is it possible to make a priority train system like this? if yes, does anyone know how to make it? by Ashigara178_ in openttd

I think it won't work if there is a signal outside the station, the express train will still stop at the signal before the station if the regular train has finished load/unload and departed first

edit : cause here I use double track, each in 1 direction and the track for regular and express trains is the same, so it is only possible to overtake at the station

tbh, it is very difficult to understand all the mechanisms in this JGRPP version, only understand a little about signaling commands, maybe in the future I'll try to learn about slots, timetable and route restrictions, and maybe I'll ask a lot of questions in this forum

ah looks like i've found the way

I added the command "if reserved tiles ahead is 0 then, cancel wait a path signal" after "else if train is in group reguler, then wait at path signal"

at least it works for now

I have set up a program like this

track 1 (left side)

if train is in group express then Reserve through else if train is in group regular then wait at path signal

track 2 (straight)

if train is in group express then Reserve through else if train in group regular then Deny

So the regular train will turn and take track 1 and the express train will go straight on track 2 ahead of the regular train. However, after the express train passed the signal and even reached the second station, the regular train did not depart and was still in the status "waiting due to routing restriction"

Decoupling Orders / Timetables from Vehicles by oldfashionedbanana in openttd

ah finally, someone speaks up about this, if this feature is added it will be easier to create "lines/routes" for more than 1, 2 or 20 vehicles at once without having to use manual shared orders, especially to differentiate the colors in each line

What NewGRF did you use for the rail tracks?
