Inconsistent flow of resources between Miner Mk.8 and the Mk. 9 belt #27

As you know, a Mk. 9 belt is rated for 9000 resources per minute. However when running coal to a Mk8 Foundry, the belt can't keep up to 9000 with the miner running at 100%. It's more like 7420, but when I kept testing this, these numbers would change. At one reading I could barely get 270. I tried overclocking the miner which was already putting out 3000 more than the belt was supposed to handle, but that made the numbers change even more rapidly.

Another find: Needed 12000 resources per minute at a foundry. Used a Mk. 10 belt which is also 12000. It wasn't enough to satisfy the demand (not by a lot). Had to use a Mk. 11.

belt can slow down a little on a large save and depending on computer performance

Gotcha! If not for the lag later on in the game that gets so bad, you can barely move (turning down the graphics is only a temporary fix), the only solution is to start a new game. I'm currently on my 31st game. Luckily I can alter the mods to make the game different every time (keeping it interesting).
