While the northern belt was loading science packs on the outer lane I noticed that it pushed items on the belt a bit behind, if there was a gap somewhere.
Upon closing the last gap, the items stopped flowing complete.

No Mods.
Attached is the savegame.

I can comfirm this behaivoir. That items suddenly stop if the carousel is full.

Is this solved with the belt optimalisations voor version 0.16 ?

it has done this ever since i started playing the game back in 12, i dont thing this is a bug, when the belt is full, what does it matter if it stops moving?

I understand that keeping them moving would be bad for performance.
But shouldn't that be not so much of an issue, once items on a belt are optimized in 0.16?

In that case, I'd expect the belt to move, since there's nothing that SHOULD be blocking it. The item on the input-belt would stay on that belt because it can't enter and the loop still moves.

If you want to keep sushi belts moving split the belt in two at one point.
