Poradnik

The Cargo Shuttle Start Pad is a key logistics structure that enables automated cargo transport between distant locations within your factory network. By serving as the launch point for cargo shuttles, it allows for efficient movement of large quantities of resources across the map.

To function, the pad is linked to a destination pad by name, letting you route shuttles precisely where needed. This naming system provides flexibility and organization, especially as your network grows in complexity.

Throughput for shuttle deliveries depends on the distance between pads, with a typical offload rate at the target pad around 4800 items per minute. This makes the start pad particularly valuable for late-game logistics, where centralized delivery from remote resource sites becomes essential.

Wskazowki

• Pre-program pad names carefully to keep shuttle routes organized and avoid routing errors, especially in large or multi-destination networks.
• Watch for significant power consumption spikes when shuttles are charging at the pads - ensure your power grid can handle these bursts to prevent interruptions.
• To prevent congestion, consider distributing deliveries across multiple start or end pads, especially at busy locations, to keep shuttle traffic flowing smoothly.

FAQ

Can a single Cargo Shuttle Start Pad reliably deliver to multiple targets if they share the same name?

Yes, if multiple destination pads share the same name, shuttles launched from the start pad will distribute deliveries among all matching targets. This allows for flexible load balancing, but keep in mind that the distribution may not be perfectly even if pads have different unloading speeds or are occupied.

What are the best practices for avoiding shuttle congestion at landing pads?

To minimize congestion, use several Cargo Shuttle Start Pad and destination pads at busy hubs. Assign unique names to high-traffic routes or split deliveries across multiple pads to keep shuttle arrivals and departures flowing smoothly. Monitoring pad occupancy and adjusting your network as demand grows will help prevent bottlenecks.
