How do you all name your train stations? I was using load/unload for a while but wanted shorter names. So I switched to in/out where “in” is a resource input that is deposited by train. This causes some confusion though people thinking “in” means putting stuff in the train. I’ve also been floating the idea of on/off for putting things on or taking them off the train.

    Ah, I think I may have used in/out inversely to you when I set up trains.

    “copper in” is where copper is put “into” the train system “copper out” is where copper is dropped

      Yeah that’s a big part of why I set this post up. I usually see stations as part of the local factory, and so like green circuits require trains to input iron and copper to them. Lots of people view stations as part of the train network and, like you, name them in relation to the train’s view.
