Single tile automated quantum stockpile minecarts?
« on: June 07, 2013, 11:45:23 pm »

Dunno if anyone else touched this, but the Wiki entry teaches you to make a track from west to east and have Track Stop at one end.
For quantum stockpile minecart it can be simplified into 1 single tile.

1. put down a single track
2. build a Track Stop on that track (dump on arrival to east... or wherever your output stockpile is)
3. designate a single Stop ontop of Track Stop
4. make an output stockpile (on the tile the Track Stop is dumping to)
5. make an input stockpile (remember to set the right items, and enable it in Take from stockpile menu)
6. assign a minecart
7. watch as the dwarfs carry material onto the minecart... and items get IMMEDIATELY dumped on the right (output stockpile)
8. PROFIT without any injuries



this works whether you set departure north/south/w/e or guide/push/ride, the dwarfs just bypass the whole departure program and goes straight from place item in cart to item gets dumped by Track Stop.

no more broken bones from drunken dwarfs having fun drinking and driving.
