Help with signal.

Post by Urbs »

Can anyone help pinpoint why my copper plate train will not pull into this middle station?

I was able to determine it's this spot causing it. Just not sure why.

Looks like the curved rail leading into it isn't connected to the one coming off the main rail line - it's one block too north. You can see this when mousing over the one coming from the main line - look at the yellow arrows.

You can either move the entire station one block down, or move the incoming rail line one block up.

That is odd... it worked for a while until i added the top stone station.

Well moving it down 1 rail worked. Is that some kind of limitation of the game engine?

Not really you just didn't build it correctly in the first place! Would need to see the track layout from before it broke to work out why it worked though.
