Buffered Transport Pipe

Open Nightreaver opened this issue 12 years ago • 4 comments

I have the idea of a kind of "buffered transport pipe". I've got a loop where items traveling through until there is a free space in one of the boxes, this makes them traveling round and round for minutes.

The idea is, to add a pipe that collects 6 - 10 items, and send one out every x seconds. maybe every 30 or 60, 120 360 (maybe configurable) and so on and maybe a random one from this small inventory if you switch modes?! if its full (no more slots left) it kicks out one from inventory and take up the new one (then the timer will be reset)

IMPORTANT: It would be really nice to see it use a FIFO setup. This would allow packets whose ordering is important to maintain ordering.

All of the above is possible, and I really like the idea. I'll probably make it in the next week.
