Splitter Improvements - Multi-filter and Circuit controls

Post by 4wry »

Splitters are great, but they currently cannot be connected to the circuit network and only have one filter (unlike inserters).

The notion is rather straightforward, and would be extremely useful in various context, especially for Space Age.
  • Enable multiple filters (equivalent to inserters) - being able to split more that one item will be extremely useful for mixed belts and sushi builds
  • Allow to set blacklist vs whitelist (equivalent to inserters) - being able to exclude particular items would also be fantastic
Secondly, enabling Splitters to work with circuits would be amazing:
  • Set filter (signals)
  • Allow to control input and output priority via control signal (negative=left, 0= neutral, >0 = right)
