Most likely works as intended,

I’ll have a look at this option. Thanks for the tip !

Hello everyone,

Is it normal than my chain signal in the middle of the intersectinon is not working?
?

Secondly an option for:

"request inefficient mixed loads" : robots ask for anything that (is fully supplied) and would launch a full rocket, THEN requests remaining needed items (that can currently be fullfilled) in random order (launching if the next item wouldn't fit).
vs "launch surplus ...

The best "solution" is probably to just eat the cost of launching partially filled rockets or sending a full rocket load of any requested item.

You're not thinking! It would produce a lot of pollution and waste.

Hello everyone !

The setup UI of the Rocket Silo shows us on the right the Space Platform Logistic requests. This panel shows us many places where icon of currently serving requests are showed.

On this screenshot, only one request is served. Other requests are served by other ...

Steps to reproduce :

Setup :

- create a logistic request on a space platform hub. Set a non default surface (IE : create a request for stones, imported from Vulcanus, or tungsten from Gleba)
- give it a name (to create a global requests group)
- put a requester chest somewhere / use the surface ...

I agree

Remote driving is only usefull when in manual mode.

In automatic mode, you can't drive the train, locally or remotely. And requesting the train to go somewhere with ctrl+click is not manual driving. It’s only requesting temporary stop on the schedule.

Automatic driving checks for signals and track ...

So, is it the wanted behavior ?

I didn’t success at driving remotely a fuel-empty train. It stays stuck as long as I don’t put fuel in it. I can either drive it by entering it (and it is slow) ”physically”, or by adding fuel, which allows it to be driven remotely. Did I miss something?

Hello 🙂

I would like to know if it was expected that when a space platform request only one item, transmit it to the silo on the ground, the silo requested a complete stack and send it to the space platform ?

The problem is that in this case I need a rocket per stack when I need only one belt ...

Thanks for the reply ! As everyone, I appreciate your commitment

In this case, would it be possible, maybe one day, to consider this as a feature request ? Or is it either a wanted non feature or a hard technical limitation ?

I don't have any construction bot. I use the distant view to plan my setup.

In the distant view, when I try to build a ghost train stop on a ghost rail :
- there is no green square showing / hinting me where to put the (ghost) stop. These hints show for a nearby already built track
- there is no ...

The swith off button could be next to the personnal roboport switch off button (and hidden if desired like all the other tools buttons).

Another use case is when I want to build a zone in an outpost : I copy / paste a block of stuffs, then I put in a logistic chest near a roboport all the stuffs needed to build the zone.

Now, if there is also logistic robots in the robotport, they put back all the stuffs I delivered in the box back ...

You should just change the label km/h into m/h (or mph if yout want some kind of localization)

Are you sure ? On the image, I can see nice plates well sharpened, but the inserter is still pixelized.



Edit : I'm playing 0.15.32

This would need a load of additional work from the graphics team

Sure, but they can pick only what they want I hope that the HD work has not already been done, so that they can pick whatever they want in my suggestion.

TL;DR
Each inserter has a slighty different shape and look behavior (as well as a different color). The faster, the bigger the base. With fancy effects.

What ?
While you are at upgrading graphics in HD, you could improve the look of the inserters. I'm not talking about gameplay. "bigger" only ...
