The '''splitter''' is used to divide a single belt, combine two belts into one, or equally balance two belts together. The items are placed in 1:1 relation on the outgoing belts.

=== Splitter UI ===
After placement, clicking the splitter will open its UI.
 
[[File:Splitter_UI.png|frame|The splitter UI]]
 
==== Priority ====
For both the input and output side of the splitter it is possible to set the priority to either left or right.
 
A splitter where the input priority has been set will first try to consume the specified input side, and will only
consume the other input once there is a gap on the prioritized input belt.
 
Similarly a splitter where the output priority has been set will try to redirect all incoming items
to the specified output, and will only output on the other output once the specified output is full.
 
==== Filter ====
If a specific item is set in the splitter's filter slot, the slider for the output priority will
be used for the filter instead. All items of the set type will be redirected to that specific output
and all other items are directed to the other output.

  • 0.13.0:
    • Renamed "basic splitter" to "splitter".
  • 0.11.0:
    • Fast/express splitters are now made from their lesser variants.
  • 0.5.0:
    • Added fast and express splitters
    • New graphics.
  • 0.4.1:
    • Draw ending/starting pieces of underground belt and splitter.
  • 0.3.0:
    • Splitter now has a maximum memory of 5 items when forced to send items on one side because the other one is blocked.
