@Nilaus I disagree with your design choice to limit a buffer of 40 U-235. I think you would be better off waiting a bit longer and letting the buffer of the centrifuge fill up fully so that the machine is always going to run afterwards without any pauses.

Actually you can build a kovarex with no combinators and no extra spend resources in the loop . You just need a inserter with stacksize one, activated when a stackinserter removes u238 . Since only 2 u238 will get produced the condition is only true once for each cycle . Also the stackinserter will always remove u238 fervor to u235

Instead of doing it with the complicated combinator thing, you can achieve the same results by just controlling stack sizes. Have the output of U-235 go into a chest using a stack inserter set to 10. Have another stack inserter take it out also set to 10 and feed that back into the centrifuge. Set a condition that only allows it to pick up when the chest contains 10 or more U-235. Set a third fast inserter with a stack size forced to one to only pick up when the U-235 in the chest is equal to 1, and that’s your output.

I prefer this variation on the design, which uses an additional arithmetic combinator, and swaps the decider for an arithmetic. It's slightly more complex, but has these advantages: 1) Easier to seed, simply put the amount you want in the system (anywhere between 40-80 U-235) into the input of the centrifuge. 2) System will always maintain the total cumulative amount of U-235 you've manually placed in the input and will expel any surplus into the output chest. Seeding with 80 U-235 allows 100% uptime on processing, or you can start with 40 as soon as you have it then add additional 40 as you get it into the system to reduce the downtime between cycles. Just drop extra into the input of the machine as you desire. 3) No surplus U-235 sitting on belt unused, it's all either in input buffer waiting to start the next production cycle immediately, or it's put into the output chest 4) No splitter priority shenanigans to remove extra from the system, it's 100% circuit controlled by counting inputs/outputs. 5) Almost(?) never accidentally overfills centrifuge above the initial seeded amount (like was seen in this video) because of number 4 and the separation between measuring output and input inserters. It's based on the idea of adding the negative value of U-235 we take out of the centrifuge as well as a negative of what leaves the system (into output chest). The result should always maintain a net 0 between productions cycles. Using negatives simplifies the wiring color separation for the condition/read mode so we can use a single wire to the yellow inserter. All additions (including of negative numbers) are done directly on the wire. Output is limited by the logistics network total U-235 amount so you won't overproduce.

I just gave your blueprint a try and found that it doesn't work. I put 40 U-235 into the Centrifuge, and it immediately stalled after completing one cycle. The Stack Filter Inserter refuses to take any U-235 out of the Centrifuge, with a status of "Disabled by control behavior," even though its mode of operation is set to "None."

Last comment: the circuit build doesn't work with red belts, i think that because of red belts being slower, the stack inserters decide to swing without a full hand or something and it causes the items to pile up and end up on the wrong side of the splitter. This happens after 2 or 3 iterations. So you may want to update the blueprint on pastebin (nuclear masterclass one) to blue belts

It works with red belts if you limit the output 235 inserter stack size to 5 .. that forces it to make more swings, which seems to give the top inserter enough time to swing and alleviate the jamming problem with the splitter. Note that I also set the input 235 inserter to have a stack size of 10, to avoid the off-by-one issues.

You could limit stack size on picking up inserter to 10 (or 5, any divisor of 40), so it will swing instead of picking up 41th uranium. Outserter in this case should be limited also, to not cause backlog.

If you want a count-perfect one, set the first decider combinator to anything < 39 | output u-235 so it'll count to 40 including the math tick. Since you're doing -20 * hand contents that has 2, you will then have a -40 on output so it'll be 0 on the combinator allowing the input inserter to swing again.

Thank you Nilaus ! I've watched a lot of your masterclasses and playthroughs and i've learned a lot! Inspired by your design on Kovarex enrichment i've done something similar but without belts on the Uranium 235 side. I'm using steel chest instead. I have a slow yellow inserter set to stacks of 1 with a condition to activate only when there's more than 10 uranium 235 in the chest, that's my uranium profits , for continuing the process i have a stack inserter pulling from the same chest set to stacks of ten. Since the yellow is much slower it cant keep up with the stack inserter and only takes 1, or 2 (if there's productivity bonus) i've ran a few test and this hasnt failed yet so i believe its a simpler design. Nevertheless credits to you and your teaching without wich i wouldnt be able to think of this :D keep up the great work !

