Then it can be implemented like this: when turning off an inserter attempts to finish its swing right now and if it's not possible to do (no space or no container) then it becomes disabled (no waiting for container). With this you can still use pulse signals to activate inserters but it doesn't lead ...

I thought "off" means "off", not "off + last swing".

I assume steps are something like:
1. Put an inserter that activates on wire condition and a chest with items behind
2. Place a cargo wagon at the front
3. Turn on the wire signal to activate the inserter
4. Turn off wire signal, remove cargo wagon - try this or an opposite order to make some of ...

Assuming indexes in lua start from 1.

getbar() → uint
Get the current bar. This is the index at which the red area starts.

When I called setbar(1) it set 1 slot free and others locked. Which means that when I call getbar() it will return 1 but red area will actually start from index 2. So ...

Now it's recommended to use filter inserters but why bother if the mod can set wagon filter slots so noone can insert anything wrong?

This way even if a filter inserter stucks with a wrong item in its hand it won't put that item in a wagon like it happened to me. (Yes, I know about the "Locked ...

Hi, I have another suggestion. The artillery is supposed to deal one shot kill damage to biter spawners so if you buff their hit points (with the new enemies feature) there should be an option to buff artillery.

Hi, thanks for the mod. Can you make an option for normal mode to work only inside player reach range and all entities outside upgrade using robots?

The solution may be under a personal preference but the current state where you have to wait long times to build blueprints is not preferable for anyone
Especially when it's just a cut&paste operation.

The bot network does not know the difference between personal and stationary roboports.
This is not a mod request. The devs can make it know.

And personally more ofthen than not i'd much rather have the opposite. If it can be build from stationary then don't waste my time on it.
1. I suggested ...

TL;DR
When a construction task exists it should be completed by personal roboport robots when player approaches.

What ?
Construction tasks should be automatically transferred between personal and normal roboport.

If a construction task is scheduled to a normal roboport robot when player ...

Lamps are... just lamps (I never even noticed that they don't turn on at the same time) and laser turret graphics is great but not important at all.
Instead I would like to hear any news about the belt compression issue.

Sorry, I can't reproduce it now either. It's possible that it was caused by some kind of memory corruption and fixed itself after restart.

TL;DR
In tooltip show missing items separately per network.

What ?
Now all missing items are shown together. Split them by network or at least show a player personal network separately.

Why ?
Sometimes items are missing because I planned a construction "for future" somewhere far away ...

I mean that red bar on screenshot going left. Something is really broken there.

Ok, so the theoretical calculations are really bellow what you can do. I tested the same design in bigger scale. There you have to use 11-12 exchangers in a row and less corners but still necessary:

I'm curious now what reactor temperature is considered good. With 272 exchangers it's on 980 C (previous screenshot) but if I connect more (at the top and bottom) it cools to 700 and some distant exchangers stop working. The maximum count of working exchangers is then 280.

So is it better ...

The heat pipes are the problem. The heat gets bottled up in your setup and only a fraction reaches your heat exchangers.

Then they would not heat to 500 C. My tests show that they actually would at that distance.

I like your idea of using two sides of a heat pipe. Since the row is less or equal to 12 it makes possible to put turbines just at the same row instead of limiting reactors count to 24 (2x12) and putting turbines at sides. This design works exactly as it was theoretically calculated.
