🛠️ Create: Maintenance Control

Logotype

Create: Maintenance Control is a small addon for Create that lets you temporarily disable Train Stations, making trains skip them without having to edit their train schedules manually.

Place a Maintenance Box next to a station to mark it as under maintenance. Trains with that station in their schedules will automatically skip it until maintenance is disabled again.

🛠️ Dependencies

This mod requires Create
Using a recipe viewer such as JEI or EMI is recommended

Place a Maintenance Box next to a Train Station to mark it as under maintenance.

Example use cases

Temporarily closing a platform during rebuilding
Skipping a station during track work
Toggling maintenance with redstone for operational events

Current behaviour / limitations

If a disabled station is a terminus, trains may encounter route errors unless the network allows them to pathfind from the previous stop to the next scheduled one.
- This is currently the intended behavior rather than a bug/limitation.
The mod currently focuses on skipping maintenance-marked stations rather than rerouting trains to alternative destinations. More advanced routing behaviour may be explored in future updates.
Best results are achieved on networks where trains can still pathfind from the previous stop to the next one.
