I agree. But, why worker_robots_storage_bonus can be updated up to 65535.0?
I think, increasing the number of robots drastically decreases UPS/FPS performance compared to inserters.

Worker robots don't store a cargo size (only held item count), and perhaps the expectation is there will be fewer active bots, so the benefit of reducing stored size is less.


Its the property name in LuaForce class by the way (Factorio API docs).
It's talking about handling massive items and ...

Can the property be changed? so it can store a larger value.

I'm struggling to flush the output out of the furnace/assembling machine using the inserter, due to its high productivity (mods' effect).
Imagine the property of worker robots storage bonus is not limited, but why not with the inserter ...

I don't think so, the field in the LuaForce class has uint data type.
It holds 32-bit unsigned integer. Possible values are 0 to 4,294,967,295.

So, it should be restricted in the code by conditional flow.

In this current version, inserter's capacity bonus is limited to 254.

So, please don't restrict its value.
