It would be a separate port and each wire of the ribbon would enable a different recipie. Would be amazing to control the smelter or electric grill. Now imagine a smart fridge that activates a recipe if it gets too low and turns it off when full 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than having an idividual grill for each recipie. But maybe you could have more than one recipie tied to a single cable of the ribbon. 1 hour ago, Steve8 said: Now imagine a smart fridge that activates a recipe if it gets too low and turns it off when full That was the idea behind it. We just need the fridge to work like the smart battery. Also i wanted more buildings to accept a full automation ribbon. Fabricators are perfect for that.

pether Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) I think another must-have related to logic ribbons would be ALL and ANY gates. Both 2-tiles in size, with ribbon input and logic wire output. ALL gate would send green signal if all bits in the ribbon were green, and ANY - well, if any of the bits was green. In fact the same as AND and OR, but working for four input values gathered in the ribbon. Yes, I know I can use ribbon readers and existing gates, but this would take 20 tiles of space instead of 2 - big difference in case of more advanced logic systems Edited February 19, 2020 by pether 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plotmissed Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I wish Sweepy wouldn’t be tied to it’s dock but instead would use any dock available to recharge. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine's just doing a little dance in front of the full dock and no one seems to be unloading it.

Mine's just doing a little dance in front of the full dock and no one seems to be unloading it. That's kinda the problem. Dupes will grab materials from Sweepy's dock when they need it, but you can't just click a button and have everything fall out. So.. sweepy passes over a hatch egg. It ends up in Sweepy's docking station... and stays there. Until you have some other container with a higher priority that gets a dupe to go grab it. But, remember, you can't use "sweep only" so now your dupes are grabbing ALL THE EGGs and carrying them to the storage bin you built to get the egg out of Sweepy... On a somewhat related note.. Sweepy will also pick up bottles of liquid or gas canisters. Which can be somewhat interesting to deal with as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like the stuff waiting in the docking station should be tagged as "sweepable". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, or an egg cracker so you could fully automate omlette production. Adding another building that would have unique purpose while working with the hammer would be also nice, but it is easier said than done I think... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurgel Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Anybody know how top get rid of a sweepy bot? Deconstructing the base-station does not do it. Do I have to melt this thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggs crack on their own if left in a storage for 10 cycles. Raw eggs heated to 71C turns to omelette without needing a grill.

I agree, hammering an egg to crack it is not a game changer, but with it, the hammer could be used in any other way than making music and it doesn't require adding anything new to the game only to make hammer work. Also - turning it into slower, 1-tile rock crusher would be something, as said above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
