Your logistics robots pick up 150 stone walls and bring them to you, leaving a gaping hole in your defenses where biters storm through and ransack your base.

I order my logistics robots to bring me 1 cube of rocket fuel.

http://i.imgur.com/saStOWR.jpg Racetrack2.zip The product of my wasting time with combinators for hours on end has finally paid off. I present this racetrack map that has a built in light display that keeps track of your laps and time. I was inspired by this topic and I wanted to make my own racetr...

I updated my single digit display, using XKnight's integer overflow alphabet to cut the size in half. It can still be chained together for multiple digits. I used a version of your display for a project of mine and I found that you can take off one of the arithmetic combinators from the bottom whil...

The main problem is getting player input, it is quite awkward without mods. It would be good to have some kind of button + switch entities to play with these kind of things, I'm not sure if we have it in the roadmap for 0.13, but it would be really easy to do. You should put 1 green circuit into th...

Updated to 0.1.1 Sorry for the delay. I've fixed the issue with the crash caused by stepping on invisible plates. If by some chance you manage to build an invisible pressure plate, you can now mine them and if you step on them then turn to normal. Also I updated the technology icon from something I...

I could not load blue print due to error: Unknown entity basic-pressure-plate. In the meantime my WAG is that you are using a form of Godelization 8-) . Oops! Good catch. It's fixed now. And yes it does use Godel numbering, but only in the most primitive sense of the concept. The amount of the inpu...

I've just posted a new contraption, The Basic Encoder. It takes any individual signal under 10M and changes it into a single blue signal that contains both the type and value of the signal. This one could be the starting point of a device that allows you to store multiple signals of the same or of d...

This one is a little more specific. It inputs the rising edge of a signal, and outputs it later after being delayed by a custom number of ticks. The tick length of the delay is set by the value of the blue signal in the top-right constant combinator. For this contraption to work properly It has to ...

Very nice mod, thanks ! I wish there was also a larger plate (2x2, 3x3 ?) because when you have a lot a exoskelets and move quick , it's not easy to position yourself on the little plate. By the way, I have a map that makes a problem : "Error while running the event handler: __Pressure Plate__...

Posted a new contraption, the variable signal delayer. Check it out. XKnight, did you ever come up with a solution for your challenge? If you split the signals by above and below the median you could do two of those things I posted in parallel, but you would have to know the median in advance, and y...

Nice mod! Here's a couple pixel arts I've made with the colored concrete. I'm not an artist, I'm just ahead of the curve. The Joker ( not my original artwork ) http://i.imgur.com/expC7hn.jpg H4sIAAAAAAAA/5Wd4a7cxpWEX8Xwbxtgc8hhE4GeJfDKF7vCaqWF40ViGHr3jWcuEsBTVazvZ+ICxWF3nyqey/7656/fff768afP3/31w++fP...

maybe huge power consumption, or even, could consume lubricant in order to work ? I was against loaders until I heard this lubricant idea and now I am all for it. There should be able tradeoff with loaders compated to inserters, and not just something trivial like higher initial cost. I like the co...

Input: - ~150 different signals in input - each signal has unique value (I don't know, maybe this information will help you) - each value is less than 1M (this value may be reduced/increased by your demand; it is preferable to increase this value) Expected output: - each signal should be presented ...

Although previous challange was not completed, I am not sure that it has any reliable solution. Fortunately I found another task which can be used instead of "The Largest Item Finder" for my purposes. Input: - ~150 different signals in input - each signal has unique value (I don't know, m...

You should try downloading the color coding mod. Its got a lot of different colors of concrete so you'll be able to make colored pictures. Also for better presentation I recommend mining all of the ores on top of your picture so they don't get in the way. Keep up the good work and keep those picture...

Would this do (the Task)? That's close but not quite it. It's actually really weird having a combinator with if ANYTHING as a condition and exporting the input count as a set signal. To eveluate the ANYTHING condition the combinator cycles through each signal in the internal game order and outputs ...

The game is called Factorio, so why hasn't there been an easy way to calculate factorials in the game until now. This device takes a blue signal input and finds the value of its factorial. 6! = 720. Now you know! This one is especially useless because the highest you can calculate is 12! without go...

Hi guys! I've recently learned how to build some cool and helpful devices with combinators. I've built clocks, digit displays, multiplexers, ways to detect if a mining drill is empty, train arrival detectors, and other useful contraptions to help around my base. You've all seen those builds before. ...

Great! Smart idea to average the contents and compare to that. That even allows you to place the whole thing in between the two warehouses, very neat! I didn't know about the everything/anything signals, these sound very useful (although I would have picked other symbols, e.g. the inverted-A forall...

I saw your post and decided to have a crack at simplifying your design and I've got it down to 1 arithmetic combinator and 1 constant combinator by using both color wires. http://i.imgur.com/TM5ZsV1.jpg Both warehouses are connected by a red wire, which will sum their contents and send that signal t...
