I love Factorio. Lately, I've been hating Factorio trains. Signals make no sense.
It took me a long time to get signals to sort-of work in factorio.
Did you learn anything you could pass on? Every "tutorial" I read or watch just keeps talking about zones, but nothing explains why trains can't find a path to the destination when some signals are omitted.
I suspect there's something involving signals going in the opposite direction that influence the internal logic, but that's not explained anywhere I have found yet. I spend so much frustrating and un-fun time dicking around with the stupid trains.
