Cannot go to train stop with curve imm. after stop

Post by garath »

Can someone please confirm this is a bug?

Steps:

1. Place a curved section of track immediately after a train stop.
2. Tell a train to go to that stop.

Expected behavior: It visits the stop.

Actual behavior: No Path.

Resolution:

1. Remove the curved rail immediately after the train stop.
2. Replace curved rail with straight rail.

Now, the train has no trouble visiting the stop.

Thanks!

This has been reported before, but I can not remember the outcome and can not find the topic.

It would be a lot easier to confirm if you provide the save with the "no path" error.

the problem is you are adding a curve where the station is. place the track first then the station.

[edit] the devs should make it impossible to place a bend there to prevent this condition.
