ok i think i'm starting to understand infinifactory, or at least finding some tricks that help me. unlocking blockers helped a lot

once you have blockers you can make AND gates, which are very useful

yup, and pushers can make OR gates. just need a NOT and i'm cooking with gas

ofc blockers are also the infinifactory equivalent of spacechem's sync node, which were very necessary. so that helps a lot too

why would you need to build an OR gate instead of just connecting two input wires to an output wire?

oh you mean like wire-based AND gates, i was just thinking of it in terms of allowing a block through based on input blocks
