Proof of concept for conveyor belts

[WildDogsGaming]

In this video, I show yet another way to setup your equipment and conveyor belts using the least amount of space as possible. I know I am biased, but I think that manufacturer setup is the best I have seen out there yet. It is very simple, quick, and as the video shows, the vertical conveyor elevator is very forgiving when you use this method.

Edit: Take 2. https://youtu.be/W5S3N34dEMQ

In the short time since recording this video, I have learned that there is a plus button on the smelter, and somehow it had gotten minimized, which is why I couldn't choose a production. Everything is now working fine!

Edit: I have no idea why you would ever want the production menu minimized to show no items. It seems like one of those pointless things they did just because.

Not sure what this is about, but I guess someone should let you know that the video is set to private...

Thank you! I had to take it down due to audio issues. It will be back up in about 5 minutes, I will update the link.

OK, new video has been uploaded. It turns out, my microphone I have had for 2 years suddenly doesn't like to be plugged into the USB hub. Plugging it directly in removed a majority of the static that was on the original video.

Also note, in the video, I lose power. After investigating the cause, it looks like they have changed the math for residue oil to fuel ratio, which caused 4 of my power plants to go down. Back up with 1,000 biofuel backup power now, hopefully I get this resolved soon. But everyone should be aware of the change.

Minimizing build recipe lists is useful down the line where you have 40+ recipies for one structure like the assembler for example.

Sadly its currently a blanket system, hopefully it gets changed

They simply flipped how much heavy oil plastic and rubber produce.

Before: runber - 10m3/min per refinery, and plastic - 20m3/min per refinery

Now: its 20m3/min for rubber and 10 for plastic.

Also petroleum coke was doubled from 20/60 to 40/120

Also I recommend you join the official discord. They regularlly post patch notes there, and is an active community.
