This simple mod prevents trains from switching to automatic mode when a locomotive or wagon is added using ghosts.

This fixes an issue that occurs when you need to remotely replace multiple destroyed locomotives or wagons. Without this mod, the train switches to automatic mode as soon as the first wagon has been built, causing it to drive away before the remaining ghosts can be completed.



Features

  • Toggle the fix at any time using the shortcut button or a configurable hotkey.
  • Automatically enables the fix whenever a locomotive or wagon is destroyed. This behavior can be disabled in the mod settings.

Planned Features

  • Automatically switch the train back to automatic mode once its original configuration has been fully restored.
  • Prevent the fix from applying to trains built from blueprints.
  • Advanced filter options to choose which trains should be protected from switching to automatic mode.
  • An indicator that shows when a switch to automatic mode has been prevented.
  • Option to allow only admins to toggle the fix.
