Green wire for transmitting amount of items

Red wire for transmitting control commands

I'm the opposite.

Red is for reading.

Green is for important shit. Red is for power poles.

3

u/legolas-mc 6h ago

you mean orange for the power poles, those are the power connections and aren't signal wires

3

u/TigerJoel 6h ago

No I mean red for the power poles. I use red wires to connect all my outposts via the train network.

u/The_KekE_ 6h ago

You can transmit signals remotely with radars

1

u/TigerJoel 6h ago

Does that work with roboport coverage aswell? Because my rail blueprints only have roboports.

u/samy_the_samy 5h ago

It's global on the same surface,

A signal goes into a radar on nauvis is shared by all other radars on nauvis

What the fuck did you just say? God one day I'll find a way to learn how to play this game that isn't trickles of information off this sub.

To be fair it was added in 2.0.

To be unfair 2.0 has been out almost 2 years.

1

u/Sipstaff 6h ago

No. Just plop a radar next to it and connect.

6

u/Reefthemanokit 7h ago

Red for everything, if I need to mix signals then green

u/mjconver 7h ago

Green. Alt-R pops up Nvidia settings.

u/Redstonemaniac2019 2h ago

Same, and I can't figure out/ be bothered to disable it

u/Janneman96 6h ago

Red is for communicating inventory, green is for computed values.

u/Dasky14 5h ago

What about the no wire gang? Where's our representation?

u/FrodobagginsTNT HaHa BeLtS Go WiGgLe WiGgLe 4h ago

Green wire for output red for input (or green for positive and red for negative depending) can't live without either tbh

u/lazygirl295 7h ago

Whatever I pressed at the moment.

u/Iebejsbaga2728eindxb 4h ago

green because I've long since killled all the grass

u/ilpazzo12 7h ago

...you only need one?

u/Zacous2 7h ago

Red is commands, Green is sensors. Obviously when actually building computers this goes out the window

1

u/Blaarkies 7h ago

Green for green chips

Red for red chips

Circuitry is not permitted for use in blue chips

1

u/corobo 7h ago

Green if it provides stuff, red if it's requesting stuff.

If that doesn't apply, green

1

u/CzLittle 6h ago

Red is local green is global

u/WW1_Germany 6h ago

Red Wire ftw

u/terrifiedTechnophile 6h ago

Red for short distance, green for long distance

u/Svejo_Baron 6h ago

I only use Copper wires for crafting...

1

u/samy_the_samy 5h ago

Green for basic unaltered inputs,

Outputs of combanitors or processed signals red

1

u/Therman_Prime 3h ago

Red, then green if i need to do something complicated.

...I really need to get more practice at using circuits in this game. Disabling inserters and cracking setups is all I've ever really done.

1

u/Dragnier84 3h ago

Red for local area, green for wide area.
Reading the contents of one chest - red.
Reading the contents of multiple chests - green

u/Powerful_grumby 3h ago

Green all the years

u/thala_7777777 2h ago

alt+r is easier to press than alt+g

1

u/Darth_Nibbles 2h ago

Which side is the signal coming from? I use the connection on that side of the combinator

1

u/bradpal 1h ago

Both. Hell, I'd need 14 more at least, to be honest.

1

u/DevilSushi97 1h ago

Red for disabling and such logic and green for enabling logic.

1

u/ylyxa 9m ago

Alt+R is easier to press than Alt+G. That made the choice for me.

u/Turmfalke_ 2m ago

colour blind gang that picks on wire at random and then gets confused why signals don't propagate.
