My refineries all lead to another LCC - through another sorter set to drain all ingots from the refineries. If you add a bunch of rock to your input and your refineries take a bunch of it you have a short circuit of sorts in your network somewhere. Iron is set pretty high with Rock being the highest. You have to set sorters to filter their output as well or the refineries will likely find a way to take the ore through your destination containers from your input container network or might try separating your input and output networks entirely.Īlso each ore has a priority set on them. Most of the time this is your destination containers, as all refinery connections lead there. Part of that is that refineries gobble ore through any path they have access to. But I have found it's incredibly easy to accidentally circumvent them. Originally posted by ouch67:I haven't had any issues with sorters being inconsistent. I've checked each sorter - they are all set with whitelist, they each have a unique (short) list of ores that they are supposed to allow, all of them have 'Drain All' set to Off. But when I dump iron ore into the LCC, it is fed to ALL the refineries they ALL start to refine iron ore. When I dump cobalt ore into the LCC, only the cobalt refinery starts operating (which is correct). This is to try to have the minimum power consumption at any one time - realistically, I'm unlikely to have 4 different ores in the LCC at once. If I have iron and nickel ore, then 2 refineries should be active (1 for each ore). If I'm refining iron ore, *ONLY* the refinery dedicated to that ore should be in operation. The intention is to have only as many refineries active as I have different ores in the LCC. All sorters have the 'Drain All' setting to *Off*. Each of the sorters has a whitelist of 2 or 3 ores (different ores for each of the sorters), so that each refinery is 'dedicated' to only refine those particular ores and no others. The refinery conveyor system has 4 branches (one to each of the refineries) which are immediately followed by a sorter. The LCC has 2 conveyor systems leading from it one to send ice (via a sorter) to my H2/O2 generator, and the other leads to my 4 refineries (each with 4 yield upgrades). The connector leads to a sorter which is set to drain all ores into a large cargo container (LCC). I'm just getting into the game, and I've constructed a medium sized base with a landing pad with a built-in connector.
