Let's assume :

My extractor is routed to my Launchpad.
My launchpad routed to my basic facility.
My basic facility routed to my launchpad.

My launchpad is full of material (mostly T0)

My basic facility ends its production cycle.

What happens?

1)
- basic facility cannot send the production to the launchpad because its full. Production is lost.
- 3000 units go from launchpad to basic facility to begin a new cycle.
- On next cycle, production will be lost again because extractor will have sent 3000 units to launchpad, which will be full again.

OR

2)
- At the same time, 3000 units of T0 go from launchpad to basic facility and 20 unit of T1 go from basic facility to launchpad. Production is not lost.
- And again, again, and again (assuming launchpad won't become full of T1 soon)


Any tough?

if your launchpad is full then the output from your processor is lost and the processor then grabs another 3,000 units of the P0 material.

Start the day off slow and taper off from there.

I just went to the TEST server today to prove you wrong.

- 1st the required resources will be taken from the Launchpad
- then the products from the previous cycle will be put into the Launchpad

This means that you CAN basicaly have the LP at 100% capacity all the time and still not lose any P1.
