I'm entirely prepared to accept that I'm going to run into hardware and software limitations. I think though that the issue I'm running into here is a software issue rather than a hardware issue, because it started being an issue before I even started dipping below 60 UPS (still get 60 UPS when not...

A year ago they changed biters so they don't collide with each other when attacking. I thought that change made dragon's teeth ineffective. But that doesn't explain why they should ignore the turrets and attack the wall. Can you post a screenshot? See https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-316 - Search ...

Yes. After 5 - 6 minutes it should repath.

Oh! My reactors blueprint says V1.1 - the newest one is V1.4
I didn't update the control systems on my nuclear reactor

Nope. Don't change anything.

Clipboard04.png The one in the yellow brackets. And as you can see on the screenshot I changed it to C < 20 now. I think I will revisit this later. First: I will try to remove dependence on the logistic system working accurately. Instead I will try to control the inserters that feed the reactors di...

I still see no solution that has a chance to be used by the devs. The only one I could see happening would be to make combinators work without electricity at all. Sounds strange at first but belts move to without being powered and nobody cares... They could be redisigned to look like steam punk mach...

I guess I'm a little bit late but still I want to contribute my findings. After finishing my test setup to detect this I commanded my Lisp Wizard(TM) 4.8 GW Nuclear Reactor to shut down half of its reactors and waited what would happen. Shockingly the Blue Screen warning came not at 50% as boskid pr...

It detects when your combinators begin to stop responding - it's more a hanging than a crashing but I wanted to be dramatic

Have you heard the shocking news? A deep brownout can freeze your precious combinator contraptions. Chaos could unfold inside your factory right now and you would not even notice :shock: :shock: :shock: But don't panic - just install Nos#Fi's Bluescreen Detection & Electric Network Monitoring system...

I don't know the root problem.
Probably to much logistic requests but I don't know the limits there - I'm a belt base guy.

But one suggestion: Do switch to active providers.

Passive providers are the last thing on the list when a robot chooses where to pick up stuff.

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 constantly ...

As far as I remember a dev posted a workaround for this a while ago: Create one train stop which is not accessible and name it the same as the stations you want to protect from being skipped. When all stations of that name deactivate themselves this one will still be there. Trains in the stacker wi...

Can't check your safe at the moment but here is one clue: Buffer chests are the last thing on the priority list. They only get filled if your bots have nothing else to do Full info from https://wiki.factorio.com/Logistic_network A requested item is first looked up in active provider chests and in th...

What I got out of this thread:
Not any brown out causes this.
Your power supply must fall below 50% of demand.

This should never happen with nuclear reactors. You have to rely heavily on solar and akku...

Solar farms don't need combinators.

So bottomline: nuclear for the win!

Ltn creates a temporary stop directly before the real stop.
Can you confirm by looking at the train schedule that the first stop you mentioned is that temp stop?

I can't see the rest of your train system but do you really need that track to be bidirectional?

I never used that red x signal myself but doesn't mean that 39 slots in your wagon are not allowed to be used by Ltn?

That would leave one slot usable - that's 100 blue circuits...

As said above. Trains try to avoid stops that are not on there shedule. You can add a station to the bypass to even that out but I would recommend to build your station on an additional bypass lane. Edit: BTW. The double normal signals in your bypass allows a train to enter your bypass from the righ...

I've double checked that the storage box, decider combinator, and inserter are all on same network. Same network? Sounds strange. Is the inserter wired to the combinators output side? Also: if you add a power pole between inserter and decider you can read what is sent on that network by hovering th...

If there is none then this should be moved to ideas & suggestions.
