All green trains will follow the first green turn; you'll need more colors if you want them to take different paths
You don't need more colors here.
Instead of making dead-ends, you could do zig-zag.
Just shift all loaders and platforms 2-3 fields to the south, so you have space to place 2 stop signals at the north (and 2 stay south) => 1 south, 1 north, one south 1 north
Red train gets it's own bypass.
Green takes the zig-zag through the freight stations and can join the existing track afterwards.
Although I wonder how you plan to serve 20 unloaders with just 4 wagons.
I can only imagine serving 15 unloaders with that. (each lane could use one layer)
Or are you playing hard/extreme? Do train wagons then also have 4/5 layers?
Then never mind. Should work.
i am playing normal. but could you maybe also show me an picture? i am more of an visual learner đŸ˜… .
Long story short: Just loop the train stations, instead of splitting the train track. But keep in mind that this method only uses overflow, so the following train stations only get whats left in the train wagon.
Hm. But it's only overflow-dependent when he doesn't utilize the 3 layers of the wagons correctly, right?
He can use 5 wagons and serve 5 unloaders per layer = 15 unloaders per train with this current setup. The last 5 would never get served though.
To serve 20, he would need to use 7 wagons and have 7 unloaders per layer.
(7 * 3 = 21)
So with using layers its would no longer be overflow-dependent.
