What does it do when it consumes stuff and how do you mean with divided?

Fun fact: this suggestion has 3 threads about it on 2 first pages of "Ideas and Suggestions".
I think we need a "Do not suggest those, bump the existing thread instead" sticky with links to the reoccurring suggestions.

The problem for me is, that they don't read that and it might be an interesting idea - that happend not too seldom...

I think a "smart splitter" would be a good idea. Configurable fraction/percentage

Admittedly I'm pretty new and haven't checked out suggestions in depth, nor available items (which is hard because you have no idea what IS available at first)

I admit, this is currently difficult. I think I can say we are working on it...

And what I mean is the way how it might be implemented eventually:

Came in expecting a poorly-worded request for a cracking facility to turn unwanted heavy/light oil into petroleum, was disappointed :(

e/ Somehow I keep forgetting how many things are locked in campaign mode, d'oh :oops:

True, Cracking...
Search the wiki for that...

THERE IS NOT AN ENTRY!

So, it's not wrong for @albarak to not know, as any other new user.
WE (community) need to update the WIKI, even if the game itself updates faster than us!!! :)

There are many things to do there. The wiki is from players for players. Get an account, look what is already existing, make a plan and just begin writing. Me and the others don't bite. :)
