New RHD Design : kVZP - Keep It Simple Stupid (kiSS you all!)
Original Design : Ranzolger (aka: "The Smelter")
kiSS -> Keep It Simple Stupid
This is a rework, RIGHTification and simplification of the original LHD design.
Completely Tileable - just make sure your stacker is big enough for your crazy needs.
This is a very high density smelter
Heavily modified from the original one.
Train format for input: 2-4 or 2-8
Train format for output: 2-4 or 2-8
Changelog:
- 1.0
- Original release
- 1.0b
- Fix - station names (ores mismatch)
- Improvement - icons on blueprints
- 1.0c
- Fix - Wrong signals
- New Feature - Added 2-8 support for ores input.
- 1.0d
- 2-8 stacker was a tad bit too small, corrected.
- 1.0e
- Finally, 2-8 on for output as well !
interesting hint, i been fiddling a lot with the giant smelting array idea, and i found out that the input must be far away from output, or disconnected, with regards to train tracks, my recommendations is to keep two "almost separated" train networks, where input train tracks in between ores network and output plates network is separated. It seems to make throughput much higher.

ps: for i tried it for you, in a live game, it aint cool to convert from 2-4 to 2-8 ... shrug ---> PLAN AHEAD
ps+ : tested mixed environment, the 2-8 setup accepts very well the 2-4 trains.
