Several tractors one stop?
Point A have concrete, silica and crystal quartz and i need to ship it to point B, conveyers is a simple solution used it in the past sometimes more then 10 belts high but thought id use vehicles in my current playthrough.

The distance between point A and Point B is short so this will be a sort of a test track and i want to use 3 vehicles so how sophisticated is this game? does the vehicles need to be 100% separated or will the game adapt and stop a vehicle if another vehicle is loading?
Regards

Unless they changed something since Update 5, automated vehicles will absolutely queue for a station.

I am using lots of tractors in my current save, and many of them share the same roads and paths even if they ultimately go to different stations. I have noticed that they will stop for a stalled or waiting vehicle in front of them, whether it happens at a station or on a road/path.

Cant say im really impressed :/ sofar running a single vehicle and it fails to make one turn and then reverse into the ocean, then miss the turn again and runs full speed into the loading station and fails every time a present lands on the road.

the 6x6 can haul alot of cargo but the navigation seems awfully rough

Yes, I wish there was a better way to establish the path for the tractors/trucks, maybe something like how train tracks are laid down. Or at least allow us to edit the paths after they are created. Unless you drive the tractors very slowly and carefully, their paths easily can get rather wonky.

I have several vehicules in my current game and it has been running flawlessly for 24 hours. Thought you should know.

I haven't tried the Tractor yet in update 8 but the big trucks deliver when sending them to the same station.
Make sure you get rid of the path nodes that cause them to deadlock and you should be fine.

They resolve a lot of issues by teleporting around.

I dont use cars often, but I wonder if restricting them to driving on foundations would help some pathing issues I see people having
I mean if i follow them i see them crash and everything, but they just teleport after some time. They drive the route no matter what. At least in my experience.
