I like this idea. It's also mentioned in a different thread [1].

Of course, it needs to be balanced so that even with max productivity modules, it doesn't allow you to get more resources out of something than you put into it

Look at the requirements. Automobilism now requires the Engine technology as well as Logistics 2.

Basic oil processing claims it's Made In steam engine. It's actually made in a refinery.

Stats for several productivity modules have something point nine percent. E.g. Productivity Module 2 has Energy Consumption: 69.9% and Productivity: +5.9%. I assume these are intended to be 70% and 6% respectively. This affects Productivity Module 1, 2, and 3. Also affects Speed Module 3. Here is a ...

The pump will only empty a few sections near it. The rest of the pipe shows 0.0 but is not empty. The other end of the pipe makes this clear:

Liquid input capacity for plants is currently very large. I think it should be reduced to 2x the cost requirement of the recipe. So for example, a chemical plant making Sulfur (recipe uses 3x water, 3x petroleum gas) should have input capacity of 6x water, 6x gas. Currently the capacity is 100x wate...

I have a long pipe. There is lubricant in it. I have a pump at the far end, and no sources connected to the pipe. Hovering shows 0.0 lubricant exists in the pipe. However, lubricant still shows in the glass windows, and water cannot go into the pipe. I think this is because the game is internally ke...

This is my first time fooling around with construction bots. Sometimes the game crashes, other times it allocates lots of memory as fast as it can (and I kill it). I'm running the 64-bit Linux version of the game, in case that's relevant. Save file available here . You should see the crash after app...
