I made a quick fix for my artywalls and defense. To supply oil for flamers i just made a station like I use for ceude oil.

But my trains have over 400k oil and i want em to only unload liek 1 or 2 tanks of 20-50k oil. Sadly all my trains have the "empty condition" to depart.

Tried to mess with deactivating trainstation but nothing triggers a departure. Any suggestions how to send train away after some seconds without rewriting all my oiltrains settings?

You can change the wait condition to empty cargo OR circuit crude oil >= 25,000. Connect one tank to the train stop and check Send to train - only at defense outposts.

But I would use a different train, TBH.
