More Long Inserters

by Kryzeth

Adds long inserter variants of nearly all detected inserters. Optionally also adds burner versions of the bulk and stack inserters. Fully compatible with Bobs Logistics, Artisanal Reskins, Krastorio 2, and many more! Incompatible with the inserter overhaul setting in Bobs Logistics.

i [Question/Answered] Curious about no 5Dim support?

a month ago

As stated, I would like to understand why there is no support for 5Dim. I'm checking out the mod now, and it does not have extra tiers of long handed inserters, which seems like a missed opportunity. If support for 5Dim is too hard, or weird, or whatever, I don't expect a compatibility update. So just wondering what's up with the 2 mods not working together. :)

ahhhhh, actually, looking at the setting for 5Dim, if I'm understanding correctly, it kooks like one of the research options allow to change the length of pickup, so allowing anything to be a long inserter.
.... My bad, didn't check settings first. x.x

I don't think that's included with 5dims by default (that sounds like a bob's adjustable inserters thing, which is apparently force-enabled in the 5dim's modpack in case you are running that modpack)

But basically, everything 5dim's transport does conflicts with what More Long Inserters is trying to do. It adds 10 tiers of both standard and long-handed inserters (so no need for MLI compat to make long variants) and changes the menu sorting/grouping of the inserters (thus breaking the MLI compat that attempts to do the same thing with every other inserter mod apart from 5dim's)

I don't think there's any universe where 5dim's 10 tiers of inserters will look well with any other inserter mod (including MLI) since it already fills up all 10 slots per row, so I'd rather just not bother trying to make it work. I would need an entirely new sorting logic to make it work, and even then, I don't think it would look any better than just running 5dim's + other inserter mods, without MLI.

Yep, I'm using 5Dim's mod pack. Thanks for the reply! I apologize that I didn't catch all the moving pieces, so to speak, earlier. Something in the modpack is disabling the tiers of long handed inserters, which is why I went looking for your mod. Didn't realized the modpack was put together nicely. :O Thanks again, and I love your mod!

Hm, sounds like Bobs Adjustable Inserters, since I didn't see any settings from 5dim's end; it's probably catching all the "long" inserters and removing them in favor of its own tech tree (which by the end of it, basically allows any type of inserter to pick up and drop off anywhere in a 3x3 or 5x5 radius, something crazy like that, dependent on its own settings)

Glad to hear that you've enjoyed it in other playthroughs, at least! :D
