how to use a pure nodes full potential

[Eren]

so you can get 1200 per minute from a pure node. but mk5 belts can only transport 720 or smth like that. is there a efficient way to do it?

im thinking if i put a splitter right in front of the node and split it to two lines it might be useful but at the end only 700ish per minute will go there first then split to 600-600.

There's no way to get the full amount. You're limited by belt speed. Even a splitter won't work since it can't be placed directly on the machine.

Hopefully they will have some MK6 belts that will allow 1200 ppm. The reason we dont right now is because currantly the game kinda looses track of parts on the conveyers when you try to pump to many on them. There is a mod out that you can get like 1500 ppm belts I think but they are glitchy as all get out.

I kinda wish the mk 3 miners had 2 outputs or something, would fix the issue without having to combat figuring out how to make belts go as high as they would need to

they devs have said they have a solution to this issue but have not yet announced or even hinted to what this solution will look like.

Snutt and/or Jace did say that one possible option would be to rebalance the amounts of materials so that, let's say, 800 ppm would be the equivilent of 1200 ppm now.

They could just multiply everything by 0.1, it's an easy calculation to make for every number in the game currently. The only downside that I can see is that it would make things a bit less satisfying from aesthetics perspective. A getting 6 ore per minute from a miner would look a bit underwhelming. Cutting everything by half though would be a pretty good compromise.

It would be nice if they implemented the thing for belts like another game does. Higher speed belts are automatically 'boxed' and 'unboxed' as needed. I think it is Captain of Industry game that does this.

MinerMk5 mod on ficsit.app has multiple outputs for those still on U7 release.

We might be getting another tier of bents come the full release. For now yeah, the max items you can have going through a belt is with mk 5 at 720.
So the best way to get the most out of a pure node is to use a mk3 miner overclocked to 150% to get the 720/m throughput max we can have right now.

mk5 is 780
