Thanks for response.

So in your second example, it would be

[..]
if (belt_signal>0 and each_value==-1) or (belt_signal==0 and each_value==-2) then output += (each_signal, value_switch ? each_value : 1)
[..]


I had to run this through my head a number of times. This does make sense. I think ...

I have read the "Signal Switch"-Section in the circuit network cookbook in the wiki and I am trying to understand what it is doing. It exploits the special behaviour of the "each" signal when used as an output, but I don't fully understand how it works.

My first guess is that each "each"-test has ...

Thank you for your response: I think I understand: The assembling machine in my blueprint has it's recipe set by a circuit network. So sometimes it does not have a recipe set. If I copy the machine while a recipe is set it works, if I copy the machine while is does not have a recipe set, I cannot ...

Starting with the following blueprint:

there is one tick during which the items brought by the inserter to the AM are not visible to the circuitry due to delay introduced by the isolating combinator.

Thank you very much. I never guessed that this could be the problem.

I parameterized to blueprint so now it should work with any item ...

I build a small blueprint that takes Quality Modules 2 as input and upgrades them until they are legendary.

This is how it looks like:

So far I typically used a row of science labs with two belts on each side and 4 inserters (2xyellow, 2xred) for each lab to feed them. However now I thought that there must be a better option and created a sushi belt. While I found a number of similar creations, the ones I found were a little ...

Here is yet another solar array:

Size: 42x42
Space efficiency (counting solar panels, batteries and roboport as "useful component"): ~98,87% (1744:1764)
Space efficiency (counting solar panels and batteries as "useful component"): ~98,07% (1730:1764)
Battery/solar array ratio: 117/140 = 0,835 ...
