Auto Cargo Terminals

Editor Note: Thank you all for trying it out! I didn't expect so many of you to use this mod. I made this mod mainly for myself to fix some of the things I found tedious, like setting up countless road lines for a steel factory. If you have any thoughts on improvements to the mod, I'd love to hear about it! I'll be monitoring the mod.io comments. Thanks again and happy transporting! :)

This mod picks the right terminals for your lines.

When you make a line or add a stop to one, its stops get the bays built for that cargo. A line with mixed cargo gets the universal bays.

Buttons

• Match cargo: all stops in the line panel fixes every stop of the selected lines.
• Match cargo on a stop row fixes only that stop. It takes the place of the Configure Stop button.

Buy Vehicles

Buy Vehicles on a line opens the store filtered to the line's cargo. With several cargo types you only see vehicles that carry all of them. Click a filter off to see more.

Settings

The box button at the top left opens the settings. Turn auto matching on or off per line type, and the Buy Vehicles filter. Each save keeps its own settings. Road is on by default. Rail, water and air are off. Without auto matching you can still use the buttons. Trains get the platforms where their wagons load fastest.

Safe to add to or remove from an existing save. The mod only changes which terminals your lines use.

Changelog

Fixes for game build 40420

• Fixed the crash when opening Buy Vehicles, and settings not saving. The game no longer lets mods write files, so settings now live in your save.
• Settings are per save. Each save keeps its own. Existing saves start from the defaults: road on, rail, water and air off.
• Stops added to a line whose cargo you set by hand now get matching terminals too.
