1-2 in 8 out all chests gets same amount of items

Image
1-2 in 16 out all chest gets same amount of items

Image
same like ^ just more compact and little bit less accurate

Last one is kind of amazing :shock:

Small hint for a 33% splitter: make a 25% splitter (two splitter behind a single one) and build a belt from one end back into the first one.

But hey, you managed it in your own way.

Why did you say that the compact 2-16 splitter was "less accurate"?

first one always will get same amount of item no matter what because belt length is same for all outputs

thx it will be very useful when i try make something what i never need but very complex and fun
maybe next time i will do more research before making something like that maybe not :D

I like how the player looks on the last screenshot.

A bald monk-like head (bald head mistaken for helmet), fur clothes (the belt mistaken for furry edge of the clothing)
EDIT: I don't see it anymore. Looked too close.

By my calculations, out of every 256 items, this sends 95 items to the left, 95 items to the right and 86 items to the middle. Or are you somehow relying on corners jamming for correct timing? (which my calculations would not include)

I'd say that 50:51:49 and 49:51:50 are great results that confirm what he said.

I also don't see any loops in the design, so it might actually work even if an output jams temporarily?

This is cool. Theoretically there are many other ways to divide by 3, if you can only divide by 2. :)

dont forget first time some items will get stuck and if you want more accurate numbers try send 1k-2k items

Tested with my current setup (i did grab inserter stack bonuses cause the red inserter is slow to move from the left box to the right)

21 stacks of iron and copper -> 349,349:352,352:349,349

made it 7 input chests instead of 3 per side

(holy backups batman!)

final result -> 350,349:353,350:350,348

O.o

If the outputs are backed up, then all you're testing is that the outputs all have the same number of inserters.

the strange thing was that they only backed up on one side (the outside lanes of the outside outputs)

i guess i could move the chests back and add more, but it was still fairly even on split
