i Linked Block Multiple Outputs

3 years ago
(updated 3 years ago)

There is a little bit a strane behavior with the linked Blocks.
If you have in a Production Block multiple requested items for example Electronic Circuits, Iron Gears and Iron Plates and make a Subblock, where you produce all of it the Block will export Circuits and Gears, but no plates.
I mean a Product used in the Subblock isn't exported, but all Products.

I don't know, if in this case it would be good to also export plates.
I think it would be good, but i don't know, if that is default wanted, or like an option to only export one product or something of this lines.

Thanks realy mutch for the Mod

hello
I did not understand the problem

Sorry for my late response. I didn't check, if you answered.

I tried to upload a Production line to show, what i mean, but there seams to be a bug, if you tweak the Production Percent it doesn't get saved in the Production line.

Since it seems not to work to upload it in the feature in the mod i try to explain better, what i mean:
In a Production line i've got for example following blocks:

  • Main output block:
    • Speed Module 1
  • Circuits (Linked Block)
    • Advanced Circuit
    • Electronic Circuit

In this case the circuit block only exports Advanced Circuit

Another Production line:

  • Main output block:
    • Logistic Science Pack
  • Ingredient Block (Linked Block)
    • Transport Belt
    • Inserter

In this case the ingreadient block exports Transport Belts and Inserters

I think it can be handy, if there is an option to export in a linked Block also the in this Block used Products.

I hope this explains what i mean.

Thanks for trying to understand. I guess Pictures would be easyer...

When I try the Iron didn't get exported. Thats weird.
I'd like it like your picture is...

Depending on the order i add the recepies or if i enter the value in unlinked mode i get it working, but it doesn't always export 'intermediate' Products.

in linked block
Ctrl+click: set linked intermediate product
Shift+click: remove linked intermediate product
