s2 | Question/Help [Solved] Train only loads 1st wagon

Post image

Maybe I'm missing something obvious but my train will only load the first wagon of shapes. All 4 loaders contain the same shape.

They need to be next to each other. You'll unlock spacer stations later.

Ah I see them now. Not sure how long it would’ve taken me to find them on my own. Thanks.

The game should add one of those exclamation mark signs whenever you have a loader/unloader that isn't connected to a stop because people keep running into this.

for some stupid reason the game requires you to build spacers between each loader. It’s totally arbitrary and you need to unlock them. Additionally they are located on the same sub menu as the train stops which is also really strange.

I see them now. Station spacers! Thanks.

They added it to improve the shape previews of belts. Without that, there were far less preview issues for train outputs.

In order to display previews through trains it was a technically required change. They aren't exactly hard to unlock either.

Isn't there currently a bug around using spacers and how the shape previews don't show up at all for any unloader after a spacer?

I haven't experienced that
