g UPS efficiency vs. Miniloaders?

4 years ago
(updated 3 years ago)

Hello, I know miniloaders are supposed to be more UPS efficient than some other loader mods because they actually consist of super faster inserters. However, I can't find out if deadlocks loaders are equally UPS efficient or not? Someone said deadlocks is just a reskin of vanilla loaders (which are already in the base game), but does that make them more efficient? less efficient? Neither?

Thanks for the help,

Probably a bit more efficient. Miniloaders use multiple inivisble inserter entities (4-6ish I think) per miniloader, which each have their own 'update' in the game engine, whereas each loader only has one update tick and has less runtime checks than inserters (like for if a train is present).
