I unload various goods into the same active provides chests. The unloading of the train stopps when a certain amount in present in the logistic network + the stuff that is in the provider chests. Hence, I need to the trains to unload quickly, because the next trains needs to come with goods that mi...

You shouldn't be using activie providers at the train station. You are simply wasting bots time. They have to move it from the active provider into storage. Then later when it is actually needed they have to move it again. In addition you are building up an unnecessary buffer. It doesn't matter if ...

I think you are mistaken (or my 0.15 is broken).

All bots fly to one chest, after xx arrivals the chest is full and all bots fly to the next chest. And it is by no means the closest one.

Thanks. As far as I can see, this calculation makes perfectly sense. Let me add two ideas to this thread: 1. The exact ratio is only important if you energy consumption is very constant and very closely matched to your energy production. If your consumption fluctuates much (thanks to laser activitie...
