I'm sure, a lot of people have build these kind of things.

At first I build a station, that can supply materials for that outpost

After that its all just a firework!

Here's video to see it at work.

That's really cool even if similar has been done. I like the way you've looped that rail, it's also given me clues for another design.

Inserter Mini Mall

Not sure if this has been done before, but here's something I felt like doing tonight. It's a compact little mall for inserters. All inserters are built except for the burner. This is mainly designed to be available to be built at the start of green science. Think I finally worked out the bugs, but no promises. As a side note, if you mess with the constant combinator, make sure it's values for the advanced circuit and iron lanes are higher than the values on the corresponding circuit controlled belt.

Though I'd just share two little designs I'm pretty proud of while messing around with the logistics system in .14. While not necessarily the most optimized (feel free to tell me how many boilers I actually need), My backup generators are a decent use for a solitary oil patch that spawned far away from existing oil reserves.

And for something infinitely less useful, an Accumulator Array that uses all the Power Substation tiles. 4 Deciders and the colored lamps tell me how charged the array is without having to mouse over my arrays.

A 60-item smart warehouse to decrease bot latency and transition off generic storage chests. The wiring took a while, but I really like how it functions. Of course, looking at it now I'm torn between pushing the bottom deciders to hug the chests or maintain the symmetrical one tile overhang on the Roboports.

A small mixed smelter for iron and copper. The chest based circuit in the right lower corner decides randomly based on two conditions (enough ore and the amount of iron or copper) if it smelts iron or copper. Belts are build in loops due to the belt overflow mod.

I just realized I never posted my finished v0.16 science design for some reason, and it's pretty overdue now since the formulas are changed for v0.17, but here it is. It takes as input: green circuits, red circuits, iron plates, copper plates, steel, coal, water, petroleum, lubricant.

The 30 labs pictured are needed for 60 second projects, you only need the first row of 15 labs for 30s projects.

edit: Oh right, I never posted it because it has minor limiting problems with feeding green circuits into blue circuit production when going at full speed, which is a round of packs every 2 seconds. It could be totally resolved by upgrading one short run of yellow belt tiles in that area. It expects, if I remember correctly, 3 lanes of green circuits and one of red circuits, which in theory is enough to feed that part of the factory, but in practice (due to inserter prioritization problems), the lower assemblers end up very slightly starved of green circuits until the green circuit belt is upgraded to red belts, even though the adjacent belt remains backed up with green circuits, thus it will slightly slow down the rest of the design (with yellow belts as pictured). .... OR, you could put a few red inserters on a few of the lower module assemblers. I guess that would work too. Also, that splitter in the middle is supposed to have a filter set for blue science, oops. Edited into string.

My suggestion for a small (expandable) mall based on one feeder-belt.
The chest based circuit logic feeds the belt with 4 ressources (iron, geer wheels, steel and green circuits) one after another.
To get this started you need to put a chest in one of the four "logic" chests (on concrete) and already a lot of iron.
I'm still wondering how the chest logic could be replaced with combinators.
By the way the map editor has instant blueprinting and research can be unlocked.

I saw a cool design similar to this and decided to make my own.
To use you got to make sure the red train is in the front, and then prime the cargo wagon with U-235. It should start working on it's own past that.

This circular setup looks incredibly cool. Your design as well as the original design, which I remember too.
It would look even cooler, if you could somewhat randomize the direction of the trains. First clockwise, than counter-clockwise, then a quarter, then half of the circle, etc.
May be you could add a bunch of differently colored lamps like a light show as well. Don't know it it actually looks better, it's just an idea.

The randomized directions could be neat, though I don't know if I could fit train stops on both sides. I unfortunately barely remember how it works, just that I had to make latches for topping off the centrifuge's and a whole lot of stuff I don't remember to make sure only one train stop is active even if multiple stops are requesting mats. Could at least throw in some lights so you can see it at night, and I think a light next to the currently requesting stop could work too!

Uhhh... i don't know if it can be called "clever" but it definitely is cursed :lol: Soo... me and my pal were trying to figure out the best way to store prometheum for a round trip to solar system edge and back to nauvis. And... this had been born out of our corrupted brains.

Now hear me out, we may have missed some math along the way but this seems legit. The storage bay is 4x4 (16 tiles) and even at legendary tier it has only 50 slots. Prometheum chunks have a staggering stack size of 1. So quick maths gives us about 3.125 chunks per tile. Now, this calculation may be a bit off because there are undergrounds and corners involved, but a straight belt on average can store 8 chunks! That means this setup is over 2 times (not counting undergrounds) better than a legendary storage 8-)

It may make no sense for some, but if you want to store chunks and bring them back from your trips to solar system edge, this is the wae!

PS::We tested it with coal and managed to store around 3k coal in that :mrgreen:

But its practically like Space Platform asteroid mining disposal instead Science get refiltered in requester chests (could swap chests to belt feeding into Iron Chests)

16LABS
Base design- works though...


24 LABS


40 LABS
+ Updated 'ready to go' blueprint (small things changed - requester chest filtering/ Splitter priority lanes, all belts read)
NOTE: sometimes it can jam up inbetween research AND when missing multiple sci packs + mass spoilage (can always shift stuff around)

The new "diminishing returns" beacon behavior demands such a setup.

If you're wondering what that noise is, I also added a Geiger counter. If you start to see purple lights, you're doomed.