20:10 there is no tick of calculation that causes the 1 extra to be picked up, the machine does what you tell it to do. you tell it to stop picking up uranium when the amount is higher then 40 (uranium > 40) lowering the amount to 39 wil solve this issue or changing the uranium > 40 to uranium ≥ 40

I downvoted his video and upvoted this one because this is succinct, compact and explains well how this setup works. Whatever the heck that other guy is doing makes me bored quickly and doesn't teach me how to do stuff. I really appreciate how you explained the setup from start to finish and stayed focused on the topic at hand rather than toying with the game halfway thru the session like he does.

Circuit build advantage: Makes excess available as soon as possible. It's drawback: It pauses each cycle. First build advantage: It never stops. It's drawback: Takes a long time to provide excess. So the more time you give it, the better becomes the build without circuits, as it doesn't pause. The advantage of the circuit build is really only meaningful at the "early" game, where it saves you from picking up excess manually.

I have made something that runs on 40/80 U235, put in manually. The excess U235 is filtered out, 1 or 2 U235. No delays, no excess U235 in the system. Uses productivity modules and beacons with speed modules. I also built in a few fail-safes so cutting of power or power shortage doesn't affect it. When the output belt is full the system stops, belt clear starts up again. Been running it for a while now and encountered no problems (so far). The blueprint is added. 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

I like kovarex, because I think there is more room for creativity than many other builds. My kovarex uses a pair. The 40 u235 is transferred between them with stack inserters. The u238 is dropped by a filter inserter and taken using a fast inserter on a belt which is looped and refilled by belt coming from miners. The 1 extra plus the one from productivity is dealt done by a filter inserter controlled by combinators: -To control the stack size I have one combinator to count (10 u238 taken out), one combinator to output a "1" on that 5th cycle and one constant to change it to 1 and 2 instead of 0 and 1 -To control the enable I have one combinator that separates the counter signal from the pulse so I can still use the pulse.

Centrifuge > requestor box > centrifuge etc. one of the requesters has a provider and a sorter arm programmed to pull U-235 when there is over 400 in the box. The chained requestors will be refilled with, like, 200 U-238 to keep things moving. I think I have eight in the chain. Works pretty good.

I've just tried to build the 12-beacon circuit-driven design in an admittedly mod-rich environment, so maybe one of those is affecting behaviour, but I find that the top-left inserter, putting U-235 into the centrifuge, does not begin to swing until the centrifuge has been emptied. It sits there in the "Waiting for space in destination" state, until all the U-235 product has been taken out. There is not enough belt storage for the centrifuge to empty entirely, though, and so the splitter "overflows", taking out more than just the one U-235 produced in that cycle. This is Factorio version 1.1.80 on Steam/Linux.

I like this a lot. An alternative to using a fast inserter to input 235 would be to limit the stack size of a stack inserter. Also, I would look at limiting (or setting up an alarm) the 235 to only run kovarex if you have enough in the logistic system. You don't want to accidentally be sitting there with thousands of -238 but not enough 235- 235 but not enough 238 to make fuel cells. Restarting nuclear power by hand is a pain.

I found that if you use boxes on the output instead of a belt, it's simpler and easy to make reliable. Set the stack size of a filtered U235 inserter to 10 into a box . Have another inserter with stack size 10 insert from there into a second box with a condition to only operate >=10. Then have an inserter moving that back into the centrifuge. Have a final inserter pull from the box to a belt only if the contents % 10 != 0 (using an arithmetic combinator). (So it isn't on if the box is empty, which means the stack 10 inserter always wins.) If you put 40 U235 into the input, this always keeps exactly 40 U235 occupied, with a slight transfer delay. Later, if you add exactly 40 more, it works the same, but with no delay for the transfer.

Could you just take the enriched output, multiple that by -1 and then send that back to the input inserter? Edit I'm just realized, if it produces 1 extra enriched ore, you'll slowly trend to a negative number and eventually have the same problem where all your ore is tied up in the machine waiting to be processed.

Previously I used some nifty circuit logic myself on this, but since quite a while I'm just happy with the right (circuit-less) solution despite the extra 40 U235 per processing plant. I start with just one or two (depending on the amount of U235 avaiable), let it fill itself up, then (upon a later visit) add a 2nd/3rd/4th/... processing plant and maybe add extra U235 (from the centrifuges) to the cycle and so on. Works good enough without modules (or with weaker modules and/or less beacons) too. Sure it's slower, but by the time the Kovarex process is researched, I usually have way more than 40 U235 stockpiled and gain more than enough to feed my reactors.

