So hopefully when 1.1 releases it won't make much of a difference

Should be okay I believe. I'll have to double check things such as left-side track signals, but I'd expect the code to be similar. Since you can already put signals where there are no seams that use-case should be covered, but I didn't know it was still limited like that in 1.0, interesting. Should be fine still. And connecting directly to train stations shouldn't make a difference since it still uses the rails.

what improvements to 1.1 are there to trains? All I could see was being able to rotate the end pience and being able to do n:m track switches right?

If you look at the dynamic train routes mod page, I added an example of a single track configuration doing wild things, might be able to add it in this chat? lemme see

I've tested it on that in the early versions of the mod, didn't make much a difference I've noticed

Yea with the current setup, dynamic trains aren't necessary, the method we've used for vanilla does work just fine. But it does provide opportunities to do some more complex things, such as train strackers, bypass lanes, and especially a lot more with single rails

If the alternate path is a huge way around, it may take a little for it to register

So are you running into the case where they're not going around? Or is there no alternate path?

Some excursions can be expected from time to time, especially if it finds that route is faster, or if there's a large backup on the other route. Perhaps the two choices are really close in distance so any additional penalty to the normal route could send it the other way

I tested with your save with dynamic train routes uninstalled and it happened, so it seems to be beyond the scope of my mod. I noticed it updates when it reaches the next station though.

Aside from the UI, did the trains do a better job with their routing?
