I have a ship that requests 300k biter eggs. On the ground are 128 silos full of biter eggs. The rockets get sent at most at 1/s, wasting time and eggs.

Video of the problem: Save (uses my private mod that optimizes some unrelated things, disregard): gdrive because I can't attach it here for some reason https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kYoAK1 ... sp=sharing

Instructions: Go to prometheum #003 ship, enable biter egg request, watch it get fullfiled slowly while showing plenty of eggs in silos on the ground.


I know the rockets can be sent faster, my science haulers get loaded up instantly with 96k science. This is some weird behaviour that I'm not sure what is causing. I believe it's a bug of some sort, potentially regarding request interleaving.

expected behaviour:

Ref 124140 Delayed rocket launch for bigger amount of silos, problematic for handling biter eggs in megabase.

still a problem in 2.0.25

I'm running into similar, I want to launch 200k eggs and can't seem to get them launched this fast - is there a trick to getting them to all launch instantly?

Thanks for the report, this is a duplicate of 122321.
