ASTRONEER automation

a simple guide to astroneer automation!

the what,how and why

automation is important, it is always useful for contraptions and automated farms.
the most important (and iconic) item is the auto arm, its the main part of ANY automated system no matter what it is, even if its a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ automated chess board, anyway,to craft them you need aluminum and graphite. aluminum from laterite and graphite from a centrifuge using soil or naturally,
no worries though, i got some links for you on how to do these things

plus ammonium on this one, idk

even if you are a redstone oriented nerd or not, its easy to not know what the hell is going on in the minds of the contraption builders like kuya game, my fav youtuber on the astroneer topic. Now on to the WHY, cos its fun, kinda easy and if you finish a crazy one you can brag the hell about it.

activation signals

so, there are 7 i think triggers that send an AS, the battery,storage and power sensors and the button,area(i dont know how to call them)delay and count repeaters. the sensors detect the the things they are suposed to detect, sorry for my grammar of a 2 y/o. repeaters like the button and area ones fire anything that they are pinned to(button re) or in the area(area re) count and delay are special ones, just like the button re they activate what they are pinned to,BUT they are different
( count needs a certain amount of AS while delay needs one but it takes a while) here i have more links for you
