	The New Non-stop handling changes the way non-stop orders are interpreted. With classic TTD, non-stop orders were a way of removing a station from an order list temporarily; that is, to tell a train to skip a station while allowing the user to easily re-add the station to the order list at a later time. Trains would completely ignore a non-stop station and head directly to the next station. With this switch enabled, they will instead ''head towards'' a non-stop station, passing through it before proceeding to the following order. This is useful for waypoints (See below), but not for general orders. If you have an old TTD game with lots of trains that you have given non-stop orders to, you can use the [[SignCheats\| sign cheat]] Cht: NoNonStop to remove all non-stop settings from the orders.
