Nexus Advanced FALCORS
Welcome to Nexus’s Advanced FALCOR’s mod, which now includes more than just FALCORS.
The premise of this mod was to originally just add a FALCOR with a filter slapped to but it is slowly evolving to include its own logistics/power transportation system.
Currently there are three added blocks, a Filtered FALCOR, a Bypass Conveyor, and a Mini Conduit.
Advanced Logistic FALCOR:
The Advanced Logistic FALCOR is primarily designed to help in transporting items between low to medium throughput systems. It uses the same filtering mechanism as the Advanced Conveyor Filter, so it is a specific item filter. As per its design, it is meant to create closed FALCOR ‘Networks’. For instance, you can use these FALCOR’s to handle both your Freezon supply for your Freezon Injectors/Geothermals. Whilst also handling the fuel requirements of your turbines, and they wont accidently go after each-others resources, like standard Logistic FALCOR’s!
Use Left-Ctrl E to set the filter and Left-Ctrl T to invert it.
Bypass Conveyor:
The Bypass Conveyor is kinda of a niche block, Its meant to help people manage overflow from there lines. For instance, lets say your trying to clear a(n) Coal Vein, you want to make sure it keeps topping off your Coal Enricher’s first..but if it backs up it will send the excess to be converted to Construction Paste. That basicly what this block helps to accomplish. The green arrows dictates the primary flow direction, you can swap around the primary flow and input direction by using Left-Ctrl E.
I haven’t decided on this blocks cost or placement in the research tree yet, so that is subject to change. As is the name.
H.E.P.T. Device (High Energy Power Transfer):
The H.E.P.T. Device is a thing of beauty, It is designed to work exactly like a standard conduit only it transfers at 1,000pps Instead of 10k PPS. It does cause damage to players but at a smaller amount than a standard Conduit. It is also capable of firing through the same blocks a LPT can. It should also be duly noted that this block is unique to its larger brother the standard Conduit in that you can attach this to more than just MK4 Batteries! In fact you can attach it to any device that requires power, makes it very useful in powering high energy requirement machines just prior to building the C5 and gaining access to harder materials.
Works upto 128m
Requires one H.E.P.T. Device at each end inorder to function.
- Currently the Mini Conduits place in a weird way. Think LPT, if you place an LPT on the ground it will fire horizontally, if you place it on a wall it will fire vertically. Same thing for the mini conduit…it can be a little weird and I intend to change it. Once I figure out how.
- The H.E.P.T. Device does not connect directly to Geothermal Generators, this is due to the H.E.P.T. Device interacting with devices that use PowerConsumerInterface. Strangely Geothermal Generators are not part of this interface. Place a PSB inbetween the Geothermal Generator and the H.E.P.T. Device.
