source item delay time

how do i control it?

have no idea.

at first it was just giving the items over and over with no delay time.

i think it was when they were set to jehovah owned.

then i tried messing with the trigger param, and they wouldnt give items at all.
set trigger param back to 0 and it gave items once then said cant gather more at this location. i have it set to produce 10 nuts every 5 minutes, but it always seems to be in stock anyway.
so im confused, anyone know how to get them working?!

ok thats weird, i built a second item of the same type next to it, now i can go from building to building gathering items without having to wait.

i think it has something to do with accessing another building. it lets me gather after ive accessed another building, but not before.

set the trigger param to 300 and it still let me gather items with no waiting when the 2 buildings are set up next to eachother, going from one building to the next. whether it was owned by me or jehovah.

so anyone know how to control the delay of the source items? other than spacing the buildings a certain distance? or is that the only way?

yeh, currently the rule is that you just can't collect at the same gather location more than once.
for republic/syv, i spaced the source locations out to control the gains.

a better way to control it would indeed be nice :]
