Is there a way to sort things by weight logically?

[UnwieldyRex]

I'm not talking about the logic saw, as i want it to be used for my vegetables. Basically I wanna know if there is a way for my to place my harvest on a belt and sort them by either above or below 1.5 weight (since above that gives you two seeds, thus, are great for "repopulation").

Or am I still stuck hand sorting them one by one using a scale?

Technically, there is. In my head though it seems like the most straight forward solution would be somewhat complicated... though to be fair I tend to over-think things.

The first solution that popped into my head is to setup a weigh station.
You can use the logic weight reader for this.
Set up two different sets of magnets.
When the weight is >=1.5wt, a set of magnets activates when a logic value of "1" is sent from the logic weight reader and moves the resource to your +1.5wt belt/area.
When the weight is <1.5wt, a set of magnets activates when a logic value "0" is sent from the logic weight reader and moves the resource to your <1.5wt belt/area.

The issue with the above setup would be you would need to weigh each resource one item at a time... and that leads to other complications.

There might be a more simple solution for this... like something with just belts/splitters, but I can't think of one.

Best of luck!

Edit- Just realized after re-reading the question that my logic saw and seed processing setup answers your question.

Setup multiple logic saws, so that veg is cut down from 3wt-2wt-1wt.
You can link the specific outputs together on the same two belt systems, so all the veg goes through the 1wt saw. That way only the 1wt veg goes to your storage and the <1wt cut veg does to your seed processor.

I did this last week, and any of the <1wt cut veg would give at least 1 seed.
Can't verify that this still works after the recent patch... as I'm no longer interested in farming after my previous farming grind.

2nd Edit- I did this with the freshly picked "raw" veg resources not the "chopped up" diced veg.

I hand picked my raw veg into a pan. Took the pan and tossed it onto a belt that took it through my logic saw setup. The 1wt raw veg resource went into a pan and the other <1wt raw veg went into my seed processor. It took the seeds packs that came out of the seed processor to a sorting area that was close to my farming area.

Before you even get into weight sorting (or any sophisticated sorting at all) you need to figure out if you can separate each object individually on the belt, preferably also having equal intervals inbetween. Otherwise its not possible.

You can make life a tiny bit easier by not having to use manual scales. But you have to put every tomato on the belt by hand. I dont see any other way it could be done.
