24 > 12 Stacker (bent) with overflow

[real crow]

Regular stacking platform (top input on the side), but if only one input is being used, it will skip the stacker and continue on. Useful for MaMs to handle blank corners.

There's almost certainly a lot of optimisation to be done here - I'm sure it would be possible to get this down to a 1x2 at least - but it sure is technically functional

this isnt strictly related, but does anyone know if this sort of thing can be done for a painter as well?

like if the painter has no colour, you can make the shapes skip it

i cant find any sort of pipe reader so idk how to test for no paint

I believe it's called "bypass" not "overflow"

[signal pond]

yes and it has been done on 1x1

[real crow]

dang

what do you use for the bypass detection then?

[signal pond]

belt reader not gate belt filter

[real crow]

ohhhh like a belt reader on the other end of the painter?

[signal pond]

yes
if there is no painted shapes, let unpainted shapes pass through

[real crow]

sick

[honest robin]

Ooor just the new overflow splitter no?

[signal pond]

unless your bypass path is shorter than the normal path, once overflow splitter starts bypassing, it will never stop
