Is this possible?

I would like to have my industries request product delivery at a rate of my choosing. For example, every 24 hrs, every 48 hours, etc.

I am using the M.I.N. to set up the requirements. When the industry has consumed all it's inventory on hand, I would like it to issue a waybill for another delivery.

I can calculate this manully but can't get the program to make it happen.

For instance:
An industry requires a shipment of 4 cars of barley every 24 hrs.
(4 cars of 84,000 cap = 336,000).

Setting the M.I.N. to consume 14,000 units every hour would empty the industry in 24 hrs.

What are the proper M.I.N. setup peramenters and more of a problem is how to get a waybill generated only when the industry is empty and have a waybill issued for another 336,000?

I hope this makes sense and someone can offer I solution. Thanks.
 
The M.I.N is setup to consume a 'given' amount in 30 seconds cycle, so you would have to recalculate your amounts and adjust accordingly.

24 hours? That's one long game session, the longest I have ever played for straight is 6 hours. ;)

Also, the waybills are done by script, when the industry runs low it will issue a waybill for a certain amount, this differs from industry to industry.
 
The goal is to set up a continuous never ending session. When I'm tired of operating I would simply save the session and then pick up again at a later time.

If the waybill generator is run from a script, is it possible to edit?

I guess what I need is to figure out how to have a waybill generated only when the industry's inventory reaches zero.
 
You can have a continuous running session no matter which way you do it, I have a session, well I did until TRS2006 decided to go nuts on me a I lost all custome content I had installed. But anyway I had a session that I had been playing for over 72 hours in total, play for a few hours, save, reload and play some more, save, reload...

From memory, I had about 18 trains running around the layout, picking up products and delivering them to industries, I never got a chance to drive, too busy looking after the other drivers.
