Transport planning

Inventory capacity: 12 slots. The number of items carried also depends on the selected item's stack size.

Capacity per trip is only one part of a delivery plan. Measure the complete round trip, allow for loading and unloading, and check the belts or pipes at each end. Keep a receiving buffer so production can continue between arrivals. Use the transport guide and calculator to compare routes and estimate the vehicles required.

Use the planner to adjust clock speeds, alternate recipes, available resources, power shards and Somersloops. Your calculations and saved factories stay in this browser.
