Exploit with 'Trace width' calculation when stacking fast transfer batteries with slow batteries.

I have 2 batteries with 'level 45' (900,000FE storage), 'trace width' 97 (48,500FE/t transfer speed) both were made by adding 'level 9'/'trace width' 1 batteries to a 'level 9'/'trace width' 97 battery - in other words, the FE storage stacks (adds together) but the transfer speed ignores a slow battery being mixed with a fast transfer speed.

Another example is a level 1 battery will increase storage but not transfer speed even if I add 50 batteries together. However if only 1 of those batteries is a 'trace width' 97 (48,500FE/t transfer speed) then the final battery will have 'level 50' (1,000,000FE) & 'trace width' 97 (48,500FE/t transfer speed).

I do not know if this is intentional or a limitation but it seems to be an exploit if a slow battery & a super fast battery create a super fast battery.

I had to think a moment about this, but I think this is the correct behavior.
When adding batteries together the capacity should increase and the trace width stays the same.
You can imagine the trace width like the width of the copper strips inside a batter,. Adding more cells doesn't change the width of these strips.

I was thinking that might be the case too but it feels OP, like adding a 1 Amp battery with a 4 Amp battery on a cordless power tool - if the tool requires 4 Amps to run then adding a 1 Amp battery in parallel with the 4 Amp will not make the 1 Amp battery into a 4 Amp battery, however 4x 1 Amp batteries, theoretically, can run a 4 Amp item.

Similarly, trying to run a household item with a transformer limited to 1 Amp (such as an electric stove, washing machine, fridge, etc - motors & heaters have a high draw) would not run the items unless you used several 1Amp transformers in parallel.

However I do see what you mean by having 'more lines' allowing more current but realistically if I added more cells to my mobile phone/laptop to make it last longer I'd need to buy more wires to attach the extra batteries to the original battery.

Nevertheless, I'll now be able to use it as is without any guilt!! ;)

Thanks for the mods!
