[Twinsen] 0.15.12 Inserter not following enable condition

Post by Matthias_Wlkp »

I connected an inserter to an item counter.
- belt is connected to a counter (copper plate pulse) counter counts copper plates. Each plate adds 1 to constant "C"
- inserter is connected to a circuit logic => each time inserter picks a plate, it's content is read in a pulse state
- then the signal goes to an arithmetic combinator - constant *(-8) and then output constant "C" to sum with the aforementioned counter
- inserter picks only, when the "C" is greater than 8

The purpose is, that the inserter picks every eight plate.

It does what it's supposed to do, but inserter instead of picking when "C" is greater then 8, it picks when it's 5, so when i read the signals on the pole, I see it going up to 5, then it's -3, -2, -1, etc.

Obviously 5 is not greater than 8, so Ithought I'll let you know.

The red and green networks are summed up inside the inserter. Since you have 5 in the green network and 5 in the red network, it's sum is greater than 8. Simply remove the red wire to the inserter and it will work as intended.
