Explanation
There's a minor bug (unless theres latency I dont see) introduced with the new drone system, as machines appear to be creating a small latency every 4th drone, reducing the output per minute from the hub, if the hub is stationed away from the building. I ran this test at 3 different distances, and for 10minutes each (to account for starting travel time):
Directly next to building (1 space apart for cranes) - 75/m as expected
On the other side of a large island, or approximately 3/4 of a large island away - 73/m
At max range, nearly on the opposite side of a second large island to the west. - 73/m
2 and 3 being the same output sense, as once the "line" is "balanced", they should have the same throughput. Both are slower than directly next to the hub though, I assume because the latency gap doesnt really occur with a minimal travel time, or is so close you dont see it normally (ive seen small bumps down to 74, and then back up).
2 and 3 would sometimes bounce to 74, but very shortly before coming back down to 73 (I assume due to rounding). Not a huge deal, but seemed worth reporting.
