Logistic Network: Wireless Network
The Wireless Transmitter is a node that allows a network to be extended wirelessly, by connecting to a Wireless Receiver. It isn't necessary to use a Wireless Access Pad, as that synchronizes to an Access Point instead.
Each network can only have 1 and only 1 Wireless Transmitter. In order to function, the Wireless Transmitter must be placed directly on top of the Network Controller. Once placed, it automatically starts to transmit the network, over an unlimited distance.
If a Wireless Transmitter is dug or destroyed, or if the Network Controller below it is dug or destroyed, all connected Wireless Receivers will be disconnected, and must manually be re-connected once the Transmitter is placed.
A wireless Transmitter has a limit of how many Receivers can be connected to it. This setting is configured by server, see the Server Settings guide page at the bottom of the list on the left.
max_receivers_per_transmitter type Int: Sets how many Wireless Receivers can be connected to a single Wireless Transmitter (and since each network can only have 1 Transmitter, it also means how many Receivers a single Network can have). Default 100, min 1, max 1000
The Wireless Receiver allows a network to be extended wirelessly, by connecting to a Wireless Transmitter.
To use a Receiver, first place a Transmitter in a valid position (see its page for info) to allow the network to be wirelessly transmitted.
Then place a Receiver in a valid position, such that it doesn't connect to an existing network. Then right click it and from the dropdown select the corresponding Network to connect to by name. Note that Networks can be renamed from their Network Controllers. Then press Connect - if successful, you will get a green "Connected" message.
You can then connect Optic Cables to the Receiver and they will carry the network the Receiver was connected to.
If you place a Receiver, and you cannot see your Network name (can happen after server/game restarts), first make sure the Network has a Wireless Transmitter attached to its controller. Then go and right click the Network Controller, which will make sure the network is active.
