Have fun deconstructing combinators

"anything" is undefined behavior right now, deducing from this: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=122664


Using Anything as output isn't undefined, it's function is quite useful. But it's ingame tooltip could be improved.
When used as output and the conditions do not use Each, it ...

see 127998 and 120100

A display that properly handles negatives, thanks. The one I've previously grabbed from that other thread was lacking there.

Two small improvements:
I was able to cut a few combinators from Dashboard B: Those decider generated ±100 and ±10 constants can be folded into the combinator adding them to ...

This once per install unlock has a command to fully unlock it immediately: /unlock-shortcut-bar
Similarly, for the tips and trick section there's /unlock-tips .

That said, I don't see why one would use the icon instead of the hotkey. (My shortcut bar only has two icons to show the state of my robo ...

Add a second condition: ... and Each[green] != 0. This reduces the matches to signals that are present on the green wire. Your current condition succeeds for most items, because the combinator is evaluated for each signal where Each[red] !=0 and/or Each[green] != 0 (and likewise Each[red+green] if ...

You have Each in the conditions, that puts the combinator into what I like to call "vector mode". In the pictured decider the whole set of conditions is evaluated for each signal present on the green wire. Since the lower part of the condition always passes, you get H=1 for each signal on the green ...

You can't (sans circuits) do (At A OR at B OR at C) AND (D not full). The game only allows one or inside of parenthesis. I'm sure circuit magic could do it.

I'm aware disjunctive normal form is required. The conditions I suggested can be transformed into it, no circuits required. Likewise, any ...

I know 2.1

2.0. 2.1 doesn't exist yet (except, maybe, for those with source access).

Interrupts do not do this.
It's some effort to set up, but doable. Have A as the only stop in the schedule, then add interrupts "train at A and B not full -> go to B", "train at A or B and C not full -> go to ...

if you update that spreadsheet to show the numbers including the 10% physical resistance the biters have, I would love to have it!

The result of the IF inside the damage after resistance cells should be multiplied with (1 - percentage resistance). Fixing it for one set and copying it over to the ...

Yellow ammo seems to be more cost efficient for the majority of the cases. There are few cases where red ammo is vastly superior, namely when red ammo exceeds the flat reduction but yellow does not. For example, against big biters at physical projectile damage 2 red ammo is a 880% improvement over ...

The combinators pictured in post 2 and 3 are whitelists: Output the values from the green wire if the signal is also present on the red wire. If you need a blacklist, that's also doable in a single decider combinator.

No mods needed, use the "game" section of the blueprint library. You can open it with one of the buttons next to the minimap or by pressing B.

Substitute N with the parameter you want, i.e. p0_i1, p0_i2, p0_i3 for your blueprint. (Single letters like n, m, o, ... or x, y, z are often used as placeholders in mathematics or tech adjacent fields.)

Insane ! Thank you really much @Tertius !
It's really simple and small, and thanks for the explanations I've understood almost everything, just the EACH trick is a bit hazy for me to understand, I'm thinking this acts like a filter to choose the correct recipe ?

Picking the correct recipe is the ...

The filesystem type is likely irrelevant. Also, the space-age mod doesn't come as a .zip, instead the unpacked version can be found in "<factorio-root>/data/space-age".
Considering there's a file named "data/space-age/migrations/aquilo-tilesets.json" in my install and "." as the first character in a ...

So uhm. What is m in the y axis?

I thought meter or minute, but I can't really use that to figure out how many rockets would I need per minute.


That's meters, see the x-axis, which corresponds to the total length of the route.


The x axis is route length, yes; but that doesn't tell us ...

Since you explicitly asked about grammar (my changes/corrections are marked)

I don't like it because a temperature sensor gives someone experience in reading equipment and maintaining a power budget based off that.

It is available, at least on steam.

You can just select "all requests satisfied".

That wouldn't help with the (cryogenic plant fulfilled || concrete == 0) part.


You could put the common parts into the schedule and implement the remainder (or anything that becomes unwieldy in disjunctive normal form) in combinators, e.g ...
