I have all the upgrades unlocked. The game tells me that a single fluid pipe can support 4 painters. Yet the front (left) 8 painters do not fully fill out the belts, as they do not receive enough fluids to work at full speed. Despite the fluid input being maximized. (this happens too with unmixed paint) Does anyone have any idea why this happens and/or how to fix it?
vagrant whale
are you SURE the fluid input is maximized?
lean yacht
are you SURE the fluid input is maximized?
yes, here is a quick example where i hooked up some red paint to some random shape. The big fluid pipe is backed up, but the front painters are not working at max speed
vagrant whale
are you on 0.0.7?
lean yacht
yes
vagrant whale
can you try replacing the space pipe
lean yacht
replaced the entire space pipe, still see the same pattern
vagrant whale
can you send the bp
lean yacht
certainly!
lean yacht
hmmm, i see...
But the game tells me that each launcher can only support 4 buildings. Are you telling me that the pipes themselves can support more than 1 launcher?
vagrant whale
1 pipe = 4 launchers
however im still not sure where the bottleneck was in your bp
removing the launchers did solve it though
lean yacht
yeah, i figured in theory it should work like how i set it up... Strange
lean yacht
removing the launchers did solve it though
indeed it does. Thank you very much! :D
vagrant whale
ok i have identified A difference
the middle 2 lanes are funded purely by launchers
while the outer 2 lanes have 1 set piped to directly
and theyre connected to each other
lean yacht
and theyre connected to each other
wait, how so?
ohhh, through the connected painters?
vagrant whale
yeah
lean yacht
ahhhhh
vagrant whale
painter inputs are outputs too
lean yacht
so it has to do with the launchers.
though there are still 2 launchers for 8 painters
I suppose the fluid buildup in the launchers themselves slow it down?
vagrant whale
it might be a bug to be honest
lean yacht
worth making a report?
vagrant whale
ima ask around first
lean yacht
thank you so much. Youve been very helpfull!

these launchers are 5 apart, not 4
so both middle belts are only getting paint from the orange route

Jeez, you have some good eyes...
vagrant whale
i didnt spot it
