Modular Stations Ports on bottom Question
Does anyone use Modular Stations? In particular the ports on the bottom freight station?
I'm attaching a Belt lift to the bottom and products are not going into the station cargo... Is there something I am missing?

@nary_believe Did I miss something? Thanks in advance!
Did you make sure the switch in the platform menu is set to load?
Also pictures would be helpful
Yes it was set correctly
And to clarify it wasnt even loading into the station, not the train
The conveyor lift wouldnt load. I can post pics later
Ok
It just won't feed
So one thing I noticed with those is that those "ports" on the bottom aren't actually ports, you need to connect to the real one inside the platform, make sure you connect the lift from the platform first, to check if you placed it correctly or not you can dismantle the platform and if you connected it correctly the lift should be fully intact
My apologies if I'm kinda hard to understand
I'm confused, doesn't it just act like a conveyor floor hole where you would put the lift?
Nope, they are just for show
How do you visually tell if it is connected to the proper one then?
One sec I'll send a picture if I can
I appreciate that
I think I understand what you mean, just not sure how to visually tell if it is connected or now before I place it.
Yea I get what ya mean
Game is loading up now
ok so you see how there's two arrows, you need to connect to the top one
ah okay
so if the top one disappears
I am connected
mhm
Got it. Thank you, I'll give that a test right away. I appreciate that.
Worked like a charm
ty ty!
this is what i was talking about before btw
see how the lift is actually inside the platform
Yeah the port is just a visual
Got it now. Ty
I thought it behaved like a floor hole
you're welcome

Delta Dave is correct. The snapping points for the Freight Platform (Ports Below) are actually buried inside, but they're positioned in such a way that lifts which attach to them will come out with the expected alignment. You can also snap belts to them, but it won't look good.
