[Solved][Mod Search] outputing available robot count

Post by Satis »

Hi.

I thought they added so you could get the available robot counts without having to use an mod, but I cant seam to find any conditions that tells so.

Now I have played with an mod that did this for you, when an object was placed inside the logistic network, that you then could wire up to get the info.
I just cant find that mod anymore and cant remember what it was called either, so if some one could light the shed on this, it would be very appreciated.
If the mod is outdated, please still send me the link, since I should be able to convert/fix it to the current version. (Just don't wanna make an hole new mod ;) )

Kind regards
Satis

Didn't they add those signals to roboport buildings?
Better forum search for modders: Enclose your search term in quotes, eg. "font_color" or "custom-input" - it prevents the forum search from splitting on hypens and underscores, resulting in much more accurate results.

Yeah that's what I thought as well, but if I connect an roboport to an electric pole (for readout) and then an inserter, then the electric pole get all the data the of the logistic network that the roboport are connected with, like what's stored in the logistic chests.
When checking for conditions on the inserter, I could not find any signal that said available logistic robots or the construction robots.

EDIT:
I just found another post about it and it was me not looking correctly.
The Roboport do output those values as well, you just have to select what type of signal the Roboport should output. Silly me not seeing that :P

Anyway, this thread is no longer valid, but thanks for the response anyway :)

Could you link to that other post you found? It would be useful for anyone reading this post in future.
