I started playing a pakBritain game in 1930, got a Furniture Factory (FurnitureFactory1920 according to log) which I eventually got around to supplying with planks. However, the furniture factory produces furniture at an extremely slow rate (just a few pallets a month).
Looking closer at the factory details both consumption and production is shown as 1%

It is most likely related (according to experts consulted on IRC *smile*) to:
InputFactor[0]=2 and OutputFactor[0]=2
Is this slow rate intentional?
Looks like a mistake to me - thanks for the spot...
Oops - that'll be my fault again... sorry. *Hits self with trout*.
I'll have to try to fix that this evening... Thank you very much for reporting the fault :-)
In 1.0.2, the Furniture Factory turns 100 units of Planks into one unit of Furniture?
Planks are very condensed wood, while furniture contains lots of air, even after shaving off a fair amount as sawdust, so this doesn't seem to be quite sensible.
It also means your furniture trains or trucks won't ever have very much to do!
Perhaps a 1-to-1 ratio is more sensible?
Thanks for the report. This bug has already been picked up and will be fixed in the next release - merging this topic.
