Re: [0.16.17] Timing issue with circuit-controlled inserters

For my purposes, 0.16.25 has fixed this.

[0.16.17] Timing issue with circuit-controlled inserters

I've been playing around with timing stack inserters to place items on a belt at exactly the right speed to get compressed output. I've been successful in making such a setup by regulating the stack size of two inserters to 10, and having them each place on the same side of one belt exactly once eac...

[0.16.4] Game crashing on specific savefile load

Hi,

I've found a consistent crash when loading one of my new 0.16 save games. You can find the log and save file attached. Not sure what is causing the issues. No mods used, and I can load some previous saves of the same map up to about 10 minutes prior to this save.

Re: Train-IDs for the circuit network

This is also on my wishlist. I'd like to use something like this to route trains to a specific station from a stacker using the circuit network. Since 0.15 will implement reading train contents via circuit network, something like having the constant combinator signal interface as a tab in the train ...

[0.13] Allow trains to send a circuit signal

I've seen it suggested that trains should be able to send their contents to the circuit network via a train stop, but I haven't seen anyone suggest that trains also be able to send an arbitrary signal (E.g. send 100 of signal A) to the circuit network via the train stop. This would enable the circui...

Re: [0.13]Deactivating Station via Network

I am also interested in a feature that can do this. It would be possible to add a sort of 'requester station' to the rail network using this (analogous to a requester chest in a logistics system).

Re: Version 0.13.1

I used a console command to enable the flamethrower turret while waiting for the research bug to be fixed. Now achievements are disabled. Is there a way to clear the 'console command used' flag and re-enable them?

Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth

I don't quite like the recent suggestion by Klonan to limit the loaders to outputting at half belt speed and only interacting with inserters. Restricting them to being loaded/unloaded by inserters means you'll still have to have about 4/5 fast inserters to output a compressed belt, making the minimu...

Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth

I love the loader idea. It would be great for builds where you need a bunch of compressed belts side-by-side without the (enormous) space required to compress/decompress the belts at either end with chests/inserters. As for balancing them, probably having them cost blue circuits/lubricant and run wi...

Re: Friday Facts #114 - Better train conditions

I see a lot of potential for some amazingly good changes in this. OpenTTD has a thing for this, it's called "Conditional Order Jump" - an order that, when executed, checks the train's condition and decides whether to continue on to the next order, or rather skip to a specific order. This w...

Re: [MOD 0.11.x] 5dim's mod

UPDATE Changelog Trains update to 0.0.3 Fix a little bug The change here seems to have fixed the crash, but now my logistic carriages are no longer being loaded/unloaded by my logistic bots. This doesn't happen right away, but after a few minutes of regular use. After a while, even new carriages th...
