support for buffer_capacity on assemblers
Posted: Sat Feb 29, 2020 7:00 am
Hi,
i think assemblers currently ignore the buffer_capacity value from electric energy_source values.
and comparing it at runtime with entity.prototype.electric_energy_source_prototype.buffer_capacity, which remains unaffected.
It seems like the value is calculated on the fly to have a 1 tick buffer based on energy usage.
My request would be to use the specified buffer_capacity instead of the dynamically calculated value, if present.

Code: Select all
It can be seen by setting entity.energy_source =
{
type = "electric",
usage_priority = "secondary-input",
input_flow_limit = "0kW", --just an example, has no influence on buffer_capacity either
buffer_capacity = "750MJ",
}
