Description
Sets the length of underground belts based on their belt speed.
The value that you set in the mod options is the number of tiles that you want between the entrance and exit.
Belts gain an additional two tiles of length per tier, so that routing them across a main bus is cleaner.
Examples
Table below shows underground length at a few sample distance settings for belts from 15/s-60/s speeds.
| Distance Setting | 15/s | 30/s | 45/s |
|---|---|---|---|
| <Vanilla Game> | 4 | 6 | 8 |
| 4 | 4 | 10 | 16 |
| 6 | 6 | 14 | 22 |
| 8 | 8 | 18 | 28 |
Background
I recently played Krastorio2 and loved the increased underground belt length. While playing Space Exploration, I felt that it would make sense to scale belt length based on the speed of the belt. So far I've been enjoying it!
Compatibility & Installation
Compatible with all sane mods. In most all cases, this will increase the underground length of other belts added by mods.
Can be installed partway through a game. Lowering the distance setting is likely to break some of your designs.
