Smart Splitter: Difference between revisions

The Smart Splitter is an upgraded version of the Splitter capable of filtering its input and handling overflow.

Obtaining

Unlocking

Smart Splitter is unlocked via the Caterium Research chain in the

MAM using:

Construction

Recipe	Ingredients												Building	Products		Prerequisites
Smart Splitter	2 × Reinforced Iron Plate						2 × Rotor						Build Gun	1 × Smart Splitter		Caterium Research - Smart Splitter
Smart Splitter	1 × AI Limiter												Build Gun	1 × Smart Splitter		Caterium Research - Smart Splitter

Usage

Unlike a standard Splitter, the Smart Splitter can be interacted with to access its UI. In this menu, a single rule (or 'filter') can be set to each output, labeled Left Output, Center Output and Right Output.

The capabilities of the Smart Splitter can be useful on several ocassions, such as for sorting mixed conveyors or handling overflow by feeding excess parts into the AWESOME Sink.

Filters

Any: The output will behave just like a normal Splitter. Parts will be evenly distributed across this output and any other available outputs.
*: Same as Any, but unavailable in the selection menu. Appears by default in the Center Output.
None: The output is unused. Appears by default in the Right and Left Output.
Any undefined: Same as Any, but parts that have their own designated filter won't pass through this output.
Overflow: This output will only be used if there are no other outputs to use. If multiple outputs have this filter, overflowing parts will be distributed evenly among them.
Item: Only the selected item will pass through the output. Its recipe has to be unlocked first in order for it to appear in the list, making some items like S.A.M. Ore or Nuclear Waste not appear in the list whatsoever.

Tips

The functionality of Programmable Splitters can be replicated by chaining Smart Splitters
Before the Smart Splitter is available, specific Splitter-Merger arrays can be used to handle overflow

History

Patch 0.3.4.6: Added “Overflow” rule
Patch 0.3.4.2: Now should no longer back up on duplicate rule definitions
Patch 0.2.1.11: Added “Any Undefined” rule, which only sends items through that are not defined to go to any other output
Patch 0.2.1.9: Now should use more than one output when there are multiple outputs with a matching rule
Patch 0.1.5: Changed crafting cost from 3 Reinforced Iron Plate to 2
