Non-machine with possible input, output, module and fuel inventories
An entity that can have all inventories a furnace can have, except it does not run recipes automatically. Keep the crafting process (progress, animation, sound, power consumption, fuel burning, etc), but not the logic (when to start crafting, input consumption, result production). Mod authors would ...

I've added a compatibility with Ultracube, if anyone is interested. With Ultracube memory cards do not require plastic.

Re: [Mod 1.1] Memory cards - physical signal storage
Ah, buy that I mean that you are not limited by the number of different signals, like the constant combinator stores only 20 signals.
Is it deceptive? I can edit it if you suggest a better wording.

Re: [Mod 1.1] Memory cards - physical signal storage
Nah, it is just one snapshot of the whole network, not even separated by wires. I understand why you think DISK is superior, because you can do everything that my mod does plus more (just don't use layers and don't change read/write modes of the machines), but I like the simplicity of memory cards, ...

Re: [Mod 1.1] Memory cards - physical signal storage
The idea came because of the spaceships, yes, but I think this is also useful in vanilla and with other mods basically whenever you need memory cells or need to send a signal long distances. For example, there is no easy way to store multiple values for the same signal and cycle over them. In vanill...

[Mod 1.1] Memory cards - physical signal storage
This mod adds a memory card, like a real life usb stick, that can store any circuit network data. The mod is in development still and the graphics are placeholders, but all of the functionality is there and already it is useful. This allows to store multiple values for the same signal and iterate ov...

Re: drawing and writing
As you can place assemblers anywhere relative to each other, the possibilities are infinite. There may be workarounds, like with the train network where there are 8 possible directions, but I'd need to spend a good couple of hours to implement that. Anyway, since there is no easy way and creating a ...

Is it possible to draw lines and print text on the ground? For example, connect two assemblers with a labeled arrow. I need some visualization for an algorithm I'm currently playing with.

Re: Conditional train stop selection on per-train basis
Except this is not a wait condition. Trains should ignore the refueling station if they have enough fuel, while trains with empty tanks should not. Maybe I'm missing something, but you cannot have this logic if you just connect the station to the network.

Conditional train stop selection on per-train basis
According to the last fff, you can turn off train stations. This does not allow trains to pick their destinations based on the load: you cannot set up a refuel station that trains visit only if they are out of fuel. You cannot skip a copper loading station if the cargo is full. Please allow.us to se...

Re: Inventory and toolbelt filters act as request slots

Inventory and toolbelt filters act as request slots
First, the toolbelt (hotbar) filters. You already can designate a slot specifically to one item type and nothing else can go to that slot, so there is no harm if robots always keep this slot at maximum item stack. For example: if you have a transport belt filter slot in your quickbar, logistic robot...

Re: More Robotic Options
As I see it, transport belts is the early game (pre-oil era) challenge. Notice how the production becomes trivial as soon as you have enough logistic bots. In the mid game, it is fine as you have other things to do: war, mining outposts and the train network. Also, you have the whole oil industry th...
