I noticed this a few days ago while building an intersection, and dismissed it at the time, but discussed it with some other folks on discord and it was felt that this interaction can provide very bad feedback to the player.

The 18.5 degree rail curve piece has 5 signal location vs the 4 for each ...

Captive Biter Spawners

I think I've figured out how to turn a space platform into an interplanetary "train." I set a requester chest next to the rocket silos with an inserter going into the silo, and request whatever I want through the chest. In the silo, I uncheck "automatic requests from space platforms."

On the ...

I was answering the simplified question which had no requirements for generic interrupts or wildcards.

You are not understanding my question, I give up - after extensive searches of the forums/reddit/etc. seems noone has solved this problem.

A simplified question:

Has anyone come up with a method to dynamically request different materials to be dropped at the same train station via the circuit ...

Production and quality both cannot go in beacons.

Without using speed beacons to compensate, productivity modules loose too much speed, especially considering you could just get more +quality in that module slot instead. If you want quality fast, just build big production.

Resources may be ...

For Processing units using EM plants and Foundries, a single processing unit takes about 3.75 copper ore.

Adding 1 6% productivity module to each machine in the chain (Copper Ore -> Molten Copper -> Copper Wire -> Electronic Circuits -> Advanced Circuits -> Processing Units) reduces that to 3 ...

Big mining drill outputs stacks. Unlocked with stack inserter and upgraded with transport belt capacity.

They are like stone and steel furnaces. They just use their power from the nutrients rather than from the power grid.

Who wants to help me signal this intersection?

What are the wait conditions for the holding station?

I got a chance to look at the save file this morning. One steel load station has 14 slots open. So when a steel unload station opens one slot, it is very likely that 14 trains will trigger the interrupt and add a schedule to load and unload steel before any train makes it to the load station, fills ...

Here are two screenshots with animated water on and animated water off. If you look at HWMonitor, there is a lot of data going between the CPU and GPU (4x as much as with animated water off). Is it possible that animated water is on a texture in system memory rather than GPU memory?

Can you work in percent by multiplying values by 100 before doing anything with them? That is fixed point, but at least it's decimal.

Do you have more that one load station for that resource? If so I suspect that multiple trains are getting interrupted before any of the trains depart a load station and reserve the unload station.

I could not think of a good way around that myself. So instead I just named every load station the ...

That train is immediately trying to leave the station. Each time it determines that it needs fuel, so goes to the refuel station, since it is already there it arrives instantly, then once again immediately tries to leave. It never waits at the station long enough for the inserter to give it fuel.

I cannot find the values that change the speed of the asteroids spawned when a larger asteroid dies. I found the dying trigger:

Can this mod be used to slow down the game?
Details:
I have a 60hz monitor
Game just runs too fast (at least for now), I'd like to be able to slow it down without slowing down the overall animation. I have another mod which does slow down the game, but it slows down everything.

Thanks ...
