#I missed a few Space Age features in my
native osprey
Yup! I actually just released a patch that added some new Space Age features to K2.
v1.1.0 adds belt stacking to the "Electric mining drill MK3" and gives it 50% resource drain, like the "Big mining drill"
"Electric mining drill MK2" has 75% resource drain but no stacking
Also, the mod requires a mod made by another developer which adds normal stack inserters after yellow tech cards, and has you slowly get more stacking tiers throughout progression, so you get another tier when you add purple tech cards, and the final tier of stacking when you get advanced tech cards
As a bonus, Superior inserters don't have the "must have a full hand to drop items" limitation of vanilla stack inserters
So if you give them a mixed belt or chest they'll actually cope with it just fine, same as bulk inserters.

Thank you so much!!!

You sure about not requiring full hand to drop items? Wouldn't that lower the belt throughput with partially stacked items
native osprey
in my experience it doesn't?
it generally drops full stacks
i think it only drops incomplete stacks when the inventory or belt it's taking from doesn't have enough items

But when using enough superior inserters on a building that the building can't keep up, which is how those inserters are used a lot of the time, it would start to drop incomplete stacks

This is with full hand, no more incomplete stacks
Also it might be a good idea to apply +4 stack size to the superior inserters, otherwise they only have 12 stack size while stack inserters have 16, kinda weird

Hmm. Fair enough - I'll probably just separate it into a superior stack inserter
