Trains Switch to Manual at Temporary Stops

by jeff.s

Automatically switch trains into manual mode when they arrive at a temporary stop (created by Ctrl+Click on the map in train menu). If you change the condition on the temporary stop to anything other than the default of "wait 5s", the train will NOT switch into temporary mode.

Don't know if this counts as a bug, but whenever it switches to manual mode, it will change the group of the train to unassigned, and wipe it's interrupts. And so if it is the only train in a specific group, or with some interrupts, they will get deleted and needs to be remade.

A lot of train schedule related mods currently have this problem, there is currently not way to handle interrupts via modding API and they just get discarded when you fiddle with the schedule.

from LuziferSenpai when working on the hitching mod:
A tip for everyone:
If you work with trains, group and schedules:
- ALWAYS REMOVE THE GROUP FIRST
- ALWAYS ADD THE GROUP LAST

Might want a chat with him to fix this mod

a temp fix is to have all interupts be a wait condition =/= 5s

Another option would be to change the ctrl+click behavor to make a temporary stop only wait 0s which triggers the auto manual. (dont know how easy that is, but it a suggestion)
