*For amount it would mean that the material going into the system to make a product adds up exactly to the desired amount of the product you want with no materials left over. | *For amount it would mean that the material going into the system to make a product adds up exactly to the desired amount of the product you want with no materials left over. | ||
*For throughput it would mean that the production of an item would meet the capacity of your production system usual measured in belts e.g. you would need 6 [[Arc Smelter|Mk.I Smelters]] running at full capacity to fill one [[Conveyor Belt|MK.I Belt]] or 6/s, Any more smelters would be a waste since the | *For throughput it would mean that the production of an item would meet the capacity of your production system usual measured in belts e.g. you would need 6 [[Arc Smelter|Mk.I Smelters]] running at full capacity to fill one [[Conveyor Belt|MK.I Belt]] or 6/s, Any more smelters would be a waste since the Mk.1 belt can't hold any more cargo. | ||
'''Black Box''': <br>A completely contained, usually balanced, production line that only requires the input of the raw material and outputs the desired product. An early game example is [[Electromagnetic Matrix|Blue Cubes]]. With 18 [[Matrix Lab|Matrix labs]] , 8 [[Assembler|Assemblers]], 21 [[Arc Smelter|Arc Smelters]], 6 [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]] producing 6 ore/sec, you produce exactly 6 Blue Cubes/sec. In layman's terms "basic thing go in, better thing come out". | '''Black Box''': <br>A completely contained, usually balanced, production line that only requires the input of the raw material and outputs the desired product.
