Automation ?

[Ryudo Winchester]

Hello new to all this auto stuff would like to know can you make it so
you one chest full of iron ore that it goes over into 2 or 3 smelters/furnace
and then gets moved into finished chest ?
atm it seems the crane simply take evrything and one smelter is left with out work ?

Well, you could place up to 4 cranes around a small chest, one on each side. You could also build stuff like this here:

In this case, you might be better off just making new smelters and manually just do that if you need things to be faster.

What you're thinking would be great though, if we're able to control the number of ores a furnace or smelter can receive and control what a chest is able to keep, we can probably make a faster automated system.

Other than that, it's best to treat automation as something you'd just leave alone while you do something else.

Ya that was what i was thinking dosent seem to work with out a system to tell it to move lets say 10 each atleast that way a second crane would be allowed to move stuff too

Was just hopeing there was a way but sadly seems like there isent but Thanks for the info
