Output signal on specifi wire ?

Don't know how to use a machine? Looking for efficient setups? Stuck in a mission?

Output signal on specifi wire ?

Post by Chico008 »

Hi
I'm playing Factorio + Dlc

Is there a way in combinator/comparator/etc to poutu a signal on a specific wire and not on both ?

I'm trying to output ingredient and receipe from a comparator, i want ingredient on green wire, receipe on red wire, but on green wire i also get receipe :/

how can i separate this ?

Both arithmetic and decider combinators have little R and G checkboxes on their output that can control this.

You cannot currently. The red/green tick boxes on the outputs control where the output gets the number from.

The only way to get ingredents and contents separately is to have two assemblers.

Yes, but that's not what the original post asked for, which was outputing from a combinator, not an assembler (also they said ingredient and recipe signal, which is possible to use simultaneously, as the assembler is smart enough not to use one of its own ingredients signal as its recipe).

I'm a bit confused by what you're asking, I've been using a green wire to read contents from an assembler and red to set recipe and I had no problems there.

Can you post a blueprint or screenshot so I can see what's happening?

I'm note reading content

i have constant for ingredient.
comparator :
check if ingredient or available and final receipe < certain amount
output
ingredient and receipe
ingredient are send to a blue requester
receipe to a assembing macine

problem is blue requester also get receipe as request

i'm looking for a way to seperate green/red ouput signal, but seems it's impossible.

Oh I see, just use two combinators. One output the ingredient, the other the recipe.

Thit was i was afraid of, too bad it's not possible with one combinator
