I like your idea solution I might try it in my current save.
Cons:
- If no stations have above the specified amount, train will go to any red station and hold until it opens up. Stuck forever if outpost is depleted.
You could tell the train to wait at the unloading station until circuit ...

Re: Add support storage chests that are emptied when needed
I think the behavior as it´s explained (and tested) is good enough.
Logistics bots, which usually doesn´t have the same demand to do their task quickly, prioritize to clear the storage chest over passive provider chests. This helps the construction bots to have some space somewhere to place their ...

Re: Allow reading total robots by type in logistics network
In a previous save I simply added a big power pole, a filter inserter + a provider chest to a roboport blueprint and placed them in a couple of strategical places. I then connected a green wire between them and added a combinator logic to the network to tell the inserters which bot(s) to pick from ...

Re: How to solve this train track problem
You need to replace some of the signals in the crossing.
Place chain signals before and inside the crossing, and a normal signal after the crossing.

Re: How to fill up outpost?
Easy to do with vanilla items and some combinator magic.
1. Build a constant combinator and input the number of items you wish to have stored in the outpost. (As an example, 10 ammo)

Re: Train waiting bays unused
With so many trains I would have added a series of prestations (with the same name) for the trains to pass, in 4-5 lanes and capable of holding 2-4 trainsets in a row.
From the train stations I would have built a dual track to the unloading bays and divided the number of bays between them. The dual ...

Re: Wires should not be consumed
Small poles require wires to be crafted, so there you have the wire cost included.
Bigger poles kind of have it included too as they have copper plates in their recipe.

Re: Use for Fish
I once used fish as signal in my circuit network. Perfect since I never have it stored.
One of my unfinished projects is to use fish as a "ticket" to call a train to a specific station.

Re: Single Belt System
You don´t need the chests anymore now when the belt scanners is added.
Gathering a lot of/all production around 1-3+lanes is possible, I do it sometimes when the throughput isn´t important.

Re: [MOD 0.12.X] Air Filtering
My suggestion is that MK3 should clean almost as much pollution as 4 boilers produce att full power. MK2 50% less than MK3 and MK1 50% less than Mk2.
This would result in a need of 4 MK3 to clean the air from the pollution a perfect boiler/steam engine setup produce at full power.

Of course!

In category.lua -> Remove the "item-group" and "item-subgroup" part of the code.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Specialized oil refineries (not 3 at once)
It´s an interesting mod but why did you add a new crafting category for these 3 recepies?
You didn´t have to do it. I removed this from my version and it works exactly the same, the recepies are locked to the specialized refineries.
