Can't chose platforms at terminus stations

[ken.griff]

This is a weird one from the latest beta. I was building a basic two platform terminus station and was planning to route my train into the right platform.

But the little letter didn't appear for that platform so I couldn't set the route.

Hold Alt to force the game to show all the platform options when creating lines.

I'll try that. Any reason why it suddenly decided not to show me all my options?

The line editor UI looks at the direction signals (either on the platform itself, or on the track directly linked to the platform) to try to only show useful directions to the player. This is only at the UI level.

Is there any chance this logic will be made more intelligent at some point?

I encountered this just now in the following situation - wanting to select station D:

In this particular case it shows A and C, but neither of those make any sense, as the track to the northwest is blueprinted (and also not connected to anything once you go a little beyond the screenshot), so trains have no way of getting to A, and if a train stopped at C it would not be able to go anywhere afterwards. D is the only platform I can actually use, but it doesn't realise trains can take the branch from D to get to the correct side.

It should really show all directions unless it can prove that a direction is useless.

Thanks for the tip about Alt, that is working for me, though it's not at all obvious that you can do that and if it wasn't for this thread existing I would have had to stop playing after reporting this.
