Hey at around @6:23 you put down a ton of storage chests and they were being filled with an individual thing each. Did you cut the process of selecting each individual storage box to a specific item? ~@11:23 when you pulled out your refineries, you didn't have that selected in the logistic slot, so I'm a little confused how you got all the red and green circuits to bot to the same places (!) ~@12:33 the steel storage chest didn't have steel selected either... what is this voodoo you do? I have all my storage chests (and passive provider chests) linked to my logistic system so I can keep track on what to trash or not (I'm on Fulgora atm trying to get its Science research opened...) like what you did on the original small mall build so many weeks ago... but that looks wrong now, given what you're doing (!) at least with the storage chests...
This is a feature of how bots work. Checking the storage chest wiki bots will fill storage chests in this order 1. Storage chests with a matching filter 2. Storage chests with a matching inventory 3. Storage chests with no filter and no inventory 4. Storage chests with no filter and a mismatched inventory Since Jar placed down more chests than types of items he has to store (as you can see at 11:23 there are still empty chests) the bots stopped at step 2, filling storage chests with the matching inventory to the item that they carry. As for Fulgora, all items in all logistics chests will show up in the roboports logistics network. By connecting some cuircuits to the roboports, you can trash only items over X ammount in the logistics network. For example, ( roboport ) >>> ( decider combinator, "for [each] > #, output [each]" ) >>> (arithmatic combinator, "[each] - # = [each]" ) >>> (requester chest, "set requests from circuit network" ) Hope this helps!
@@EXOgreenMC Thanks a lot EXO, I didn't realize I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know that the wiki actually spoke to this (!) I only knew, I didn't know a lot about Factorio, so I asked... Btw, noted and saved your reply text. I will replicate your suggestion and be less encumbered as I'm trying to get my newly minted rare recyclers and EM Plants to help me conquer my newly found quality issues (I always want more and more!) I want rare tungsten carbide stuff to build some machines of higher quality... maybe the foundry and the big mining drills, idk, and plate for coming soon for meh: fusion reactors... but I think that'll just get spoiled 😁
@@EXOgreenMC I learned yesterday on the Factorio discord, it's more parsimonious and less wasting of resources to make quality foundries instead of making quality components first, and recycle them instead going up the quality chain... Is that your read too?
@@Logically_Fallacious Thought I replied to this, but must have missed it. Im still new to quality, so I havent figured out the best way to do it. I basically didnt touch quality until I had unlocked legendary quality on gleba, and was making legendary quality3 modules. Well, except for quality armor and components. Since all the products can come from machines with quality, I would just add a second line coming off them that only outputs quality modules. then feed those quality ingredients into a foundry with quality mods for a chance to get even higher quality.
@@EXOgreenMC It's possible, I learned so much yesterday, I saturated me little brain. When that happens there are marbles that may fall out of my ears that I don't notice to pick up and put back... Sry, if I asked the same question. Enjoy.
