[1.16.5] Distributor and Breaker Module Question #157

MC 1.16.5 FML 36.2.20 Modular Routers 7.5.3-86

DISTRIBUTOR: does a SINGLE Distributor Module have the ability to target an inventory more than once? In other words... could it distribute to inventory A multiple times and inventory B once... or something like that? Did not find this module on your Wiki.

BREAKER: when the Router inventory is full the Breaker continues to break. Is there something I'm missing or is this normal? I've been using a comparator to stop the Router for now.

Thank you for creating and updating your mod. Super! Very useful... making the nearly impossible, possible.

Hi, glad you're enjoying the mod. To answer:

1) No, a distributor can't target the same inventory twice, sorry. I guess you're trying to weight the distribution to favour one inventory in a ratio? That would need a series of senders. 2) Yes, the Breaker is intended to carry on breaking if the buffer is full. The buffer is really just a buffer, the intention is to keep it clear by sending items out as they're broken. But a comparator to pause the router is a valid approach too.
