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

Asteroid collector not responding to circuit network

Post by Kara Silver »

I built a space station and used decider combinators for the asteroid collectors to only collect the ones I need. All combinators are set to <300. The collectors are set to set filters according to the network.
For a while it worked but it doesn't anymore and I don't understand. What went wrong? Can someone help me?

You are bypassing the whole combinator setup with the circuit wire connecting the input to the output.

Thank you very much. I was questioning my sanity. I must have connected it by accident.
Now I know what to look out for.

I suggest to use another circut color for data you read and another for control signal (not everywhere possible, but mostly). This will help you to notice where you connected wrong network.

Thanks vor the tipp. I am always a little bit anxious about the different colors ^^
