superhanz Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Essentially I want my dupes to work the oil refinery until the tank is full. Then disable the refinery until the tank is 50%ish empty. This should work with a simple memory chip or xor chip automation. I'm just too sick with flu to figure it out Another use for this would be a clean water tank. Germy water fills up. Then germs die with chlorine. Then sensor sends signal to empty tanks. Then with xor or memory toggle tanks fill up again with germy water. And so on. I know Francis has done this, but I also can't find the video where he builds it anymore Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/114942-how-to-use-automation-for-filling-up-tank-100-and-then-disabling-refinery-until-tank-hits-50/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

psusi Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Why force the tank to fill up and then empty out? Just use a valve set to 2 kg/s and a germ sensor to either let the clean water out, or send the germy water back to the tank.

If your germy water is from bathrooms then that's all the time you need to kill germs in a reservoir. Check out my simple bathroom loop design I posted early this week Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/114942-how-to-use-automation-for-filling-up-tank-100-and-then-disabling-refinery-until-tank-hits-50/#findComment-1298573 Share on other sites More sharing options...
