A specific priority system for Sweeper


Recommended Posts

The fact that Auto Sweeper using the priority, initially for dups, is so annoying. When I wanted to set level 9 for storing algae, I had trouble with loaders and receivers. Of course, I can adjust to make them do properly but this is way too much inconvenient. 

P/s: And an ability to pair loaders and receivers is also great, no need to care about priority in some ways.

I don't think this will be implemented, particularly as a lot of priority changes had been tested and implemented not too long ago, and all of which broke down or didn't work from the get-go, thus we still have the classic 1-9 system still with an additional, minor per-dupe priority modifier.

I will mention though, my 'solution' is to simply not use priority 9 for anything except very specific things such as coal gens, reserve 8 and 7 for high importance storages such as refrigerators, algae and coal. Of which you use an auto-sweeper to sweep said items to higher priority machines (they usually complete before dupes can interfere), and if absolutely necessary lock the machines, storage devices and sweepers into an isolated room and use rails for input and output.
