Speed modules in pump jacks not showing new values

Hi,

When I place speed modules in pump jacks and beacons around the pump jacks, the output value displayed on the hover doesn't change although all the other info (like speed, pollution, etc) do change.

I can see the jacks moving faster and if I go in to them I can see they're definitely pushing out product faster but the production value remains the same.

When I look at assemblers with speed modules, they show their new speed + bonus, but the pump jacks don't. I then looked at miners (which the pump jack is a relative of) and it too doesn't display the updated production but does show that it has a speed bonus.

Am I missing something? I'd expect all systems to behave the same but it seems miners and pump jacks behave differently to assemblers.

Thanks!

The number indicated is the amount of oil generated per operation IIRC, where an operation takes one second to complete. Neither speed modification nor productivity modification adjust this number.

This technically isn't a bug, but I agree that the number is misleading since it explicitly states a rate per time, versus amount per operation. Maybe a minor issue?
