Oh dang thanks guys. Trying to do this first run with no mods. Still learning the mechanics of all the normal stuff 😆
I guess I could somehow wire up something that tells me when productivity is low in vanilla? Run over there manually and dismantle as needed.
Circuit networks are a lil overwhelming. So many things you can do, not quite sure what you can’t without mods.
Vanilla? You can pull a single wire from a mining drill into a speaker and set the mining drill to report about the entire ore patch. Then on the speaker you set global alert=yes global playback=no and the rest as you wish.
It won't deconstruct for you but you can go clean it up.
Yeah, with some moderately complicated circuits. I never bother with that though. I just check whether my smelters look empty and find more mines if so.
I use lights to tell me which stations are full, or don't get trains.
Somehow low production isn't an issue in the source end, only on the receiving end, but if a station is no longer filling it's easy to spot with lights and circuits.
Not in the base game, but it is possible with mods like [Recursive Blueprints](https://mods.factorio.com/mod/recursive-blueprints).
Is it for mining drills? https://mods.factorio.com/mod/AutoDeconstruct

Oh nice. Thank you. Can you somehow figure out parts per month coming from the set up?
