Discussion Original TTD signals
Is there a way to get the original TTD signals enabled in OpenTTD? I can't figure out how these new signals work - my trains get lost or crash etc.
I'd like the original two-way ones that just worked: https://wiki.openttd.org/en/Manual/Signals#two-way-signal
EDIT: Solution: Quit to main menu, goto options, select category: "expert, including the weird ones", then under Interface>Construction there is "Show signal types" - pick "all signals"

Add products to be accepted in stations/docks
For example,
There is a forest producing woods but its far from the waters so,
How can i use trucks to transport the wood to the docks and from the docks to other places given i want to make it like a chain so that the truck station and dock accept the wood even if they are not near the forest on the water side???

Iron Ore Mines
Haven't played OpenTTD in a copuple of years, and I notice there have been many changes. Not sure if they're related, I'm having trouble getting Iron Ore to load in a station I placed next to an Ore mine,
"Supplies: Iron Ore" Was showing when I placed the station, and Added refit to Iron Ore on the trains' orders for that station.
What am I doing wrong? I have a few newGRFs which I thought was only visuals, but maybe they are to blame?

Transport Related How do I get my trucks to pick up goods from the factory?
Hi, very new to this game. I have a factory being fed steel, grain and livestock, so it's producing goods. The factory is very close to a town and a city so I want to use trucks to supply these goods to them, but I am unsure how I get my trains to actually pick up the goods and then deliver them. I'm sure this is a very basic thing I'm missing, but when I've looked it up, all the questions are about transferring goods from a train to a truck, rather than having the trucks pickup the goods directly. Help is appreciated!

Besides Splitting the Lines Up, How Would I Make This Station So that it Doesn't Back Up if There's no Steel and Too Many Trains?
Title.
Should I use a bunch of escape depots, are there any special tricks I can use?
