Summary0006296: Minecarts' initial velocity is not affected by weight, when pushed or launched from rollers.
DescriptionDwarfs and rollers are able to give the same velocity to both light and heavy minecarts. Due to deceleration not being affected by mass they traverse the same distance.
Steps To Reproduce1. Create a route and a stop.
2a. Construct a roller with power supply on top of the stop.
2b. Set departure condition to "Push ... immediately when empty of desired items".
3. Assign an empty feather tree minecart (lightest load possible) to to the stop and remember the traveled distance.
4. Move the feather tree minecart to the different stop.
4. Assign a platinum minecart filled with platinum nuggets (heaviest load possible) to to the same stop and compare the distance it went with the feather tree one.
