Combinators on train stations
Posted: Tue Aug 13, 2019 4:47 pm
Hello there, i don't usually ask questions online, i prefer to find them by my own, but this problem takes already too much of my mind free time and i see no end.
How can i program a train station to be open when i have x items in chests and close when i have x + y items?
Ex:
Unloading station, 48 chests = 115.2k iron ore.
I need the station to be open (accept trains) when i have 50k or less iron ores in chests.
BUT!
To not close the station immediately after surpassing 50k. I need to keep it open until it reaches 80k iron ores..
Then closing it until goes under 50k again, and so on.
Hope i made myself understood.
I have, i believe, over 1000 hours on Factorio (from since it was 5$) but never spent this much time into a small problem like this.
Thanks!
