"Enabled Condition" Broken?

Post by CyrenArkade »

I am trying to set an inserter to take out uranium 235 from a chest, but when I set it to [Uranium-235 > 40], it never does anything. But if I replace the > with a <, it will just try to empty the chest like there is no enable condition thing at all. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Maybe should you set it to U-235 or U-338 on bith sides ? :)
A screenshot of yout setup or the save would help.

You mixed up 235 and 238.

Oops, I accidentally put 238 in the brackets instead of 235. My bad!

Is the inserter actually wired to the chest?

Yes, it is indeed wired up and not working

Please make a screenshot of your setup zoomed in + inserter interface open. Also show your chest contents.
But if I replace the > with a <, it will just try to empty the chest like there is no enable condition thing at all
This is intended behaviour if inserter has no input of set material (so it is =0 and is definitely < 40) and it works then.
Seams like the inserter and a corresponding chest are not connected via colored wire or you misplaced other material in a condition.

I found the problem. I accidentally connected it to a logistics network at some point.
