you can use multiple outlet funnels for crafts that yield multiple items
I’ve setup my fries like this
Setup Instructions
-
get your furnace and fuel it
-
place 2 output funnels preferrably right next to eachother (nakes the conveyor-ing easier)
-
Hook the outputs something like this
-
Add the logic gates to your Potato and Oil
You can stop here and it will work fine might want to slap on a trash can at the output that leads into storage so you don’t have an overflow problem
If you’re like me and like to overengineer the shit out of everything then you can add logic gates to handle Over- and Under-Flow
Over- / Under-Flow Protection logic
-
Set the source point somewhere close the storage funnel and add the Logic Gates behind the gates that regulate regular input (closer to the crafting machiene)
-
Invert the logic, so it only closes when there’s an item at the checkpoint
This logic ensures that if there is overflow, it will stop after it queues up the next craft, leading to it starting itself up again once the overflow is gone
When you’re not worried about underflow meaning you’re not worried about production of the base ingredients, you can stop here and it will work perfectly basically forever
If you do however have the logic gates to spare because you mass produce them anyway:
-
Set the source point of the gate infront of the input regulation gate and place it at the end of the gate-line
-
Do the same for any other ingredient line you have
-
Bask in the glory of a production line that never clogs or breaks down no matter what
-
ingredients stop at overflow gate
-
and continue once the overflow is cleared
Works forever!
unless you fuel source runs dry because you forgot to add more drills after expanding your factory by a factor of 10 but that never happened to anyone here right?.. right?
This can be used for basically anything.
It’s even simpler for recipes that don’t need an oven since you can just omit the fuel line
Hope it helps
Happy factory building
