Love it all. Great job devs! Now I'm hoping you'll give the filter inserter treatment to logistics chests. Clear up that inventory!

It looks like it belongs to an evil faction, like if a dead engineer was resurrected by the bugs.
If I saw that in game I'd think I was invaded Dark Souls style.

As always great job guys!

Fast Splitters/Underground Belts don't require Fast Belts to produce.
Express Splitters/Underground Belts don't require Express Belts to produce.

You can extend it to 6 wagons by repeating the first/last wagons pattern and you get the actually requested 4 belts per wagon.
Or just use a non-standard train design, like 1-2-1-2-1-2 or 2-4-2-4. Locos inside the train give plenty of space for construction.

Though every time I look at these ...

@Slayn:
- Not extensible beyond 4 wagons
- Not enough throughput chest->inserter->belt*
1. If your train is longer than 4 wagons, getting it in and out of the station before your 6 belts empty the buffer is a bigger problem.
2. Outputting to a splitter doubles inserter throughput.

Inserting efficiency modules via ctrl+click should not insert additional modules once the 80% hard cap is reached.

I.E. (assuming no modules already in structure) ctrl+clicking with eff1 in hand would only insert 3 eff1 modules, ctrl+clicking w/ eff2 would only insert 2. If a module is already ...

Flying robot frames currently require:


2 batteries
1 electric engine
3 green circuits
1 steel

The materials required to make that are:


9.5 copper
21.8 iron (10 -> 2 steel)
140 water
150 crude oil (basic oil processing, 150 -> 60 petrolium gas, 50 -> 15 heavy oil, excess 30 heavy oil and 45 ...

Plastic is already used in huge quantities for red/blue chips. And cargo arms made from plastic would break under the weight of carrying an assembler, or even an oil refinery :P

Iron is used in equal quantities for red chips and greater quantities for blue chips, but you got me with the other ...

Reasons plastic is a better fit than steel

make sure you save your old code for the april fools update (-:

If you guys do go the stack belt route it might be good to add a checkbox to inserters to only cycle for full loads.

I'm split on beacons myself. Nice having late game goals but yeah often times I find them more tedious than fun (for belts.) To be optimal you have to use "the layout" which kills direct insertion. Also when you're restricted to 2 squares on either side of the assembler you can't achieve inherent ...

Love the changes to splitters especially the priority functions. TBH I'd rather have a filter on electric mining drills than splitters though.
