mark three miners need to have a few outputs as bells yeah we we know about that issue as well that's something that we're gonna fix in the future, the issue with the I know some people also ask like mark six belts the issue with the mark six belt is that we have a issue in the game with, precision of of, the belt so like if you don't have like great performance then the precision of the belts kind of like diminish the faster they go so you can run into like cases where you don't get 100 efficiency even though you should, and that's something we already have issues with with the mark v belt so if you introduce like even faster belts that issue is going to be getting worse and I believe that's an issue with bel, pipes as well so same same kind of thing there like if you're running into issues with pipes where you think like it's you should be getting 300 or 600 or whatever, if you're not getting like if you don't have like 60 fps in most cases, then, that is one of the causes for that and there's no simple solution to that apart from reducing like the, the the flow rate for us, because it's it's like out of our reach technically so to speak it has to do with, how floating point numbers work, so it's like not really feasible to just increase it we'd have to lower it and rebalance everything else, in that in those cases does higher than 60fps affect anything, well yeah you get more precision essentially, so yeah the higher the better but around 60 is like you shouldn't have any issues at that point so you don't need to go like 120, fps just make new numbers all right we'll just reinvent how computers work fantastic let's do it

and, no the rendering has nothing to do with mark six ones like it's not rendering issue like so even if we color cover up the belts one won't solve that
