I'm only using track_signal everywhere, and trains all run normal when they are leaving the depot. But after some time, all my trains are running only at 1 km/h. This bug has been reported 3 years ago, but only when switching from cab signalling, and in a 1.2GB save (my save is only 0.2MB): https://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=19387.0

You need to download pak192.comic.ext here: pak192.comic-serverset-extended-nightly.zip
You can open it with the latest nightly version of Simutrans Extended.
Your link to the pakset isn't working.
But have you tried putting an end of signalling signal between switching signalling methods to reset the type? It's not a fix, but a solution.

I'm only using one type of signal all the way.
Screenshot attached below.
As Ranran pointed out, you are not supposed to place signals in the middle of a station. Remember that fool-proofing is not the highest development priority in Extended.
After some testing, I found that trains will reduce their speeds to 1 km/h once they pass through a level crossing, even if there is no signal on the crossing.
The final solution is simple: remove all level crossings.
EDIT: I still find my train running at 1 km/h after leaving a platform without any signals. This bug is exclusive to the now-not updated pak192.comic.ext.
Just to confirm the dat file of the signal isn't faulty:

Anything wrong with that?
Quote from: (N)Ranran (Hibernating) on December 28, 2022, 09:19:37 AMSince this signal behavior method is for single track, it would be better to have a signal for double track. i.e. absolute block signal.
But which one is the 'absolute block signal' in pak192.comic? I can't find it. I could only find long block signals, which require the train to stop every time when it reaches a signal.
I replaced all track_circuit_block signals to absolute_block.
Could you try downloading the game again and see if it fixes the issue.

This is due to the automatic signal construction every x fields. There it is not checked whether the signal is built on a platform or not. The problem is also likely to affect Simutrans Standard.
I also think the default setting of 2 fields is a bit small.
Yes, this bug still happens in standard to date, though only on inclines with the track_signal.

Also the same question: Which one is the absolute block signal? Can't find any of them.
In Extended, you will typically need to build a signal box before you can build its respective signals. More info here:
I'm aware of this, but in either cases it's not a bug related to the signal box. Also, this bug exists in the standard version on inclines.

This anomaly may occur because it is for a single track. Tile reservation is not working properly.
Signals for double tracks have simple tile reservations. A signal in the middle of a station probably wouldn't be a problem.
The culprit is the track_circuit_block signals, that should be replaced by absolute_block.
