Pneumatic Transport

by Saienai

Removes all belts and adds pneumatic in/out stations (with built in inserters) that convert any/all items into fluid-like states for transport through pipes. Alternative lore: LIQUIFY EVERYTHING!!!!

i The "item solidifer" has a large internal buffer

1 year, 5 months ago

The "item solidifer" has a large internal buffer: 150 fluid(15 item ?) + stack of items at the output (50/100 items).
This leads to the fact that the pipes do not work well with items that have a low production rate: engine, BC, etc.
Perhaps it is better to reduce the internal buffer.

Unfortunately this is a factorio limitation - if the recipe has fluids as inputs (and only fluids) it will keep producing until it is absolutely maxed out (aka - fluids have nowhere to go and/or items reach stack size limit). The only option currently available is to decrease the stack size of items (thus decreasing the buffer), but that would be horrible from a player-inventory perspective.
