for train stackers and to prevent deadlocks. Using the train limit function is ofcourse a totally valid way to do it. The downside is, you need a couple a combinators per station to set the limit dynamically. While open/closing a station and the dummy station use none.Vanilla solution to making all trains only refuel when fuel is low + bonus tip. Ok so after some testing i can confirm this works. If you give every train its own refuelstation and create a timer for each one, you can actually enable the station only when the timer reaches a certain point. For example, if you use rocket fuel you can create a ...The train stop displays a limit off 1/1, the output of the train id reads 0, the cargo wagon is closed, meaning the train isn't at the station. What did you expect to happen instead? Given that the train is neither at the station nor pathing towards it, i expected the train limit to switch to 0/1. This would allow the train to reenter the ...Jan 30, 2022 · If the train to R2 was still in transit, it might block the path to R4, making this a deadlock. ===== 4 stations providing gears 8 stations receiving gears. P stations have a train limit of 5. R stations have train limit of 1. Due to how the train station is setup on the receiver, I have some belts between the station itself and local storage. In any given game of Factorio, sooner or later, you will run out of resources in your starting area. ... The train limit feature was not present in 1.0 when I wrote this (which is why it's not in any of the screenshots), but controlling many-to-many networks in this way is beyond the scope of this guide. xYF Apr 2 @ 7:01amSpeaking of size, the train length that will have the best time on those rails is 6 but nothing stops you from using other lengths. 2, 3 & 12 are just behind. Everything is kept highly upgradeable. There also is a set of wall blueprints to protect your rails from natives. On top of that, you can find stations for all train sizes from 2 to 12 ...With the new function of train stops having the capability to limit the number of trains that can go to it, you can also do something that would have been impossible without. In 1.1, when you disabled a train stop using circuits, all trains pathing to it would instantly repath. However, when you set the train limit to 0 (effectively disabling ...So the problem is that of those 30 ups a lot is used for trains (using the 'time-usage' tool ingame). A guy did a performance test for me: This test says that 8.3 ups is used to move the trains. Almost every other megabase i've seen uses a lot less than that. There are 327 trains on the map with 3 different sizes (3loc-10w-3loc, 2loc-4w-2loc ...In Factorio, signals can be placed on the track, breaking it into blocks, which help to control and manage the network. ...

If you set a train limit on the stops to 1, it will force each train to reserve its depot stop before returning. You just have to make sure that you have either equal or more stops than trains.The train limits are per train stop (so independent of their name). Having a limit of 2 means that at max 2 trains can be on their way to that station (trains stopped at the station also count here). So you have done everything right.

If each station has a train limit equal to the stacker size, you can have too many trains try to park here (unless the sum of all limits is equal or less than the stacker ...What we actually want is P + R - 1. That guarantees that there will always be an empty stop for a train to go to after it finishes loading or unloading. And it means that you'll have as many stops as possible actively loading and unloading. Idle trains mean you're underproducing (bad) or overproducing (good).There are pretty straightforward in this case but they can get way more complex. In the case of setting train limit according to available product, use an arithmetic combinator and use the / to divide the input (probably want the yellow star or the specific item you are supplying in the left box) and the number of items per train in the right box. On the station set the set limit condition to ...This depot should only store the long trains. picture 1.jpg. That is why I connected all of the depots with a combinator, which sends the following signals: max train length = 18. min train length = 18. max train number = 2. picture 2.jpg. The problem: the depot is approached not only by the long trains, but also by the short ones.A train won't move forward even for a single tick if it's waiting on a red signal. So I could turn all signals of occupied stations red. Then set the train limit of empty stations to 1 and check if any double booking occur. If so disable one of the stops for a tick so the train looses interest. Same time drop the train limit of all stations ...When a train attempts to go to an enabled stop, it first checks to see if the stop has a "train limit" set. This limit specifies the maximum number of trains allowed to go to this station. Usually the problem of overdelivery is caused by 2 things: Double requests or overloading requests. Double requests are typically caused by train deadlocks. A train gets stuck, the delivery times out and LTN reissues it. You clear the deadlock and send the train on it's way and it completes the delivery.Simple fluid handling tips for new Factorio players -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/jamsqueThe train heading back to dispatch does not count against LTN's station limit. More generally speaking, LTN limits stations from appearing in schedules if they have their limit count of trains scheduled to go to them. As soon as a train departs though it stops occupying a scheduling slot even if the station still appears somewhere in it's ... I want to set train station limit to 0 if total sum of either Repair Packs or Ammo goes below 500 for example, while at the same time counting repair packs and ammo separately. For example: Repair Packs: 1000 / Ammo: 400 <--- Sets train limit to 1 Repair Packs: 400 / Ammo: 1000 <- Sets train limit to 1Trains - how to automate. I have 2 stations , one in my base and one in a oil area. The simplest way is to use the "inactive for X seconds" trigger - Maybe give it a "X seconds or less" as well to keep them running. Then you've got issues with (lack of) signals or the trains can't find a path to the station at all. :)The idea I have is to use deciders to set train limits based on the amount of material in the chests, but because the same structure will be used for iron, copper, uranium, etc., I want to use a constant combinator to simply output one material and have all the deciders managing train limits based on the constant combinator's output.What this will do is allow the train stop to send a signal containing the content of the train that is stopped into the wire that connect it to the inserter, and this inserter is only active when the signal is "coal less than 50 ". So when an empty train arrive, the inserter will load coal, the number of coal in the signal will increase as the ...FACTORIO MASTER CLASSThis series of Tutorials and How To Guides help you become a better Factorio EngineerEach video serves as a beginner's guide but also co...The console is Factorio's in-game command-line ... marking map locations in chat or adding icons to map markers and train stations.

Vanilla solves 90% of the problems in a train network for vanilla factorio, so in an almost ...Re: Add simple train stop priorities on top of 1.1 train limit system. Instead of measuring train “count,” you could look at the number of red signals on the stacker to find the number of trains that won’t repath away. I know this doesn’t do as much as the suggestion, but I thought it might be helpful.The later requires placing train stops on both sides of the tracks so the train stops between the two regardless of which direction it comes from. That works well until one wants to add a train limit to the stops. For example train limit = 1. Because you really don't want a train coming in the way the already present train wants to leave.Disable the "stone load 1" station and set its limit to 0 until it has a full load of stone ready.[1] This can also handle multiple priorities.

It is pretty simple, as good solutions typically are. You can set a 'Trains limit' in the train stop GUI, and the train stop keeps track of how many trains are in the station or on their way to it, which we call a reservation. See moreThe train configuration limits would open as extra window whenever you open the train stop UI. If any train configuration is set for the stop then the min/max train size signals will be ignored. You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.Factorio. Unloading a train with circuits. Wat this actually does is when one block of chests is full the cargo will be unloaded onto the belt if the other chests still have some space. More wagons will be a little bit difficult but that is not my intention (for now but with this solution it is also quite difficult if not impossible).The standard I normally follow is you add 1 locomotive to each head per 4 wagons, so you have a 2-4-2, 3-8-3, 4-12-4 and so on. When I'm doing asymmetric heads, I just convert locomotives into wagons and I get a 2-6-1, 3-12-1, 4-18-1 and so on.
