i Train Loader ?

4 years ago
(updated 4 years ago)

I wanted to ask if there is a possibility to load trains as well.

It says that he can't do it because there is no good way to do it but the mod is a bit older.

Maybe there is a way with version 1.0, because a lot has changed over the years.

Nope, loaders still cannot natively interact with trains at all; this is a limitation of the game engine. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/miniloader uses invisible inserters, which works around this issue and allows use with trains.

Hello! What prevents to do like in a mini-loader mod?

There is a UPS hit using inserters over loaders.

I have done some benchmark testing the picture points at a table of my results.

Nothing. But as long as Miniloaders exists I see no point in replicating it. You can use Miniloaders with DSB if you like, just turn DSB's loaders off in options and use Miniloaders instead.
