Multi Combined lines? – Train Fever /forums/topic/multi-combined-lines/feed/ Wed, 30 Apr 2025 12:35:58 +0000 https://bbpress.org/?v=2.6.13 en-US /forums/topic/multi-combined-lines/#post-16768 <![CDATA[Multi Combined lines?]]> /forums/topic/multi-combined-lines/#post-16768 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 19:20:48 +0000 PresFox Hello,

 

In the middle of 4 mines (2x iron, 2x coal), i put down a cargo station and a truck stop, then i proceeded to add 4 lines, one from each mine, to the center station / truck stop.

Then i connected the station to another one near a steel mill.

However, no goods are transported at all, is this even possible?

Regards

Still nothing happens, and line usage still says no on all mines and the steel mill.

More vehicles means lower waiting times.

 

There is a hard coded time limit of 20 minutes before each good crate must reach its destination. That includes time spent from the mine to the station, waiting at station, unloading, moving it to the second loading bay, waiting for a truck there  (THIS is what is killing your line, btw), loading etc, etc…..

 

When doing complex lines like that (transferring goods to a second line), you must take into account all the waiting times possible.

Please check if you did that. They have a different icon.

You’ve to delete them first.

Otherwise, the industries will not use your line. (the same happen if your road is a detour)
