[MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
I've only used the Sensor so far, from this mod, but I like it a lot. It's nice to be able to get a readout of my Accu storage (measuring on 1 normal Accu, then using an Arithmetic Combinator to divide by 50 to get a 0-100 value, then outputting to a 3-digit Nixie Tube row - that's another good mod, by the way), and I've been looking forward to using it more, e.g. to control Boiler activity.
So I hope the update to make this mod 12.5-compatible comes out very soon.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
There, new version for the sensor. Might be buggy (as always), but I've added some new features. Also, using constant combinators now which helps clean up some of the mess.
This patch will have some minor migration issues, resulting in broken red/green wires and invalidated conditions where the old types of signals were used. The new roboport features make it worth it though.

Will all red/green wires break, or only those that involve objects from your mod?Kikkers wrote:There, new version for the sensor. Might be buggy (as always), but I've added some new features. Also, using constant combinators now which helps clean up some of the mess.

It's no big deal either way, since I didn't place a lot of them, but would be nice to know. And thanks for updating your mod so quickly!
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
Only wires connected to a sensor's terminal, because I replaced the entity type of the terminal. Other than that, any circuit conditions that involved any of the 'virtual' items I used prior to 0.4.6 are cleared. They have been replaced by actual 'virtual-signal' type objects.Peter34 wrote:Will all red/green wires break, or only those that involve objects from your mod?Kikkers wrote:There, new version for the sensor.

Super nice! It took me only about a minute to restore functionality to my factory.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
hi do you still have a link for the one that will work on .12.4
i have a lot of mods that haven't got to .5 and only just found your mod and looks like it wont play nice with .12.4

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
Just found about your mod for a day or two, and i can't get enough already. Completely restructured my base because of this mod.
I even use the feature to flip belt splitter !
Anyway, is it possible to add ability to flip curved rail ?
And flip the straight rail ? (Although i'm not using it, but some people might find that useful)
Other mod (Rail logic) do managing by removing the rail (i didn't actualy use it, only see the pic and description).
While it works, it's not visually very pleasing.
If you can flip instead, it's visually more resembling a train tracks switcher.
Because the way i see it, you use rotational function, while in tracks they didn't pivot on the same spot. And we can't rotate the track once it was placed down.
Maybe it's impossible to do this?
Also,..can you add support flipping underground belt ?

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
You can do this using github, I've added short instructions in the first post. In your case, you'd have to download this: https://github.com/Kikkers/Factorio-Sma ... 95fb5a.zipgrifter1 wrote:hi do you still have a link for the one that will work on .12.4

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
The fluid signal is removed in 0.4.6?
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
You can connect wire to tank in 0.12 to get fluid signal.waduk wrote:The fluid signal is removed in 0.4.6?
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
I know that, but i want to read info from rail tank.
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
It should be replaced with normal fluid signals, so you can detect the type of fluid. If this doesn't work, it's a bug.waduk wrote:I know that, but i want to read info from rail tank.
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
Ah, sorry about that, false bug report then.
Yes it's properly show the type of liquid.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
Thinking about this, I don't think I'll be doing these for this mod. The underground belt flipping would require removing and placing, as the input/output property is (AFAIK) read-only, and changing the direction doesn't do anything right now. Removing would also remove items on the belt, so it would require a big workaround that I'm just not up to. Maybe the logic belt guy wants to attempt it though.waduk wrote:Just found about your mod for a day or two, and i can't get enough already. Completely restructured my base because of this mod.

As for rails, I'd like to not touch those as both the sensor and actuator rely on ignoring the rail itself because they are targeting trains instead. I don't think it would fit this mod if I tried to somehow integrate this, regardless of it's difficulty to code. However, if there were specific mods that switch rails (or other things) and they expose a toggle in their API, I could get the actuator to work on it.
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
What i mean by flipping underground belt is changing the underground belt direction ((hotkey "R"), not changing the orientation North-South to East West.
That doesn't require us to remove and placing, like you currently do with activator on belt and splitter. Or is it a different case for underground belt ?
Yeah, my request for rail is way too difficult. Sorry.
Besides, it's mainly for aesthetic purpose
I love trains..

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
There simply doesn't seem to be a script function that does the same as pressing R on underground belts. Or there is and I just completely missed it.waduk wrote:What i mean by flipping underground belt is changing the underground belt direction ((hotkey "R"), not changing the orientation North-South to East West.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
When you create an underground belt with create_entity you can set if the belt is input or output using the type parameter. So to reverse them you need to recreate them with the opposite value
Edit: I only read the last post, not the one above it, sorry. You obviously know this.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry
Oh, okay.
When i use your mod i thought you missed that feature, i never thought it was due script limitation. Sorry.
