Unloader Logic: Trains should "Bulk Dump" and move on immediately#5155

I’ve noticed a throughput bottleneck at unloading stations. Currently, trains often delay their departure because the unloading platform pulls shapes from cargo containers asynchronously over several cycles as the platform’s internal buffer clears.

Instead of unloading all cargo into the platform’s buffer and departing immediately, the train ‘stutters’ at the dock—it waits while the platform consumes a few shapes, clears a tiny bit of space, and then takes more from the train. This effectively ties the train’s departure time to the belt speed of the factory attached to the station, rather than the train’s own unloading speed.

Suggestion:
Unloading should be a ‘one-and-done’ transaction. Once the train has transferred all it can into the platform’s available buffer, it should be released immediately, even if the platform is still in the middle of a processing cycle. This would prevent massive rail traffic jams caused by trains lingering for those ‘last few shapes’.

Yes! this has been incredibly frustrating for me

Does this situation improve if you use regular Immediate Stops at unloading stations? I always use Wait Stops at Wagon Loaders, and Immediate Stops at Wagon Unloaders.
