Automation Systems: Difference between revisions

Line 30:
Steve's Factory Manager is a high-tier, versatile automation helper. It excels in last-mile item and fluid routing and can eliminate almost all cable clutter. Setup and control is done through a drag and drop GUI interface.
 
There are two main blocks, the Machine Inventory Manager and the Inventory Cable. Only blocks directly adjacent to either the manager block or a cable block are able to be controlled by SFM. Allows for complex item and fluid routing in a compact space. Does not require power, and most operations occur around a trigger, either time-based (a timer) or event based (on redstone signal). Can move an infinite amount of items and fluids per trigger, provided that the storage medium it is interfacing with does not limit it, ex: Storage Drawers prevent removal of more than 1 stack per operation. Operations do not take additional time based on distance. SFM's internal timer trigger has a minimum tick time of 1 second and any work-arounds are relatively unreliable. SFM's price when it becomes available is relatively expensive compared to other automation systems, but its price is justified by its features.
