But you'd have to include the barrels on the train and at the outpost into that. Otherwise the barrels get loaded on the train and your barrel factory starts producing barrels No, it works by fuzzy logic. Over time it will gradually approach the optimum number of barrels, although that will probabl...

Using logic gates, you can build a Linear Feedback Shift Register, which can be used to make a pseudo-random number generator.

Turbine Generator - Use petroleum gas as fuel, but also require lubricant and water(cold water, as a coolant) Generate much higher levels of power, but take time to reach full speed/production. The water must be cold, and is heated by the turbine. Has an input and output for water, similar to the bo...

I don't normally ship oil, damnit, now I have to build a station just to solve this non-problem. Basically the theory is to restrict the flow of new barrels into the system and keep the number below the maximum possible, thus allowing room for loading and unloading of barrels. At the loading station...
