Whats the deal with the scrapper?
SO i connected my scraper with an input silo and an out put silo but it only auto transfer the 1st item in the 4 item stack from the scrapper to the silo WHATS UP? is this as intended whats the point in having it connected if i have to move items manually, i figure this is a bug or over sight i bet someone else has mentioned this, will it be fixed ? :steamsalty::2016watermelon:

Greetings

On each machine NOT only the scrapper every OUTPUT slot needs its own pipe to a silo.

So if using the smallest silo which has 2 connection points that would mean you need to connect two scrapper output pipes to each silo therefore having 4 pipes from the scrapper. :lunar2019grinningpig:

YEP next ultra stupid and no work right thing in this alpha test for scraper u need 4x silos when u no need stay hours at scraper and manual put out materials.ALL pipes and silos sstem is total useless and broken miss many T pipe,cross pipe,setting type material what need rafined purified,when change material umust manual start again.
Man i see it labels the connection, this is DIRTY WTF is the point in all the connections , this is lame complexity just for the sake of complexity, not sure i supported the correct team :steamsalty::2016watermelon:

I just use 2 large silos with my scrapper as each silo has 4 connection points. One silo is for the junk and is connected to the scrapper. When the scrapper is powered the junk moves into it for scrapping. The scrapper has 4 sets of conduits leading out into the second silo, so everything gets transferred automatically from the scrapper's 4 slots. It's an untidy-looking setup but it's simple enough and works like a charm.

I'm thinking of leading a conduit into my smelter from the second silo to automatically smelt stuff too. Not sure if it's worth it though.

You need 1 conduit for ever resource output. So scrapper has 4 outputs you need 4 conduits hooked up to whatever, so if storage then the medium or large storage, or multiple small ones as they only have 2 connections. It can and will eventually make your base a big mess unless you plan out where everything is going.

you have to have a layout that can support the transferring of resources from Scrapper/Fragmenter.

Here how I set up mine and runs for hours if needed.

4 large silos feeding into scrapper. Scrapper outputs to two large silos. Which in turn output to another large silo. I could of outputted from scrapper to one large silo. Then daisey chained them from there. But I went with this as was cleaner for me.
