Now:
I suggest that it be the same as Belt:

TL;DR
Similar to "Hold (all belts)", add the option to use a common circuit network for all belts.


What?
The option makes it so that when connecting wires to any belt, they are connected to a single circuit network. This option works independently of the "Hold (all belts)" option.

I'll show you a picture:

TL;DR
I propose making the Arithmetic Combinator as complex as the Decider Combinator: so that it can perform multiple operations per tick.

What?
With the ability to perform parallel and sequential operations (similar to AND (PARALLEL WITH) and OR (THEN) for the Decider Combinator):

A = A + 1 ...

TL;DR
I propose adding the following new operations to the Arithmetic combinator:
- Division with rounding up (modulo), for example: 3\2=2, -3\2=-2, 4\2=2, ...
- Minimum of: Every(R) MIN Every(G) = Every, Every MIN Number = Every, A MIN B = C...
- Maximum of: similar

What?

Why?
I love logic ...

1. Please make the combinators fast replaceable.
2. Please add visualization of broken wires when moving entities (Ctrl+X and move). Currently, complex diagrams have many wires, and it's difficult to visually determine whether all the wires reach the entity's new location.

By the way, I suggest deleting and this abuse:

Could you tell me if this plant would work with the new pipes?
Note the output from the oil refineries. And the fact that the refineries below have a variable recipe depending on gas reserves.
What's your take on this? Is it possible or is it a misuse of a glitch?

TL;DR

Combinators can replace each other, preserving the wires

What?

Why?

Sometimes you add a combinator to a complex circuit, connect it, and then realize you chose the wrong one. To replace it, you have to remove the old one, which breaks all the wires.

It would be cool if this option returned the internal battery level.

Give us underground belts with a logical network.

It makes them stop inserting items when entity does not want items to be inserted anymore. Makes loaders behave the same as inserters in terms of adding just a little into assemblers, not just breaching all possible insertion limits and going up to a full ingredient stack capacity.


This was my ...

Quality Transfer is clearly not working correctly. Or it is named incorrectly.

In theory, in this circuit the output should be plastic with quality 2, but the output is empty.

In 2.0.43, Loader could put 46 meteorites in the crusher (and I used it mercilessly), and in 2.0.44 only 7. Is this change related to this fix?

And you will get a delay of 2 ticks.

You send the specified signal to the inserter and his pickup and drop points swap places.

Using combinators is not always convenient due to the tick delay, and sometimes it is impossible when there are many signals.

Recently added a cool feature that allows you to keep the wire connection during the Cut-Move-Paste operation.
If you Paste too far, the wires break. And sometimes it's hard to keep track of this.
I'd like to add some kind of visual that will show which wires will break when moving.

For some reason, temporary entries are inserted at the beginning of the schedule, and not at the end.

Thanks a lot for the API for working with the schedule. BUT. Why is it so complicated and illogical?

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/concepts/ScheduleRecordPosition.html - this looks like a crutch :(
