How far can toilet be from waste stack?

How is the soil pipe from the toilet to the soil stack?
I’ve included a sketch of roughly how I want my soil pipe to be routed. I’ll need to use an s-trap for the toilet so the pipe goes straight down through the floor and into the kitchen below before bending it back into a near-horizontal sloping pipe (1/80 gradient) that runs along the edge of the kitchen ceiling.
How does one toilet drain and the other flush?
Both toilets flush well as expected. But – one toilet drains as expected but the other sends its waste via the first toilet then down the soil pipe.

How big of a stack does a toilet need?
One didn’t have much, the other one suggested that it is normal to have all the toilets from a house go into one, usually 4 inch, “soil stack”. Sinks, tubs, and showers can go into a secondary stack connected to th soil stack at some point.
Can a toilet be connected to a vertical stack?
Ideally individual sanitary fittings should have their own connection to a vertical stack; once you start teeing into a horizontal foul drain or daisy chaining waste connections then you can get problems with trap siphoning. This can be overcome with additional AAAV’s or by fitting Hepv0 traps/valves but it better to without these if you can.
