    If anyone is wondering, at the Asteroid collection section, the whole belt has a yellow graphic around it. It's done by connecting a wire to a single belt piece, and setting the circuit settings to read belt contents AND "Hold (all belts)".
    After 175 hours, spaceship design was the first scenario where I really needed to start learning circuits. It has quite a learning curve, even after watching a few videos.

    For asteroid collectors I actually went with something similar, but more complicated. Asteroid collectors collect in a ratio of 11/11/22 and then inserts read the belt. This way the collectors are a storage container as well.

      @@vitaliyvorobyov2942each collector has an output for their contents, and can take an input to set the mirror filters.
      This is how I did it:
      Take the content with a wire, pass it through a logic gate (need to do a < operation). For each *, if * < (storage/3) output each *. With this, you can check for every asteroid type with a single combinator. There’s the edge case for when there’s zero asteroids of a type, so you need an additional input for 1,1,1,1 of each type, using a constant; then you use constant/3 + 1 for the condition.
      You take that output and throw it back to the corresponding collector. You’ll need to fiddle with the cable colors to prevent dirty data from coming in. Red for out, green for in, then green from the constant to the combinator, so it doesn’t go to the collector.
      With similar tech you could count the contents of all of them and treat it globally, if you don’t want to use so many combinators.
      Afterwards, you set a similar combinator but to read the contents of the belt, to make sure it doesn’t overflow. Instead if setting the filter for the collectors, you set the filter for the inserters taking stuff out of them. Similar to what Nilaus is doing.

      yea did the same though I stayed with a 1:1:1 ratio for everything as you struggle with ice asteroids near aquillo for example.
      @@vitaliyvorobyov2942 you need a decider combinator for each arm, I put a green wire from the arm to the input of it and a red wire from the output to the arm then you need a signal with the amount of asteroids you want of each type, a constant combinator is easiest, and connect it with a red wire to the input of the decider. Inside the decider you set every field to "each", that yellow asterix symbol, and compare if the red signal is greater than the green. Also don't forget to set the arms on read contents aswell as set filter.
      Now you'd use Nilaus system but instead of connecting it to the arms you connect it to the inserters and activate "set filters" inside the inserters

    I added some circuit logic to my ice crusher that switches it to the advanced recipe only when calcite falls below a threshold. I set a constant combinator to the basic recipe at a value of 2, and a decider that outputs the advanced recipe at 1, and a selector sorted by ascending. When the decider calcite condition is met it switches to calcite, and when it's done it switches back.

    One thing that simplified signals on spaceships for me - you can use electric poles for wires! of course, asteroid chunks should never be in the hub anyways, but just in case they are I never let wires dealing with asteroid signals touch the hub, they go along electric poles. Also makes it possible to place combinators far away from the hub.

      @theral056 4 дні тому

      I just ship up those new burner towers (that burn like a nuclear reactor) and set up a bit of power production fed right from the hub, just 5 rockets for the bits power and a bit of solid fuel, another 1 for an inserter, and then another one for 50 lasers -- and like 5-6 for foundation. Basically just one round of rocket launches, so very quick to set up. Lasers aren't great vs mediums, but if you slap 50 on such a small platform they will melt through mediums quite fine and have nice range since they come in epic quality (because fulgora of course). Then you can just keep expanding the platform as needed over time. Always build a bit further out than intended and slap down lasers as temporary defense. It's ultra safe and only costs some solid fuel upkeep, which is typically clogging up my recyclers anyway, so sending it to space is actually a neat way to get rid of it :)
      I'm thinking those towers will be quite a good alternative to nuclear reactors, as you can send "free" solid fuel from fulgora as you desire and while in space you can turn any excess carbon rock (of which I usually have a lot of excess) into some additional fuel. Less prone to total failure than nuclear, as you virtually can not run out entirely. I favor efficiency modules on spaceships too, so power demand is quite low for a proper ship, only the starting phase when everything is defended by lasers is fuel intensive, but that doesn't matter as I can restock fuel at will.
      I find that a lot easier than building a functional ship and flying to fulgora -- there's not a lot going on in orbit around fulgora, but travelling there is dodgy without proper defenses.

  • @4wry
    @4wry 5 днів тому +3

    Instead of using a decider combinator for each asteroid a very simple way of controlling the asteroid intake is using a single arithmetic combinator + a constant combinator. The arithmetic one will read the belt and multiply each by -1 and output each, the constant combinator will connect to the output and contain the max. positive values. In this case the setting of the filters is the difference while >0. Disposal can be controlled using a decider combinator for items

      Wire your storage area (belts or main hub, depending how you design your ship) to the input of an arithmatic combinator. Set the math to "each" times -1, and output to "each". Wire the output of that combinator to the grabbers to set their filters. At this point, you'll end up with *everything* on the belt, but negative amounts, so the filters will be blank.
      Now add a constant combinator and set it up with how many of each thing you wire. Wire this to the *output* of the arithmatic combinator. When a circuit has multiple things providing data, all that data gets added. So the positive number in your constant combinator get added to the negative values coming out of the arithmatic combinator. If your number is higher than the amount stored, that will mean it ends up with a positive value for that item, and it'll show up in the filters of the grabbers.
      Do *not* wire the storage to the *output* of the arithmatic combinator or you'll have a bad day.

    Regarding Nuclear Power - you are wasting fuel with your setup :( A few points:
    - the temperature threshold should be slightly higher than 500, because there are losses down the pipes
    - use either a basic or fast inserted and override stack size to 1 because you don't need to insert 12 cells, you need only one
    - you don't need a filter for nuclear fuel HOWEVER, a cool trick I use is:
    - connect Power Plant to inserter and select "read fuel" on the Power Plant
    - on the inserter select "Set Filters" and set the filters to "Blacklist"
    - this will ensure that you only get 1 Fuel Cell inside the reactor at ALL TIMES if the temperature drops below the threshold

    On the inner planet ship, right below the cargo bays you have metallic/carbon crushers set up. I think there are two green inserters which dont do anything

    My first ship made it to Fulfora without incident, though I gave it uranium ammo.
    Now, several hours later while figuring out how Fulg works it started running out of ammo...
    I only had one smelter on board and no rocket to get to it.
    I'm watching it slowly get pummeled to death by 'roids.

    Hey, I just spent all last night designing my deep space ship as well. I found a couple tricks extra tricks that might be helpful.
    1. The asteroid recycling recipe for the crushers is very powerful. I have an asteroid loop belt like you do but I allow anything on the belt and then recycle to what I actually want. In my case I allow a total of 200 total asteroids of any type on the belt and then convert any asteroid type I have more than 50 of. This lets you use asteroids of any type to run your ship and you can build up huge buffers of any asteroids you come across in your catchers and belts.
    2. You can now use circuit network to monitor the items actually loaded into an assembler and this is a great way to manage priority like when you need both basic and advanced crushing recipes (like sulfur + carbon). In this example you can limit the inserter from the basic carbon crusher so it only runs when the amount of carbon drops due to the advanced recipe not keeping up.
    I'm still unlocking the new stack inserters, but they seem like they will be helpful for improving the density of items on a belt (particularly for ammo and maybe asteroids).
