have a possible mining/reaction pos setup that im not sure will work, was wondering if someone could let me know if ive got this right (caldari large tower)
................CA\
MH-SR-CA-SI-CR-CA-SI
MH/...........CA/
MH-moon harvester, SR - simple reactor, CA - coupling array, SI - Silo, CR - complex reactor.
theory behind it is to fill the 2 extra CA's feeding the CR with a (the same) simple reaction material, instead of a silo, for fitting concerns, and to use 2 of them so you only have to refill every 30h instead of 15h. this would save me 190 cpu (and 20k grid) that i need for other stuff.
to be clear, the CR is a double-material reaction, and both CA's will be feeding the same mat into it, the 2nd mat needed will be from the SR.
so, will this work? or do you *have* to have the silo if you want to go beyond 15h limit from a CA?

I don't think the double Coupling Array and Silo part will work. As I recall, there just isn't enough space to link all of them together.
Without the second Coupling Array input, it looks fine.

Coupling arrays are just the same as small silos. Personally I think setups that rely upon them or single silo outputs from complex reactions are mad and way too much work. There's nothing that stops you doing CA-CA-CR instead of SI-CR. The only real limit on setups is the CPU limit.

yeah, cpu is what im fighting here and double ca is easier than a silo.
so do you link one ca to the next ca to the cr, or link both ca's directly to the cr?
edit - and the single silo output will take longer to fill than the double ca's to empty, so thats not a limiting factor either.

Nope.
MH-SR-CA-SI-CR-CA-SI
MH/.....CA-CA/
That would work.
EDIT: Spacing is hard.

You can't link multiple CA's of the same type directly to a CR, you have to link one CA to the next CA then that to the CR.
Personally I work with setups that only require me to intervene once a week or less often, I had 32 going at one stage and didn't login every day ;)

Nope.
MH-SR-CA-SI-CR-CA-SI
MH/.....CA-CA/
That would work.

qft
2x MH - SR - SI - CR - 2x SI
.......................SI/
7500/7500 (with both silos online at the end)
that's how we do it. couplings are nothing more than tiny silos anyway
