the developer/publisher Notional Games released this game (Beltmatic) this year for 6.99€ on steam, but had released an almost identical game (Beltex) for 4.99€ on steam two years ago. the difference is only that this game is played on square tiles (like shapez) with 4 neighbors per cell, while the other was played on a hexagonal board with 6 neighbors per cell ...

[@BadInfluence710]

I was looking for this comment

[@discrider1]

Figured out how to streamline the 5 production before bridges. If you don't have any extractor upgrades, which you won't at 5, each produces 1 belt of stuff. So we extract 2s onto two belts, splitting one to make 1+2, and the other to add in after. We then feed the 1s and 2s, and the 3s and 2s to Adders on the same input belts. Each input belt maintains a 50:50 mix of input components, so joining the A and B inputs of the Adders directly to an input belt pulls exactly the right inputs from the belts. This consistently produces only 5s, even though you might expect to get 4s and 6s mixed in, at a rate of 1/2 a belt output, without bridges. This reliably produces

The upgrade tab for extractors tells you how many belts it can fill. It could support 2 belts because you upgraded it from 1 to 2 earlier. At the start of the game you likely won't notice(you need so little in terms of numbers and adders etc are so slow you always wind up with backlogs), but planning for the next output upgrade is always a nice idea.
