Large Fluid Output Buffers
Increase fluids input/output buffer size from 50m^3 to 100m^3 (customizable) on all outputs from production factories
Description
Note: This mod is now integrated into [Machine Buffer Resizer](https://ficsit.app/mod/BufferResizer)
---
This mod increases the fluids (liquids & gases) output buffer size on factories to 100m³ (by default, now customizable). This is to solve the sloop issue where some productions go above 25m³ preventing the machine from outputting the next cycle. This means that full production can never be achieved.
With this mod the machines have enough room to execute the next cycle and empty the output buffer.
As of version 1.0.1-alpha you now have the ability to set a custom buffer size from 50m³ to 500m³ to accommodate those mods that have the ability to create larger fluid outputs. This is configured from the mod settings in the main menu prior to loading the game. If joining a multiplayer game any local settings are overridden by the server (as they should be).
As of version 1.0.3 it is now possible for the mod to automatically calculate an appropriate buffer size on all machines based on it's recipe and production boost without the user needing to do anything. If this mode is enabled the override buffer size is ignored and determined dynamically to be 2x the batch production per cycle. It is also possible to enable buffers to exceed 600m³ in automatic mode (off by default).
With version 1.1.0 you can now alter input buffers as well, has the normal fixed value and automatic modes. Do not forget to enable the "Adjust Input Buffers" checkbox if you require this functionality.
★ Full support for dedicated servers is planned for the near future ★

Frequently Asked Questions
Large Fluid Output Buffers not working after update – what to do?
After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Large Fluid Output Buffers has been updated for the new game version. With Mado Hosting: open the mod manager and click "Update All". If the mod hasn't been updated yet, temporarily remove it so the server starts.
Large Fluid Output Buffers causing crashes in multiplayer – solution
Most common cause: all players must have exactly the same mod version installed. Check server logs for "ModMismatch" or "Version Conflict". Ensure all players use Large Fluid Output Buffers v1.1.2 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.
Is Large Fluid Output Buffers compatible with other Satisfactory mods?
Large Fluid Output Buffers uses the Satisfactory Mod Loader (SML). Generally, SML-based mods are cross-compatible, but mods modifying the same game systems can cause conflicts. Test new mod combinations on a backup save. The Mado dashboard automatically detects known conflicts and warns you.
