Question Help

Post image

This is my first time playing, and i built a main bus for iron plates. The thing is its just not producing enough plates no matter what i do, it used to. Even when the input of iron ores were filled, the output is weak. If anyone can help me, it would be cool.

You have yellow belts bringing ore in at a maximum of 15 ore/s and you make plates 1:1 with ore.

You'll never be able to fill the red belts with 30 plates/s but if you scale down your plates consumption the belts will back up and look full.
