Help with Smart Hoppers?
Hi,

Has anyone actually got a Smart Hopper to work? If so I'd love it if you shared the secret with me? Do I need an I/O port or something?

Also do I need Industrial Rollers as well to do this or will PRF allow this by itself?

I want to gather items from around the map, put them on a conveyer belt and send them various places depending on what they are. I've managed to get a basic producer/consumer belt working, but I can't seem to get my head around how to use the Smart Hopper?

Any information or help on this is greatly appreciated.

All the Best
Dave

I've managed to get it working with a lot of fiddling around and trail and error - thank God for God mode!

You need to couple a Pusher to a Smart Hopper and ensure that the filter settings match. The Hopper pull in items from the surrounding tiles OR from a Stockpile within the area, but if you are connecting it to a conveyer belt then the hopper will grab the items from the conveyer before they have had a chance to move very far thus causing a endless loop. The secret is to switch off "Pickup from ground", which will only pull from the stockpile.
