Vehicles can't deliver material for construction if behind a pipe/belt? #1610

Open TheManInOz opened 1 month ago

Issue description

I couldn't see this mentioned elsewhere, or couldn't see a decent answer. I've noticed that If I first design a layout using Planner mode, then selectively build certain parts, other parts that I build afterward that aren't directly reachable, because they're surrounded by buildings/pipes/belts etc., that they will never have parts delivered, and I must use unity. Is this a current limitation, where vehicles can't deliver items to constructions in this scenario? I thought they could always do this, and/or they have a maximum range, where all they need to do is sit inside this range to deliver. Save file attached. Currently there is a Data Center and 2 Water Chillers in this situation. It is waiting on Electronics III. There is a storage which is full of them, with vehicle export set to On. Neither are paused. I have paused and unpaused them. There are vehicles available. Actually just now I saw an alert that a truck is unable to reach a location, and selected it to discover that it is indeed targeting those buildings. Save 2024-07-09, 20-54-34.zip

The range is limited to one tile from building. Just don't put the pipes before the building is built.

Ok thanks. Maybe this can go under the 'feature request / vehicle improvement' umbrella.
