This is probably going to be impossible to diagnose without pictures.

Re: Blue Science Crafting Time
Crafting time per science pack of Blue/Chemical Science packs are out of order compared to the rest. Red 5s Green 6s Grey 5s Blue 12s Purple 7s Yellow 7s Just cut the craft time in half to make it in-line with the rest. I'd like to push back on this idea. I think blue having a large crafting time i...

Does it still do the same when you set the hand read mode to "hold"?

Re: Logic network long(ish) expressions
It can be done in 10. Try leveraging the fact that wires are a free addition as much as possible. I think you'll need 8 decider combinators for the threshold expressions. After that, though, you'll only need two deciders. For each threshold condition have them output 1 of a signal unique to its OR g...

Re: How to request correct train at stations that accept multiple types of goods
You can also do the trick of one station right after another for up to three stations and control them with local circuits. There will be four tiles of overlap between the cars of each with two stations and two tiles of overlap with three. It's a bit jank but doesn't require global circuits or mods.

I don't think anyone figured out what you were asking for the first time around. Were you asking for being able to rotate a building by building another of the same over it?

Re: Electric mining drill circuit output 1 count option
If you can guarantee which miner will run out last you could count active miners by taking its output on a separate wire, converting just that one to a math-only symbol, and divide the summed outputs of the whole field by it. The problem of course is that this could quite easily overflow the signal ...

I'd point you towards Helmod or Factory Planner. They're not exactly what you're looking for but what you want is a subset of their features.

Re: "Read Chest contents" - Indicate if empty
For the ore just stick them in next to the train. There's an entire free column there.someone1337 wrote: βSun Jan 07, 2024 8:00 pmShow me where you would put that one decider per chest in my first screenshot.
If you wanted to do it for plates too you can lose the lamps.

Re: "Read Chest contents" - Indicate if empty
First, I think you should redesign to avoid asymmetric drain.
Second, you can get what you want from a decider with "everything = 0, output 1 placeholder" attached to each chest or set of chests you're interested in.

Re: How big is a fish??
A base level tank car fills up with 25,000 fluid. I don't know if this is well defined anywhere, but I think it is reasonable to treat 1 fluid as 1 liter. A real life tank car starts in the 20,000 liter range and gets bigger (much like AngelBob tank cars) A single Factorian Fish squishes down to 20...

Re: Train 2.0 question
Without version 2 to play with I can't be sure, but I think this would work. 1) Have all generic loading stations disabled by circuit logic unless they have one train's worth of cargo ready to load. 2) have a depot full of trains waiting to service any stations that are ready to load a train. 3) lo...

Re: Diminishing returns on parallel research
The research cost (which is essentially dictating the pace of the game = how fast you'll have access to new machines and options) is hard to properly calibrate for all games : - Either it's too high and it's frustrating to wait a long time for new research to unlock - Or it's too low and you discov...

Re: Train 2.0 question
This question appears to boil down to "how do I balance trains to loading stations when I have fewer trains than the sum of all loading stations' train limits?" The answer is obvious once you reframe the question like this. Add more trains. Saturate your rail network. Empty trains waiting ...

Re: [1.1.94] Train pathing anomaly
Question : From the above I don't see where the 5 minute wait comes from. Is it possibly keeping a counter for the number times it completes the 30 second timeout without moving and if it reaches a threshold (10 loops) calculates the path penalties differently or chooses the next lower penalty path...
