Expensive Jewelry Factory

[Sarsgamer]

Just did my second factory and it's much more efficient then my previous one. It's expensive jewelry only and it's not going to stock all my retails, but it's not bad with 384 production per day.

Compared to my other factory which is clothing and jewelry. It seems output stations don't function quite right when mixed inputs. In the clothing and jewelry factory the output worker is constantly moving things to the pallet shelf, even though they aren't receiving more than 6 different inputs, compared to the expensive jewelry only factory where they wait for the box to be full before moving it.

I tested slowly starting with 2 inputs and 2 outputs, then removed an output, then added 2 more inputs and then finally 4 more inputs. With just the one output station it stayed steady with 48 production per input. The factory production tab doesn't match the end of day inventory though. Per the factory tab I'm making just under 80 per day, but inventory shows 384 right before shipping it out to another warehouse. My clothing and jewelry warehouse is pretty much the opposite where end of day inventory is less than what the factory tab says.

I put the jewelry factory on the workshop... only costs a bit under 10 mil haha. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3368860994

After further playing/testing... it seems output stations are inefficient or we at least need to know how many inputs they can accept per hour.

In my first factory I was doing cheap and expensive jewelry, 2 inputs each. While I was thinking multiple products to one output was causing an issue... it wasn't that. I changed the expensive to cheap and it went from roughly 98 per day to roughly 196. Then added a second output station and it doubled. I would have expected one output station to handle 2 products every 15 minutes.

In other notes I opened up a second expensive jewelry factory cause noticed my first was overloading the single warehouse it was sending to. Between the two factories producing expensive jewelry I think I can supply the 4 warehouses that are supplying retails.

I’m just starting up a pizza factory since a lot started to be in short supply. I put out all the factory machines and parts like puzzle pieces and i hope it will adz up to something.

There’s a LOT to it it seems, but well, lets see what happens.
