Captain of Industry

A large truck can be a poor direct feeder for a small recipe buffer: the game-linked wiki says a Truck carries 60 units and Assemblies cannot reserve a 60-unit ingredient batch. First inspect the Assembly's missing input, then check whether the truck has a valid pickup/delivery route and whether its load is arriving at a storage the consumer can reach. For a Truck-fed bulk leg, the wiki recommends unloading to storage and using a belt or pipe for the final feed. Update 4.3 also introduces mixed materials, so inspect cargo contents instead of assuming a load is a single product.
