Balanced Inventory

Resources are shared between all modules of a train station, the amount in each module is balanced automatically, at a maximum rate of 400/min. Individual Station modules are still loaded/unloaded at the rate of the connected transport, for the highest throughput stations, use transports to each station module.

Example

A Station with 16 Loose Station Modules, feeding a single U-shape Conveyor III will fill the first module at 75/min, and all other modules at 25/min. It would take 9.6 months for all station modules to fill up. If the station uses Linked Storage, it is possible a train could arrive while the station is still filling up. Network trains have a maximum wait time for fill up, and so may depart partial filled, which is inefficient.
