Quantum Resource Distribution

by eliont

Special chest can send placed items to ship quantum storage unit and retrieve from it. Also works for player inventory (optional). It's make resource management more like RTS for playing combat-oriented settings/mods. Compatible with multi-surface mods like Space Exploration - item transportation works on surface, but not between them. Should be UPS-friendly because using events to track entities, not find_entities_filtered.

I don't know how I see these post with people talking about using 10000's of these chests.

I got 2k most of them being collectors (not requesting any items) I often find many requests(supply chests) going unfilled shutting down my factory

Is there a setting I'm missing?

When there are more then 500 chests to avoid massive UPS lost only first 500 of them processed then queue shifts, but yeah, if you have more then 2K then it's possible to stale if not buffered enought. IDK how are 10000, i have experienced UPS drop from 60 to 40 at 1000 chests already (prior to fix).

Try to reduce chests to a pair per production block, or you can try to combine this mod with https://mods.factorio.com/mod/magic-box

It would be perfect if the two could be combined. For example, magic-box could be stored directly in Quantum Resource Distribution.
Under certain modules, the 100 storage spaces of the magic-box are completely insufficient.
