Sometimes ore falls through the belts

[hazy bramble]

Found this when dropping ore down from a hole in the roof

I think ita because the ore ia moving more than the belts thickness in a single physics step, an issue with all games iirc

yeah the ore is going down too fast use some chutes that helped me

I believe this is a known issue and not necessarily different from other bug reports about high speed velocity items phasing through belts and chutes, but I could be wrong. Chutes got fixed I believe a while ago, I believe this is on Gvarado's radar, but good to keep him updated with the status of it 🙂

[torpid jacinth]

just zigzag a few belts down, you'll be fine! XD

[sleek summit]

I do wonder if you put a 90 degree chute on the bottom, not even a whole chute, if they would still fall through or not

yeah or that

[sleek summit]

the exit chute that I cant remember the name of*

or chutes

[hazy bramble]

I'll try that and see what happens

Use chutes to build something like this. The yellow part decelerate the ore and the bottom green part prevent the chute spill out of the conveyer belt.

It's not a problem of items spilling, it's a problem of items going through the belt and ending up underneath them. A chute does take away that problem but that wasn't my point

They are aware of the issue, but this will likely require
a physics engine replacement, which while potentially
planned has no timeline asigned for it what so ever.
