[suggestion] Add a constant combinator into the train stop #301

Closed BloodyRain2k closed 2 years ago

BloodyRain2k commented 2 years ago

TL;DR Add a constant combinator into the train stop for it's settings so there's no need to place an extra one nearby for the static signals.

Why ? Given that there's already a lamp, and whatever the output entity was, squeezed into the 2x2 of the train stop, I was thinking that it would be nice if there could be also a constant combinator added for setting the static signals of the stop.

There's a mod that adds a 'special' constant combinator which makes using LTN a LOT easier to understand (and remember how it worked) for people who have not spend hundreds of hours with setups. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/LTN_Combinator_Modernized

Having the built-in combinator use that layout would be a nice addition, maybe also with tooltips for the different settings so they're even better to understand how they work. The stack limits for example.

LTN Combinator exists as its own optional mod, by other developers. No need to add it into LTN itself.
