I didn't update the control systems on my nuclear reactor

Nope. Don't change anything.

This explains that ^^
Thanks for your input nonetheless, it made me have a closer look at the whole circuitry, so that's not lost at all !

Ok this explains why I was confused.
In your first post, you mentioned that the signal was only issued for 1 tick, and that you changed from C=0 to C<5.
But in my setup (fresh blueprint install), this combinator checks C<=32, so I'm unsure if I should set it to C<20 as per your screenshot...

Thanks. This reactor has powered my base for more than 200 hours now ;)

However now that I'm running it at full capacity I noticed a glitch with the reactor feeding.
Once in a while a reactor misses it's fuel intake.

I monitored the combinator that calculates the numbers of reactors - it ...

So elegant and obvious now you've suggested it... Would have loved to come up with this by myself.
I definitely second that idea !

I think it's a far better way to handle the "problem". Personally share the devs view : I don't see the point of a tab with duplicates.

TL;DR
Filter/highlight suitable items when armor grid is opened

What ?
When the armor grid UI is opened, it would definitely help if eligible items were shown in a particular way. My prefered implementation would be that only suitable items would be selectable, since I don't see the point of ...

I definitely second the idea of a server manager window to handle several servers and their credentials !

Basically the same, just reversed. Quyxkh's solution is more elegant because it's achieving the same result while using less resources (combinators/wires) and operations. On the other hand, every solution that works is valid, and finding one all on one's own is very satisfying. :-D

Indeed. Except ...

Having just one filter on stack filter inserters makes sense from a different perspective as well: When do you use stack inserters? If you expect them to move many items of the same type! Setting many filters implies that you expect a great variety of items. Stack filter inserters could still be ...

It's easy: greenwire a constant combinator and your chest to the stack filter inserter. Set the inserter to "set filters" mode. Anything you want to stay in the chest, set a constant -1000000 in the combinator. Filters are only set from positive signals, so just ensure the signal for anything you ...

Ok I got it.
What you describe works with the regular Filter inserter (and I mentioned just that in the title of my post, to be fair), but I was trying to get it to work with a Stack filter inserter, which doesn't seem to be possible, according to the Wiki and as astroshak mentioned.
Quite ...

That's what I would have done in 0.16.51. While setting up an MWE right now, I noticed that things have become much easier in 0.17:

Set up a constant combinator. Add signals IRON ORE and COPPER PLATES, each set to 1.
Put a filter inserter next to the container and connect it to the output of ...

Further testing, and it seems that the "Set filters" option only takes one signal into account (which one ? Couldn't tell).
It's a pity you can't have a blacklist that would actually be a list, and not a single item.
Any guidance is very much welcome, I might have overlooked something obvious :)

Hello.

I'd like a filter inserter to grab all objects in a container, except those sent by circuit network signals with the "Set filters" option selected on the inserter. I tried positive values, negative values, whitelist, blacklist... Nothing seems to achieve that.
Am I doing something wrong, or ...

Thanks to you both for your valuable input. Guess I'll settle for an external approach then.

Hello.

I'd like to add a save file backup functionality, so that every time a save or autosave is written, it is immediately replicated on another location, but it doesn't seem like there's any API event triggered when this happens.
Is there any plan to add such an event ?

Or does anyone have an ...

Drag & drop in research queue, exactly what I came here to post, so it's a big +1 !

Hello.

I have 2 headless servers running smoothly (praise be dtandersen's Docker image...) :
- first one is hosting a save which has been created locally on my computer then moved to said server
- second one is running its own save (created by the server itself)

On the 1st, I do have access to the ...

Man, I don't remember the wait being so hard to bear for 0.16.
Hype over 9000...

I wouldn't mind à 3XL or, let's get crazy, 4XL option for the t-shirts...
Is that something you'd consider at some point ?
Thanks in advance. Another very interesting FFF, as they almost always are !
