Features

  1. Chests can:

    • Pickup items on the ground
    • Loot dead bodies, which is especially useful with mods like Powered by Biters which provide useful content for bugs corpses
  2. Three durable looter chests:

    1. early-game Basic Looting Chest made of iron, green chips, inserter, radar. Capacity is 20
    2. later Signals Looter Chest made of steel, red chips, filter inserter, radar (and optionally a laser turret). Capacity is 40
    3. mid-game Logistics Looter Chest made of steel, blue chips, filter inserter, radar (and optionally a laser turret). Capacity is 50
  3. Signals and Logistic Looters can be controlled by attached signals:

    • Shift center of search area:
      • X and Y for straight move
      • R and A for a circle move (check out blueprints below)
      • M and N for different radius by X and Y
    • Item signals to filter items to collect
    • Dot signal to disable filtering (if there are irrelevant item signals in circuit network)
    • Check signal to disable chest (value < 0)
  4. Startup and map settings to customise your experience:

    • Add laser turret to make Signals&Logistic Looters recipes cool yet challenging
