Details

Usage

This mod is intended for players who have completed the main objectives of the game and want to optimize their endgame experience. It does not alter save games in any way, and as of the latest release available on 2021-Oct-04 does not trigger the game's abnormality checks so should not affect achievements or milestones. Its intent is to improve QOL and a good deal of effort has been taken to respect the game's built-in costs for item transportation. Logistics vessel speed is the limiting factor on item deliver (as well as warper availability) so leveling up vessel speed should provide noticeable increases in transportation time

Buffer

Requested items are loaded into a local buffer which requests 1 logistic vessel capacity worth at a time. So, even if you request 15 conveyor belts 1000 will be loaded into your local buffer. This is done to save on warpers & energy needed by vessels for transporting items. It also allows for faster loading when laying down blueprints, for example.

The buffer is persisted locally on your filesystem (Documents\Dyson Sphere Program\PersonalLogistics) so that items that are expensive to build are not lost.

To clear your local buffer of an item type, you can set that item to be neither requested nor banned. The buffer won't be cleared immediately, so if you are uninstalling the mod, make sure to look at the Buffered items window (click Buffered button in the config window) to make sure everything is returned to either your inventory or to logistics stations.

Litter

By default, littered items will be sent to the closest logistics station with capacity to hold them. This can be disabled using the SendLitterToLogisticsNetwork config property. Litter, like banned items are first sent to the local buffer where they will be automatically sent to stations (provided the item type is not currently requested).

Mecha

In some cases, warpers and energy from Icarus will be used. This mostly happens when the nearby source for an item is a station with low energy or no warpers. When this happens a UI message will be shown.
