Gas flow and sorters is acting odd

Mike Mortensen shared this bug 5 years ago
Outdated

I'm not sure if they is explained in https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers/general/topic/oxygen-sorters-and-cryo-tubes

or

https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers/general/topic/stock-large-sorter-does-not-pass-hydrogen-100-recreatable.


However this is regarding the large grid sorter.

I've included a test world that holds 4 configurations all demonstrating and explaining the issue.


Basically sorters behave weird when it comes to gas flows.

Having both sorters point towards the tank will make it stop flowing gas from the left generator.


Having both sorters point towards the generators will make the gas flow stop.


Having one sorter point towards the generator and another sorter points towards the tank will yield two different result depending on the direction.


As demonstrated in the provided test world one setup has a sorter point towards the left generator and another point towards the tank, following the same direction from the left sorter.

This will result in both generators filling the tank.

If you reverse this setup (Sorters pointing towards the right generator) only the left generator will fill the tank.