Nilaus, I just wanna say that your "efficient" Kovarex Enrichment Process doesn't work unless you're using blue belts and a blue splitter (as you did in the video). The default design of yours uses red belts and red splitters, and after a while (I just built it), you'll lose 1 uranium-235 to the chest, because the splitter doesn't let the items through fast enough, so it get stucks for a second, and in that second one or two or three uranium-235 go into the chest (which is usually one too many), and thus after a few rotations, the process will stop because there'll only be 39/40 uranium-235 in the centrifuge. So you HAVE to use blue belts and a blue splitter for the efficient design, otherwise just use the "inefficient" one that he shown first in the video (haven't tested that though but it should work). I'm not sure if that was an oversight or not, but since you said multiple people tested it along with you and it worked, that seems like a lie, since I literally just now took the blueprint and slapped down the default design with the red belts and a red splitter and it didn't work. Your testers seem to not really be testing anything.

For red belt you can have the stack inserter be at stack size 8 max, anything above 8 breaks it. With blue belts you can have it at the full 12 stack size. I've discovered this completely by accident. I built the setup when I had stack inserters at 8 stack size and it was running for a good while without issues, but when I researched the next capacity bonus it quickly broke. After some testing I got to this conclusion.

another alternative is to output with white inserter onto a belt, from there grab it with a stack inserter with stack size >1 into any non logistic chest, and from that chest have stack inserter with stack size =10 insert back into the centrifuge if there is >10 u235 in the chest, and with any inserter take out into a logistics chest if there is 1 u235. it takes a bit more space, one extra any chest and one extra any inserter, but no circuit magic is required, aside of reading contents of a chest to enable/disable inserters.

I found a blueprint once with a build that worked with only a wire, a condition and a limit on one inserter. Specifically an output with stack limited of 1 u235 (the excess) that triggered on the only one full stack output of u238. i believe it was with boxes for the instant move instead of belts but it would steadily always place the excess into another box with not even a single extra u235 in the centrifuge. There was a catch however. It could not account for the bonus of productivity modules as it wouldnt trigger because the bonus is only a u235 but you could still speed it up a ton

Curious. Since the first combinator randomly outputs a signal of 41 instead of 40 and the second combinator always puts out a signal of -40, won't the first combinator eventually tick up high enough because of the residuals that it eventually causes the connected inserter to stop functioning altogether? If so, how do you cope with that?

Edit: Oh, I finally see what's going on. It's multiplying the 2 pulses of U238 by -20, then adding that value (-20*2) to the sum of the U235 value (40), essentially 40-40 to zero it out.

Satdeep Singh from one noob to another, the best thing to remember about signals: use a chain signal immediately in front of an intersection (whether that is a fork or a crossing rail), and then use a normal signal far enough past the intersection for your train to fit, and not block the intersection. If you have a 2nd intersection before there is enough room to “park”, that should be a chain signal as well. Another good place to use a normal signal is right before and right after your stations (as long as the one before the station leaves enough parking distance). Hope this helps, it’s been working for me!

Interesting fact: Kovarex is nickname of the main programer of Factorio - Michal Kovařík. However in real world there is no process how to convert U238 to U235. IRL U238 can be bombarded by neutrons which converts it to Plutonium 239 and this can be used in nukes and nuclear plants too.

It's probably a stop-gap process so that they don't have to (at least yet) try and implement a huge number of side products to make an insanely complicated chain for producing nuclear fuel.

@@LanceThumping Kovarex himself told in some interview that the joy of playing had precedence before realism. And this is. However they are mods which introduce neutron bombardment of U238 for gaining plutonium or creating plutonium as a nuclear fission product and some really hard mods needs you to gain fluoric acid for making uranium hexafluorid which is a toxic gas in temperature over 60°C and is the real matter for centrifugation. And then reducing back from fluorid to Uranium.

It could be i little better when you use one more inserter directly access to centrifuge and output directly to chest everytime when counter is 40 or more. Also it needs to connect output to belt and output only if counter is less then 40 and count this output not input :-) and change stack size to 10.

Blueprint plsssss! :( and could someone pls explain the logic of reseting the combinators?
@carlossouzaamorim
@carlossouzaamorim 4 жыл бұрын
The values on the network are added to inform a single value for a symbol. The -40 informed by the aritmetic combinator for U235 value is added to the current 41 of the decider so the current value for U235 resets to 1.

Such a missed opportunity that the game developers didn't add a simple checkbox to stop the inserters from pulling more materials into a centrifuge than that which it immediately needs to do the Kovarex process.
