Very useful for setting train limits!

For other possible applications, you can even go further and clamp the value between a lower and upper bound:

Here, I added [N] as the lower limit. Note that N and M have to have different values, otherwise the 'each' signal will output the ...

I built a compact 4-character numeric display for dashboards and control systems.

It displays positive numbers using 3–4 significant digits, automatically switching to metric prefixes as values increase.
To save space, the metric prefix (K, M, G) also acts as the decimal point location.

1234 ...

+1 to being able to use the "Anything" wildcard and have it work like it does with display panels

Thanks for the feedback!

I kind of ended up posting things in reverse order. I first designed a 60-assembler bot automall using this “system,” then decided I wanted to share both the mall and the system. After that, I challenged myself to build the smallest automall I could. But I posted the tiny ...

(This guide assumes you already know the basics of combinators and are comfortable with some simple programming terminology.)

For most players, building solutions for common problems—balancing oil, toggling between solar and coal with an RS latch, or setting train limits based on inventory, is ...

Just try putting some iron and copper plates in, and some steel, for example. Turn it on by enabling the On/Reset combinator. Request a few items in the Requests combinator. Belts, inserters, a car, you name it. It will make use of existing intermediates in the wagon if available, so you can save it ...

This design is intended for use on space platforms, if you want to be able to craft anything just by setting a request on a combinator and having the raw materials available. It automatically calculates and crafts intermediates. For example, if you have only iron and copper plates, and you request ...

Same issue here. Had to do the 'workaround' to make things work.
