Description

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ 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.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Dependencies

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

๐Ÿ”Ž Features

Maintenance Box

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

While maintenance is active:

  • trains will skip that station instead of stopping there
  • train schedules do not need to be edited manually
  • redstone can be used to temporarily disable the maintenance effect

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.

๐Ÿค Compatibility

The mod has been tested in larger Create-based modpacks and appears to work fine alongside many common Create addons.

This includes initial testing with:

  • Create: Aeronautics (MC 1.21.1)
  • Sable (MC 1.21.1)
  • Create Railways Navigator
  • Steam 'n' Rails

๐Ÿ“Œ Planned
