Ok I have a coal mine, a power plant and 5 coal transfer bins. The transfer bins are all in a row. The consist is about 35 cars long I want it to go load the coal, Unload the first 20 at the power plant, then unload the car 21, 22, 23 at the first bin, 24, 25, 26 at the 2 bin....

Now it picks up just fine from the coal mine. and drops off just fine at the power plant. But when it gets to the coal bins it tries to unload the empty cars too. And since the consist is so long that is way to much time. Is there any way to just get it to unload the full cars? Hell it even tried to unload the engine.

I think you're going to have to write a script to do that like the UncouplezFrom script that lets you uncouple at a specific car number.

One word: Trackmarks.

Yea I tried track marks. but the enginier (and the surveyor) is stupid.

I think I am just going to scrap the whole bin idea and switch to a more modern transfer system. Using the basic coal dump and a basic loader next to it. Now just to figure out how to balance the coal from one to the other.
