Thanks. While it is a simple concept I was afraid it would be a difficult value to edit. I hope my suggestion eventually makes it into the main game, although I know most people wouldn't make use of it.

I think this should be a very fast mod, but I don't know Lua to code it myself. If someone can write it up I'll send 20USD in paypal their way. All I'm looking for is for filter inserters to allow more filters defined. The circuit network has channels for all items in the game, but when attached to ...

if I understand your problem, you might be doing this the overly complicated way anyway...I could be completely missing the point (very likely) Why not use fast inserters on your assembler output, and have it set to enable when the item's signal > 0 (in your example, when engine signal = 1), and ha...

Here is my current use case. I'm trying to have a feed back loop in my base. In front of each assembler I have a buffer chest which is tracked for inventory. When that chest loses inventory (assembler loaded), it sends a signal to the filter inserter in front to fill the chest. This works well. The ...

TL;DR Currently the Filter Inserters support five resources to filter. Increasing that limit would help advanced base design. This could be unlockable with the advanced Inserter technologies What ? The Filter Inserter and Filter Stack Inserters have a limit of five resources to filter against. That...
