Ways to tell them apart:

Another is used when referring to any additional person or thing of the same type already mentioned or known.
Another one specifies that it is an additional instance or unit of something already specified.
Remember that another is often used alone, while another one emphasizes numerically a single additional item.
Another can introduce a new possibility or option, whereas another one tends to reinforce something already established.
Use another for general statements, and another one to emphasize a specific count.
