Settings
- Recipe Multiplier: Sets the recipe cost multiplier. For example, a value of 10 makes recipes cost roughly as much as two splitters and undergrounds of the same belt tier.
- Power Cost: Defines energy usage in Joules per item processed, with idle energy drain at half the belt speed in Watts. Set to 0 to disable power cost.

FAQ
Can you disable the power cost?
Yes. You can set the power cost to 0 in the mod settings. This will effectively disable the power requirement for the loaders.
Will you support [X Mod]?
Maybe. If you’d like me to support a specific mod, please post a request in the mod's discussion section. Include the name of the mod and a recommendation for the recipe adjustments.
Why do the loaders say they take 1.2 MW to run?
This is based on how Factorio calculates power usage for the loader entities. From testing, it seems the game assumes the loader will consistently unload 120 items per second (or 2 items per tick, one for each lane). This is likely why the max power cost appears higher than it will be.
##Current State. I haven't played Factorio in a while, and as such, the mod has not been updated. If I get back into Factorio, I will make some updates, but for the time being, this mod is basically abandoned. Feel free to make changes and repost the mod on the mod portal (please kindly credit my mod).
