Suggestion: set slot filters to expected item

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 ...

Re: [MOD 0.13.17+] Rampant - 0.16.20

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.

Re: [MOD 0.16] Upgrade planner

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?

Re: Transferring tasks between normal and personal roboport

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.

Re: Transfering tasks between normal and personal roboport

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 to c...

Transferring tasks between normal and personal roboport

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 approaches ...

Re: Friday Facts #229 - Taiwan report & Lamp staggering

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.

Re: [0.16.22] Negative energy consumption, accumulators not used

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.

Separate logistics network warnings

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. Som...

Re: Testing nuclear reactors ratios in 0.16

*Updated 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: https://www.dropbox.com/s/avhiqbaa7949kt1/%D0%A1%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%88%D0%BE%D1%82%2...

Re: Testing nuclear reactors ratios in 0.16

*Updated 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 t...

Re: Testing nuclear reactors ratios in 0.16

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.

Re: Testing nuclear reactors ratios in 0.16

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. https://www.dro...

Re: Testing nuclear reactors ratios in 0.16

I don't understand what do you mean by throughput issues? As long as total number of working heat exchangers is equal or even bigger than theoretical maximum I see it as a perfect solution.

Testing nuclear reactors ratios and layouts in 0.16

I tested how many exchangers I can place for which layouts and what behavior happens using void pipes connected to exchangers output. I want to share and discuss the results here. 1. The heat is shared between neighbor reactors. You have to turn on or off all of your reactors, not by one, because th...

Of course I have free storage chests in that network.
