What did you do?
I built a Constant combinator and a Display Panel
I connected them with a wire
In Display Panel options window I clicked "Add new Message" 6 times
In new message 6th row (the one before last) I clicked most right field (the one with tooltip "constant number")
Field under "Or set ...

And I thought that solution to this was just to set limit equal to zero when enable/disable checkbox is selected. Is there any chance to get some insight on why this is more complicated than that?

But anyway, thanks for fixing this. I was really anticipating this change. Early game becomes so much ...

Quite contrary, i see a lot of reasons for not doing it, which is making sure that schedule conditions like "station X not full" work correctly because if there would be 2 trains that depart a train stop at the same time because station X was not full, when there was only 1 empty slot, one train ...

Thanks for explaining that. That's not a bug then. I guess there's no way to filter out damaged items. No matter, monitoring the factory always was always part of the game.

Happens on [2.0.32]. Attaching screenshot and save. My muppet is standing right next to the faulty inserter.
I noticed that this happens when one ingredient in assembler is missing. I was able to reproduce that issue this way.

Presumably you had "Trash unrequested items" enabled (otherwise this would have done nothing). "Trash unrequested" does not mean "trash anything over the maximum" because anything over the maximum is *always* trashed regardless of whether "Trash unrequested" is enabled or not - it means "trash ...

Great, thank you.

To whom it may concern.

Just came across this issue. I quickly added some requests for boilers as "from 0 to inf" with goal of refactoring my power plant. I wanted to prohibit robots from immediately taking away picked up machines. Well, it didn't work. I had to manually set the maximum limit to ...

What did you do?
I opened Train Stop window and moved it so that part of the window was off-screen

What happened?
Window jumped from off-screen when there were no more trains going to selected station.
Window did not move when a train appeared.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might ...

I made a different workaround I used since 1.1 era.
More details here: 124948: [2.0.28] Automatic artillery train


I tried adding an extra station. I placed it, looked at it, and decided that I either find something I can look at... Or play something else while waiting for a fix. So yeah, I ...

Workarounds with setting limit to zero no longer works. My train is permanently stuck at train stop.

I experienced something like this, too.
It turns out you need to let triggers add "Artillery / Fire Position" to schedule. It doesn't work when schedule with duplicates is created manually. It ...

I would not expect changing the train limit of a station to have any effect on a train already en route to the station or at it. Take the example of a mine that has the simple condition of "ore > threshold, 1L". If it worked like you want it to the train would leave as soon as it had loaded enough ...

Maybe screenshot will help. I meant that if I explicitly set station limit to 0 with a circuit, the train leaves the station and goes to the next one as expected. I'm completely ignoring enable/disable because it doesn't help with anything. That's my workaround for now. Unfortunately, it requires a ...

[...]
I also attempted the following:

[...]
Use "set station limit to 0/1" to enable/disable stations



Weird... In my case setting limit to 0 with a combinator caused the train to depart. But I'm planing vanilla. One FFF mentioned that "enable/disable" was supposed to be the same as ...

Yeah, that part about enable and limit comes from https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-395:
So in 2.0, disabled trains stops will act as if they have 'Train limit = 0':

I hope that it is bugged because I really don't want to place a solar panel and a battery at every station just to send an L ...

Search in upper right is consistent with many other windows in Factorio. But having a text input closer to other controls would make the UI easier read.

When a train is at a disabled station (or limit = 0)


Did you actually try setting limit to 0? Because in my tests enable/disable doesn't change station limit. Disabled station displays limit as 0/None which is not the same as when I set limit to 0.

Just disabled

If the station the train is at is disabled/has train limit 0 (which are the same as of 2.0), it will still not move and the bug still occurs.


I thought so too, but it seems to not be true. Limit for disabled station is 0/None which is very different from a station with limit 0/0. Moreover ...
