This may have been mentioned before, or more likely won't really get seen, but i was thinking that the light in the center could change respective of what effect it's transmitting. there's only 3 combinations of effects that can be transmitted, so it would be fairly easy to code i would imagine. if ...

I've seen them taking from the closest chest as well. What's seemed to happen though is that the bots would empty out the 3 sets of chests, while the last set is completely full. Since the inserters still can't move stuff because the chest is full (and therefore none of the inserters can move) the b...

@Trebor Yeah, when i was typing that out, i knew it didn't make sense. Next time it happens i'll do a bit more investigating before temporarily fixing it. @optera Ahh, I did misunderstand that. Though this was has seemed to work pretty well.... this is the second time it's gotten stuck though, but i...

This might be a bit more complicated then what you're looking for, but it's worked really well for me in the past. For my pickup stations (where i'm picking up ore or whatever) -connect all the chests together for the first wagon. -Connect those chests to the input of an artimatic conbinator -set th...

So a while ago I had a problem with my trains where they weren't being fulling unloaded at a station because the chests for the last 2 wagons were full, while the front two wagon chests were completely empty (using provider chests and bots to pull from them). it was then suggested to me to have some...

ahh, I see. So that would balance the chests that feed into the LTN station by controlling what goes out of them (and into the provider chests). So if i understand it correctly, i would connect all of my chests together( even between the wagons, so 12*4=48 chests totat) to be the input to my combina...

First off, I love this mod! so fun and so helpful! before using this mod, i would setup my "requesters" to read the contents of each set of chests for their respective wagons, and make sure there was enough room to empty 1 full wagon into those chests. For examples, i had a LCCCC train, an...

I've thought of something like this as well. Could you have a depot immediately after each of your requesters? have be it 5 train lengths after your requester stop, or however long your train is. Then when your train is done unloading it would go straight to a depot, and then wait, while also allowi...
