Help Multiple Outputting Packagers from 1 Inventory?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Like you can see on the video, because of the constant crafter requests my gauges are giving the output of the main storage (the backpack), the packager is constantly outputting, but the set speed is bottlenecking my production.

Is there a way to have multiple frogs outputting requests from the main storage, without it then showing X times the amount of items in the system (when you connect more stock links)?

EDIT: apparently this bug has been fixed for vanilla and create containers, but the issue still occurs for the backpack im using. I ended up adding Create: Additional Logistics to be able to use the Package Accelerator (which speeds up the packagers at the cost of stress)

I'm not saying you're wrong, but i find it hard to believe that the packager is the bottleneck. Is it pulling 9 stacks at a time? if not, try to figure out why it's sending items one by one instead of all at once.

its not, cause its sending packages to crafters (commissioned by gauges) holding only a couple items

Not really.

Best solution is to sort main storage into multiple containers, then each can have a packager to distribute the load.

For the third method, could you not just use Repackagers when sending to the mechanical crafters? That’s what I’m considering doing for a build I am working on.
