Factorio Forums

NOTE!this is not my mod, i am simply maintaining it. Should Heinrich want it back, it will go back immediately!

I give you:

More Inserters

This adds the following:
- Half inserters.
- Long half inserters.
- Fast half inserters.
- Very fast inserters.
- Very fast half inserters.
- Filter inserters of the above.
- Smart inserters of the above.
- Tech to unlock them.

Half inserters (also the long, fast and very fast half ones) output on the close side of the belt.

Download:
NOTE: as of DyTech 0.4.2, DyTech contains this mod! If you want both, download only DyTech! But if both are installed, this mod doesnt add anything (added in 1.0.1!)
More Inserters 1.1.0!

Credits: Heinrich, its his mod, and i am simply maintaining it. If he asks, he will get it back (will then also be removed from DyTech!)

Instal:
Add folder inside rar to %appdata%/roaming/factorio/mods/

What i changed:
- added smart version of everything.
- for some reason, the half, long and long half filter inserters were disabled, they are back now!
- made the files 30% less bloated! Now 30% less size of mod!
- (1.0.1) added an safe mod compatibility with DyTech. When both are installed, this mod adds nothing and lets DyTech handle it!
- v1.1.0: Ported to factorio 0.9.x


pics coming soon!

Thank you for keeping this thing alive. I dont have the time (and the mood) to maintain the mod. Use and edit it as you please.

Hi, will you update this mod to 0.9x? That would be very cool.

I'll probably end up updating this once I get some free time. I don't intend to become a permanent maintainer, but I do prefer this mod over DyTech for various reasons.

just woke up after carnaval weekend, so ill update it today
(let me get my motivation first, its very hard to find )

edit:

it was an easy fix, so here it is
download

ill revise this mod when i am also revising the graphics from dytech. i also have a few features planned, but im working on dytech first

Trying to get this ready for 0.9.2, ran into some trouble with the game crashing to desktop on loading a save. I'm assuming it's something I'm doing wrong.

https://github.com/N3X15/factorio-more- ... 1e9a590R55 (Don't actually use this code, it's broken)

Now, a bunch of changes that I made for 0.9.1 got blobbed into this commit, so I realize it's a little messy. The changes I'm talking about are converting insert/pickup distance to positions. From looking at the game's own inserters, I assume that the correct update process is to simply change whatever_distance to whatever_position = {0, <old value>}, and making the pickup_position's y value negative.

Sorry if I'm stepping on your toes, that's not my intent at all. Just trying to get this running myself so I don't have to bug you about it.

Sadly, it's a bit harder than this for the insert_position, but I found values that seem to be working.

Do note that I could not load my old save, so I could not fully test those values, but they seem to be fine.
Hoping it helps a bit.

'normal'
pickup_position = {0, -1},
insert_position = {0, 1.35},

'normal half'
pickup_position = {0, -1},
insert_position = {0, 0.65},

'long'
pickup_position = {0, -2},
insert_position = {0, 2.35},

'long half'
pickup_position = {0, -2},
insert_position = {0, 1.65},

'long output'
pickup_position = {0, -1},
insert_position = {0, 2.35},

'long output half'
pickup_position = {0, -1},
insert_position = {0, 1.65},

I think you also need to add 0.5 to the distance to get the coordinate's Y value.

I used your small inserter mod to find out the values for the half inserters, as yours seem to work

Hello,

I get an error when launching the game with this mod.
Error message: "Error while loading prototype "inserter-fast-half-smart":No such node (insert_position).

I'm running the newest factorio version.

Any ideas what went wrong?

Thanks

Hi, first of all thanks for this mod as well as other mods that you created/are maintaining!
I'm new here on the forums and I registered just because I found out that this mod does not work with latest version of Factorio (0.9.8) as it was mentioned in previous post. I'm not an expert on modding this game, but I took liberty of merging the changes from DyTech mod Inserters back to this mod to make it work. I don't want to take any credits for this, I just wanted to get this mod to work as I don't want as robust changes to the game yet as DyTech mod provides. I think there are more people like me so I decided to share my fix here. It does not change or add anything to this mod - it just fixes stuff necessary to make it compatible with latest Factorio.

EDIT: Just replace your mods/Inserters folder with the one from the zip (only prototypes/entity/inserter.lua was modified, but I packed it all together).

I hope it helps.

Thanks MMaster! I didn't think about looking into DyTech does it. Brilliant!
Thanks again!

This mod have awesome features, thank you for this patch.

This topic can be moved to obselete.

This mod will be replaced by DyTech-Inserters, which will be a standalone mod
