Grabber priority?

[KingOfBeingCorrect]

Is there some logistics way of making grabber priority for say quality? I'd like a train to pull up to a station and unload ores but from the top down like if a legendary ore is in the chest it grabs that first then tier by tier... I'm doing a quality factory from the bottom up but the grabbers just randomize what they grab.

I sort them at the base but I'd like it not to be entirely rng or whatever when loading haha

The Asteroid Collectors (thing with arms on space platforms that "grab" asteroids as they float by) is the "grabber" in the game...

That's the space grabber! 🤣
I kinda just name things whatever I'm not gonna lie, this is very common for me
Sometimes I check in game names if I don't name the thing or if I think it'll be extra confusing to say what I call it. But yeah, the earth planet enemies? Them zerg! And big biters? Thats uktralisk I'm sure you see where this goes

The worms on volcanus clearly Alaskan bull worm

Out of curiosity, why are you (and a decent amount of other people) calling inserters "grabbers"?

When you're setting a filter on an inserter it lets you select just the quality comparison without the item type, so you can relatively easily have the main inserters putting all the common stuff in the main line while having others set to pull just the higher quality stuff into the quality lines.

I'm ngl quality is addicting and it's making a quick mess of my base 🤣 I may have over done it 2 days in though and I'm popping out rare tanks and power armor mk2s and I'm upgrading my entire nuclear and steam power plants to rare components cuz I don't know what to do with all these parts

Gotta head toward that quality 3 module tomorrow me thinks
