   My coal burning power plant keeps running out of coal and shutting down the whole grid.

   I have multiple self driving tractors shipping coal from the mine to the power plant, but there's a bottleneck in the logistics there somewhere that I haven't quite figured out yet.

   Thinking I may need to build an auxiliary power grid that runs the critical infrastructure that the power plant depends on.

   Even troubleshooting this game is fun 😂

     If the time you run out of coal is more or less predictable, you can workaround it by using some power storages.

     Or you can just try to deliver coal faster, using multiple tractors, a truck (higher capacity) or trains (higher capacity and faster). It all depends on how complicated you wanna go. 😄

     Well, I'm glad you found out. At least now you have some things to think about in the future. 😄

     @badnetmask It wound up being an accidental Mk 1 conveyor belt between my coal miner and the truck station that was bottlenecking the coal... replaced that with a Mk 2 and it's all good now 😂

     I haven't yet unlocked any of those things you mentioned. Literally just got coal generators, tractors, and the first set of steel items.
