Need: Offload Instruction at Stations – Train Fever /forums/topic/need-offload-instruction-at-stations/feed/ Wed, 30 Apr 2025 12:47:59 +0000 https://bbpress.org/?v=2.6.13 en-US /forums/topic/need-offload-instruction-at-stations/#post-8874 <![CDATA[Need: Offload Instruction at Stations]]> /forums/topic/need-offload-instruction-at-stations/#post-8874 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 11:40:42 +0000 Timbo Simple set up:

Forest (Wood) —> Sawmill (Goods) —> Town 1

Train 1 takes wood to sawmill

Train 2 takes goods to Town 1

 

Works perfectly well.

Until you realise, that because the Forest is near a Town, Town 2, and that Train 1 is taking goods from the sawmill to Town 2, which it drops off before picking up the next load of wood..

You cannot instruct Train 1 not to pick up goods. The only options a line has are Load if available, Full load (any), and Full load (all). I don’t want to load, I want to instruct the train to only Offload.

The wagons the trains use can carry both goods and wood. Which is a second problem behind this issue.

 

Needs a fix? Or have I missed something glaringly obvious?

This issue is preventing me from doing so.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Other solution would be to optimize the other town’s goods supply, so it becomes a better goods offer than the sawmill is providing (and thus stopping the problem at hand).
