Honestly, I dont think LTN is the best match for outpost supply where often you want a very varied mix of items delivered. But there is no issue to mix LTN with standard trains, which is what I would recommend you to do here. Built an outpost supply fil station where the trains get loaded with the v...

instead of multiplying you can provide an input constant combinator with a given value and then use input count.

My late game outposts are strictly a gun turret/flamethrower affair. With two artillery pieces added in as well. The size is within a single roboport construction range, and I have two overlapping blueprints. The shell, which is the station, roboport and request chests. This gets built by me where I...

To jump in on this a bit. I think a truly universal reaquester station would have to be done with circuits, and is a nice game problem to solve. In essence you want to only put things on the requester when they are over their specific threshold. I experimented a bit already with these, but I ended u...

You can read the entire logistic/robot network from one roboport. So you can use total robots of either kind to then enable/disable an inbound station and have one train with supplies always standing by. I'll take some screenshots of my no-mods outpost and post it here with an explanation of how it ...

I think you have to make a merger with a combinator.

anything * 1 output checkmark for example.
and then on checkmark > 7

right click your equipped armor.

If it is just for ores you can use the Ore Eraser mod:

You could play with steam link or something like that.

Or build rails using blueprints.

I have a chunk aligned rails template, and I build all my rails from map view and then I just go out there and actually build em with the bots.

The wiki has a section on clocks and directly under that is the section on pulse generators which is what you want.

I am replying to this topic instead of starting a new one. But I would also love for the spidertron inventory to get autosorted just like the players. Probably bound to the same or a different setting so players with 500 spidertrons can turn it off if it impacts their UPS too much.

Here is my very simple and not very efficient Kovarex setup: SimpleKovarex.png The key is that the 235 is only ever put on the inside lane and never the outside. The outside lane is for 238 only. The output 238 is priority used as input, and replenished by output from the source centrifuges. This is...

I have to agree, LTN makes soo much possible because the trains are no longer limited as point to point entities, but behave like bots. I am now playing a vanilla playtrough to get back into 1.1 and I sorely miss it. I don't even know how I'll manage to get all the ingredients to my mall with standa...

Just to everything times 100 and say the units are in cl. Problem solved, as the unit is never mentioned anyways.

as a sidenote, you can probably force to install the drivers posila linked, if you go to device manager and manually select these as drivers. -> update drivers for this device -> choose driver -> browse, and select the correct .inf and ignore all warnings. Granted, I propose you do some more researc...

I am sorry, what seems to be the problem? I dont see any concrete problems you state except "this is hard man"

I can only point you to check some train tutorials on youtube or look at designs and see if you understand them.

the question then becomes, how much UPS does the stacking and unstacking create?

The main use at that point imho is an automated mall for the player. it is very useful in that role.

I am at the point where I am going to retire my seablock bootrstrap base, but I wanted to share it before I removed it. So here it is in all its map view glory: Map view of starter base.png he concept was a ribbon setup with power left and more complex stuff to the right, ending with science and a m...
