[0.15.30] Inserters fail to refuel trains

[StrikeAgainst]

Hi Team,
since what I think was the last update of the game, I suddenly quite frequently encountered the problem with my trains running out of fuel on-track. Further checking back on this I found out that the inserters at the train stops that are supposed to refuel the trains with coal/solid fuel simply refuse service for whatever reason. I'll attach a short video that should illustrate my problem. I hope you will be able to reproduce the problem, I'm not sure how this is happening...

Thanks

Thanks for the report. Is the train actually stopped at that station or is it in automatic mode and trying to drive forward?

If you still think it's a bug post the save please.

@Rseding91
From what I checked, the train is actually stopped. It actually would have been refueled earlier, I don't think it would completely run out of fuel before making one run between its stations.

Done, you can get it from my Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/umgi3udcdwswuc5/AFS.zip

You've set the train up so it never waits long enough to refuel

• Train goes to pickup copper and because the inserters at copper have no power it never loads, waits 60 seconds and goes back to base to unload
• Train arrives back at base with empty cargo wagons, stops for 1 tick and leaves again never giving the refuling inserter any time to add fuel

The train is currently trying to drive to "StoneOn" which means it's no longer stopped at "StoneOff" which means inserters will not interact with it.

You can fix it by adding and "AND" condition to the "StoneOff" stop of "time: 5 seconds" so the train waits at lest 5 seconds at the "off" stop giving time for fuel to be loaded.

Oh dammit, my bad, I actually forgot to reprogram that train, it was basically useless all the time
But IIRC this problem also affected some of my other lines... I'll check back on this thread once that should occur again.
Anyway, thanks for now
