How do you all name your train stations? I was using load/unload for a while but wanted shorter names. So I switched to in/out where “in” is a resource input that is deposited by train. This causes some confusion though people thinking “in” means putting stuff in the train. I’ve also been floating the idea of on/off for putting things on or taking them off the train.
I use rich text representation of the appropriate logistic chest and the product. Requester chests for consumers, provider chests for producers, buffer chests for marshaling areas, when I play railword with really long distances, and storage chests for “service stops” that doesn’t map clearly into one of the other three. My personal style is to have a number of trains dedicated to each provider. Thus, the provider stations keep their default names in addition to the rich text. The snip below should explain what the gist of it.
Ooooh, I think this one is the winner for me. Ignore words entirely just visually show what is going on. This is fantastic I didn’t realize I could even do that.
I switched to this as well, just the other way round. Sorted by resource, then provider/requester. I never thought about adding comments to the end though, I should start doing that with additional info (number of belts or just flavor - or location).
