Move Full Stacks

by Kingdud

Rather than revert to rediculously fast inserters this mod allows stack inserters to grab whole stacks at a time. There are three upgrade levels, the first for grabbing stacks of 50 (so, generally, an entire stack of ore in one rotation). The next is for stacks of 100, and 200. All three researches require space science. The Factorio Mod API doesn't allow changing the base capacity of an inserter, so ALL stack inserters will get this upgrade. This is a limitation of the game. Sorry.

Hey do you think you can update it for the new update ?
I love this mod :).

I still haven't gone to Aquilo in my own playthrough (some of that is life, some of that is me restarting because my spaghetti / Quality bloat got to me). I don't plan to update any of my mods until after I beat a vanilla playthrough. That being said, I made the source code available so anyone could do what I did: teach themselves how to make the thing they wanted to make.

Also, for this mod specifically, I was going to change it on update to add a whole new inserter that had a 200 stack size. That way the basic inserters wouldn't have weird increases like they do now. I don't know whether it makes more sense to leave this mod as-is and make a whole new mod, or if the space age update provides a clean breakpoint where ppl without the expansion can use this version, and the SA ppl will get the newer one...I need to do some research. But I've got like 10 other things I need to do (including buying a house) IRL first. So...yeah. I made the source code available because I knew I wasn't mentally rigged to handle supporting things. :p

Thanks for the response. If you can update it when you can fine, if not no worries :).

Hi. I regret to inform you that I will not be updating this mod, or any other, ever again. Why? Because on the Factorio forums a post I made was moderated out of existence. This post replied to a personal insult from another user, which was allowed to stand. If my voice is going to be taken away in self defense, and my attacker allowed to persist, even for 30 minutes, I will not help these bastards sell more copies of their game. End of story. I am sorry you have to suffer, but I refuse to be an abuse victim, and silencing someone after they get attacked? That's abuse.
