About Better Scrap Stacking

From Factorio Mod Portal

Scrap recycling is more likely to stack the output items on belts.

In the base game, recyclers are able to stack items on belts just like stack inserters and big mining drills. But you rarely see it because of their terrible output priority.

This mod rearranges the order of items in the "scrap recycling" recipe, to increase the chance of stacking items on belts.

For best results, the recycler should be much faster than the belt.
