I have an oil power plant that regularly shuts down because of lack of oil. I watched over it and what happens is trains enter it and never unload the oil to fill it to 100 even if they have enough. On the screenshot you can see 3 trains going from the plant all with oil left, but the power plant is loaded only to 43/100.

This is Crown Falls, and the oil harbor is on the other side of the island from the power plant. Maybe the distance somehow bugs the trains? 3 trains are not the cause, I tested with just 1 train going to the power plant with 100+ oil, and it also doesn't fill the plant to 100.

It feels like the trains are calculating how much to unload when they depart from the oil harbour, not when they arrive at the power plant.

Hey there,

Sorry to hear that trains are not delivering enough oil to fill the power plants.

Would it be possible to share with us a link to a video using a 3rd party video sharing website?

Many thanks,
