Automate continuous item requests from a production line

Use a Ticket Crate for steady orders

Instead of manually creating request tickets, place a Ticket Crate near your production line. This block dispenses Item Request Tickets continuously, one at a time, allowing you to maintain a steady flow of orders without manual intervention.

Configure the crate

Set up a Deployer or hopper system to apply a materials checklist (or pre-written request template) onto blank tickets as they exit the crate. This ensures every ticket requests the same items automatically.

Route tickets to the compiler

Use hoppers, item pipes, or a train system to transport the generated tickets back to your main base's Stock Manifest Compiler. The compiler processes them in order and stages items for return shipment.

Close the loop

Arrange a return train route that picks up fulfilled orders and delivers them back to your production base. The Ticket Crate will keep generating new requests, creating a self-sustaining supply chain that runs as long as your production line needs materials.
