[2.0.76] Factoriopedia entry for thruster is incorrect

[macdjord]

The Factoriopedia entry for the thruster has a nice little interactive graph showing the thruster's thrust output, fuel consumption, and resulting efficiency at various fill levels. According to this graph, the fuel consumption goes from 10% at <= 10% fill to 200% at >= 90% fill. The listed fuel consumption for a normal-quality thruster is 120 units/s each of fuel and oxidizer. Therefore, a nearly empty thruster should consume 12 u/s and a fully fueled one should consume 240 u/s, right?

Nope. It actually consumes between 6 and 120 u/s. So either the graph is lying or the consumption stat is lying. (I'd go with fixing the graph. Why should it go to 200%? 200% of what?)

Thanks for the report however the graph is correct: the thruster consumes both input fluids and their fuel values are combined.

That is a really confusing way of expressing that information.
