Unloader
A distribution block that extracts a chosen item from a linked storage block.
It is useful for turning stored material into a steady line, but the selected item and downstream demand must be planned together.
When it fits: Add one where storage feeds a production or defense line and a belt alone cannot take inventory from the container.
The tradeoff: One source recipe run makes 1 and lists 30 Silicon, 25 Titanium at Nova / Pulsar / Quasar / Vela / Poly / Mega / Quad / Oct / Retusa / Oxynoe / Cyerce / Aegires / Navanax / Alpha / Beta / Gamma; 1 recipe variant(s) for this output are grouped together. Verify access where the pack is incomplete. The unloader does not create supply; it can empty a buffer faster than its producer replenishes it.
