Rust Industrial / Electrical - Auto On/Off e-Furnace Guide

Demonstrating an auto on/off electric furnace circuit.
Let me know if you have questions.

This video deserves wayyyy more views and likes. Been looking for far too long to figure this out

What are your filter settings? This works until either the source box is empty or the first furnace is empty and then the whole system shuts off and ore sits un-smelted

I found a bug in my system.. I had the power set to split 2 off to the conveyors.. If you do this.. you need 3 (recommend 4) split to the conveyors otherwise the output to the memory cell / AND switch .. will be always 0 on one of the conveyors and it stops the system shutting down. This is because the output will always be 0. So always set power to conveyors as 1 or 2 greater than number of conveyors.

I am now using the switch, AND with blocker to power my furnaces. It is working well.

It starts off being an amazing system, and then it randomly bricks itself and the furnaces wont turn on. The splitters and branches will report they're transfering 0 power even though the memory cell is receiving more than enough.

Do you have any idea why this happens? It's pull your hair out frustrating.

Everyone!! Set your Ore conveyor to 5 for all the ores you want smelted and the system will only shut off with very minimal left in ovens

you can cut the splitter/combiner if you just put the furnaces in a row

Nice setup, I tried this and noticed the load on the battery was 16, but it remained at 16 even when the furnaces turned off, probably a glitch

I wonder is there a way for the auto off to work with the switch as believe the branch uses the power even if the items branched are not using the power. Would guess memory to switch but I'm not that good with the uncommon types of electrical components. One for testing i guess. Epic vid tho thanks.

I fumbled a cave base when I realized the above ground terrain prevented any electrical throughput. Glad this exists so I'm not constantly running large batteries between the surface and my base.

you dont even need the splitters though

my head hurts - can you bloody just link a screenshot of the set up? hurts my head just trying to understand you and watch you go to wire to wire xd - doesnt help with your wires being such a mess lol

my furnaces shut off when the box is empty but theres still ore in the furnaces how did you fix that?
