Hello, we are going to focus on the general improvements of the way circuit network is used in the game. I wasn't using it often, because all the problems combined made it too big of a hassle most of the time, which was an indication of problems. So we improved each part of the process of using it a little, from UI, to feedback of what is going on, to stronger/more accessible combinator functionality. I can say that it worked, at least for me. Once these changes were available, I used the circuit network way more in my latest playthrough, and it felt good, so lets hope it won't be just me :)

    Very excited for the new decider combinator. Currently playing Space Exploration mod, and my Interplanetary Post Office rocket logic has a lot of combinators to determine whether to launch a rocket: (target launchpad clear) AND ((all requested items loaded) OR (rocket full) OR ((some items loaded) AND (more than 10 minutes since last delivery))). With this I can shove all that into one nice, visually debuggable combinator.

      Oh, didn’t see that! That’s amazing. It is going to be more understandable than the heavily shortened text plates I’m currently having to use to remember anything at all about my setup. :)

    This could be good. I’m not following it completely, I think I’ll need to see it in practice, but I avoid combinators right now bc they’re kinda weird to me.

    This will make running my supply train so much easier. Right now, I need one decider combinator per item I want to test. With this it’s all gonna be in one item, this is so convenient!
