If this is correct then yes it IS the same as getting 42% more cheese on top of the 6570.

That is what it means

whilst this hasn't been confirmed by the dev's it is possible that the 100% includes the bonus

my theory in this is that as the belt/dan level increases it is possible that the limit on the product in the facility increases so the facility will see it as being 100% including the bonus.

im sure before the belts were added to facilities that the limit on petrochemical barrells was 170 now the facility manager says 180

will have to wait and see what i can find out

Pre update I had the oil refinery facility as producing a max of 180 petrochemical barrels. I have a green belt for that but I didnt check how much crude it used - will have to check next time.

Ok Al Im tying my brain up in knots here - help please.

If Im getting(rounding up) 40% free cheese which will use less milk it will mean I STILL need the 3 dairy processing plants wont it? It wont be until I get the top Dans in say the Pizza Restaurant I will need less cheese and be able to get rid of a Dairy Processing plant. Or is that wrong.

What I WILL be able to get rid of is some of the cows and cow sheds.

For starters i wouldent get rid of anything just yet untill you are completely sure of requirements and are ending up with excess of certain products


the results will come clear over time.

Good advice - but am I on the right track? Free cheese means less milk needed, free pizza means less cheese needed? I usually try to put buildings I dont need in storage anyway in case I need them again and I wont get rid of my super cows!!!

I liked it the way it was before (overfilling facilities). I don't want free crude oil barrels I want more! I spent the last year planning crops, trees and flowers required to fill my facilities adding more as I added facilities. Now as I increase in belt/dan levels the requirements go down. Requirements are now an ever changing target. Do I remove trees and flowers no longer needed? Do I try to calculate and sell the extra input materials no longer needed? Part of the challenge of the game for me was matching the inputs to the facilities. Now that is an ever changing target until all products have reached the maximum dan level. I would rather see the over filled facilities and the amount of product completed be changed to match the overfill so it takes the same amount of time or friends working to empty the facilities.
